Every tech friend I know is deeply cynical about NFTs and pretty much everything else now because anything that happens is immediately turned into some sort of grift by ravenous capitalists.


Most of all my tech friends are skeptical about most things we encounter in life. We're just naturally curious and ask questions to learn more. Asking questions about NFTs and the benefits of cryptocurrencies has led to a consensus of it being mostly pointless in the case of NFTs or a way to skirt around regulations in the case of cryptocurrencies.

The people I've found that have embraced NFTs and altcoins are the ones that are much more focused on business and making money rather than the tech under it all.


> has led to a consensus

Do you have a source or some proof for this statement?


I meant among many of my friends, so it's all anecdotal.
