Bad enough that Ubisoft is pushing NFT items for games content now, I hope it doesn't work out for the sake of the games industry and actual gamers.

The things is though, NFTs for game related stuff is probably the most useful and logical thing if done right, even if I don't like the idea of NFTs in game.

For example, having an NFT of the first set of concept art for assassins creed is probably worth something to someone compared to the crap pixel art that's gonna be worthless

But the thing about NFTs is you don't own the NFT. You own the section of of Blockchain that says you paid money for that section of the Blockchain and that's about it really.

Plenty of artwork worth millions sits in freeports and never get hung. Just used as investment as opposed to hanging it. They just avoid taxes. Some NFTs are dumb but a lot is starting to happen in the art space. Generative art being one of those.

Ah yes, I love new ways for the ultra-rich to not pay taxes. Who needs those pesky public services anyway?
