why on earth does the incredibly wealthy heir to John Lennon’s buckets of money need to shill NFTs ffs?

Almost none of these people actually need money. They're just too weak to turn down blatant money grabs. I guess it's to be expected when people are dropping 5 figures to own the rights to a GIF.

anyway so-- its even dumber than i thought? its not people selling each other beanie babies, its people selling each other pictures of beanie babies?

Sometimes, but people are also selling themselves the beanie babies with NFT's. I sell myself my own NFT for $200k, then sell it to myself again for $250k, then sell it to myself again for $300k, then put it for sale at $400k. You might be able to trick somebody into thinking that it's worth the $400k if you can cover your tracks. It's also got uses for money laundering. This isn't money I made selling drugs, it's money I got from selling my NFT to somebody who definitely was not me.

That's the value of 1 ETH. .005 ETH is more like $20 but still nah. I'm sure it will be worth it to some people who will duplicate the most expensive NFT's though, so hopefully we get some tears from the true believers.

what is a "brandon" and why must he/they/it go?

There was a nascar race where the crowd started chanting gently caress Joe Biden and the commentator thought they were saying let's go Brandon. It became a meme and now everyone and their mother is trying to cash in on it.

This is America. If people are going to pay you money to do something easy you have to do it no matter how much money you already have, or how much you hate doing it. If you aren't a slave to money are you even really alive?

Scarcity equals value so if she's not gonna fart anymore, that means the value of the jars of farts that are already in circulation must go up. They should make a crypto that's backed by fart jars so it can't be inflated by printing more fart jars, and you know that you can always exchange your cash for that sweet sweet tangible gas.

so I haven't paid a ton of attention to crypto in years, but I thought the whole thing with this nonsense was that unlike, say, United States dollars, these things have value because there's a limited supply.

The supply of some of the coins is fixed. The supply of the fake money used to buy and pump the value of those coins is not fixed.

did you know australians call motorcycle riders "bikies"? like i think they use this term for the criminal gang type too. omg i'm so scared of the bikies

Bikie gangs are hilarious. I remember there was a leader of one that had some ridiculously Australian name like Chopper Sidebottom, and during an interview with him, he volunteered the reporter for a game of Russian roulette. She didn't even know what was happening until the gun was against her head. Then *click* and everyone busts up laughing.
