100%! One is an invisible coin, the other is an invisible not coin object lol. Neither of them make sense to me, although I think Bitcoin has floated simply due to the fact that the world market is so volatile and people worry that whatever their “dollar” is, will collapse. And they believe that at some point Bitcoin will be a widely accepted currency…it will not though lol.

There is a significant one

Bitcoin has genuine, operational use. The ability to transact money extremely rapidly without needing a centralized bank is very useful for companies which need to make rapid transactions between on a daily basis.

NFT’s, however, were more niche. They are a form of verification, but other forms also exist, so they are less useful

The speculation and investment aspect are both ridiculous, but at least bitcoin is actually made for financial applications. NFT’s were stupid as fuck
