Who could have seen this coming

When I first learned about NFTs I figured I was simply too stupid to understand it. There was simply no way it was as dumb as it sounded.

Turns out I was right, it was way, way dumber than it sounded.

There are lots of legitimate but boring uses of NFTs, just not the kind that make the news like pictures of monkeys.

No there isn’t. There’s lots of ways you can shoehorn NFTs in, but it’s always a poor fit. People always try and claim that NFTs will solve some sort of problem that is already solved with existing technology.

There is no problem NFTs can solve that can’t also be implemented much more cheaply and effectively with an SQL database from the 90s.
