Did you know that a NFT is just a hyperlink [1] to an image thats usually hosted on Google Drive or another web2.0 webhost?

People are dropping millions on instructions on how to download images. That’s why you can right click save-as because they are standard images. The image is not stored in the blockchain contract.

As web2.0 webhosts are known to go offline (404 errors) this handy torrent contains all of the NFT’s so that future generations can study this generations tulip mania and collectively go…“WTF? We destroyed our planet for THIS?!”

      Ikr! With how much people went on about NFTs, I always thought the actual image data was stored on the blockchain or something like that XD

      when the NFT crowds finds out that an image that appears the same can have different hashes, they’ll want to ban compression algorithms too :) :)

      And if the link goes down then it’s even more useless.

      If at least it would link to a decentralized/distributed network like IPFS then it would make marginally more sense.
