Disgusting holodez, even worse than the holocaust, never again.

They are going to try VERY hard to slander Nick after last night’s massive livestream. Claiming the shooter was a groyper. Reminder to not fall for the blatant astroturfing. They are afraid. Very afraid.

It would be OK if you were able to somehow tie NFTs to real-world pieces of art as a means of authenticity.
As it stands, no matter how pretty a piece, no-one is going to pay thousands of dollars -- outside of retarded hype-beast "the next BitCoin" buy-in gold rushes like the BAYC were -- for digital artworks.
They're just not.

You can't be as impressively creative or impressively imaginative with digital artwork as you can with a real-world piece.
You just can't.

Real-world pieces *actually* exist, don't need NFTs to be authentic (they are naturally authentic, as in, they are simply themselves), can have more impressive dimensions, can vary in texture and material, and can occupy a space impressively whereas NFTs are just ... a .jpeg on a big screen at best.
Sure, you can make the big screen look pretty ... it might even be a very expensive HD 10k resolution screen or something.
Hell, you may even place a pretty picture frame around the TV and go down the hyperreality route, make it look like an actual picture in a gallery.
But it's not a picture in a gallery --
it's a fucking .jpeg on a fucking LCD screen.

You can make digital media look like anything without much effort; and they all use the same dimensions, they exist on a flat screen on a fixed two-dimensional plane; and you can make perfect 1:1 digital copies of all the pixels and the image hash with just a right-click and save. Or fuck it, a copy and a paste if you want to get technical.

With real-world art, it can be big, small, 2D, 3D, play with light, play with shadow, play with both light and shadow, be textured, be smooth or rough, be jagged, be made of a whole variety of interesting materials, can invoke emotion through sensory input like smell or hearing, can be interactive, play with their environment, comprise multiple medias at once; and so on and so on ad infinitum possibly.

A .jpeg on a screen is just always gonna be a .jpeg on a screen no matter how you dress that window (or screen).
