        I remember when NFTs first appeared. I misunderstood their purpose thinking they were a clever way to transfer intellectual property rights for something. Only to later learn that it’s basically poop, completely worthless.

          NFTs are a clever way to transfer intellectual property rights for something.

          It’s just that the something is worthless… And IP is imaginary.
