Well fungible means readily exchangeable so an NFT can only be something meaningless that can't be exchanged for anything. Great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great. It all sounds too bad so far to go for. It's like someone buying something with worn socks, all you can swap them for is worn socks. It's not got a cash value and what football club will sell a player for something they can't backpocket. NFT's are litterally monopoly money Bitcoin is dodgy enough.

Something where they try to get a load of people to spend £250 on a pixel of digital art so they can raise a billion quid to take a league 2 club to the European super league. Or something.

Apiece of digital art does have a value, if a bunch of dicks decide ro do it the result does actually have a value. Remember years ago a kid did it and raised a shedload, which ultimately had a cash value. That was fungible. I he had swapped it for tiddlywinks counters they have no value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
