      Not necessarily, as I understand, the floor price is just theld buy one at. i could make a new nft, list it at 500 billion and that would be the floor price, even if no trade ever happens.

      There’s also some stuff where the nfts get used as collateral for loans without any intention to pay back the loan. The borrower defaults, keeps the money, the lender is stuck with a useless nft. No actual sale happened, so the floor price didn’t move, even though the loan was likely for less than the floor price.

      Crypto is full of this kind of misleading metrics, same as market cap

    Tally Labs launched a project called The Writers Room, which let holders of an associated NFT project dictate storytelling elements. That led to the creation of an Ape-focused novel written by Neil Strauss, a New York Times bestselling author.

    Somehow I had not heard of this particular idiocy.

      ✔️ weird
      ✔️ for the rich (and money launderers)
      ✔️ out-of-touch

      How could Trump not love NFTs?

    I hated how loads of companies appeared out of nowhere to cash in on this. I feel for people who tried to make an investment hoping it will be the next Bitcoin. I’m really glad it died on its arse though. Pretty sick of seeing shit images of cartoon dogs and monkeys.
