Ahhh, you are correct. I still maintain that it is a joke, however haha

Oh god, I know... I assume you're probably talking about NFTs as a whole, but even as someone in the space, these dumb tokens give us all a bad name...

There are actually useful NFTs! Like you can get an NFT name like example.eth (like a domain), and use it instead of an address in most Ethereum software. That's so much better than stupid apes...

edit: also, I really appreciate the acknowledgement; people can be really, uh, hostile.

No worries! Gotta admit when you're wrong so you can grow as a person :)

And yeah, I'm absolutely sure there are many positive uses of NFTs, storing different varieties of data within a distributed blockchain. It's the speculative part that is just absolutely insane.
