This NFT thing reminds me of emu ranching in the 90s. Huge money was moved selling them for breading but no one actually ate them.

MarcusSA posted:It wasn’t just the meat but also the Fat which was supposed to be big money. The problem was the cost of the feed to feed the fuckin things and also the fact that no one was actually killing them so there ended up being loads of people with fat birds that no one could do anything with. I had an emu burger at the county fair once. It wasn't bad. Didn't taste like chicken but wasn't bad.

MarcusSA posted:Emu is red meat which is kinda unique. It’s also really lean and super easy to over cook. I'm surprised they aren't pushing it again as some kind of compromise between eating cows and insects.

Coeurl Marx posted:Way back in the thread but what the gently caress. I remember we had one around here when I was young, they sold emu jerky and had their bigass eggs on display. I had no idea it was some crazy fad, I thought it was just the product of a local crazy or something. The last I ever remember hearing about it, some of the Emus had broken out and were continually outsmarting local cops lmao. I'm kind of surprised they arn't trying to bring it back. Emu meat seems like a nice compromise between the high carbon footprint of beef and eating God damned bugs.

Why are they still doing this? Gamers didn't want NFTs, only speculators did, and most of them got out when the market collapsed.
