You want to see an example of how NFTs can be powerful? Adoption will be something similar and powerful as this and not everything will be costly.
Can!
In theory everything can!
In reality you get pixelmon, or how to spend 10k on a a thing that looks like a glitch on a game from the 90's run on a malware infected computer when your house is hit by an EMP.
https://www.fastcompany.com/90726569/nft-horror-pixelmon-investors-lose-disfigured-pokemon-clonesAs a pokemon go player and a father who supports the game by buying tickets and plush thingies (although I must add, they are expensive as fk!, so fk! u Nintendo) it's infurating when crappy games like this try to fly on the hype generated by other games but focus only on the money!
Yesterday was an event day, I walked 20 km with the junior along or on my back with him with a pikacku hat along other parents my age and guess whats, we did it for fun, we tapped some screens till probably you won't be able to take those phones apart just for a chance to miss in 97% the catch of a new pokemon in your bag, which btw is going to be pretty useless in both pvp and pew , but who careas! Now, what if they get NFTs in this and they become tradable and you can freely trade pokemons by paying money and some will simply strat milking the game for this and in every pvp game you will face guys with zero walked km and 0 pokemon caught but with a full line of 15-15-15 with either mewtwos and zacians. It will ruin everything!
You're going to see thoudsn of bots faking GPS coordonates to milk the daily gym drops, you're not going to be able to hold it for an hour and you're going to look at the screen and not understand how two gyms 10 km apart were taken down by the same 6 group of players with weird names in one minute apart.
Make a fun game, make sure NFTs won't destroy the game, then try and see is 99% of your player base won't raise you the middle finger!
Those famous celebrities are not to be underestimated in bringing more people in the nftspace and from there, they will also see and enter the cryptospace.
How many failure do you want me to list?
The celebrities got they money, the buyers ended with, pics they can see on the net!
@stompix. I was reading this article and this made me remember about this argument of ours about NFTs and Pokemon cards. It appears a similar argument is starting to be brought up in congressional hearings hehehe. It also appears that uncle Gary will not be forgiving on tokenized Pokemon cards hehehehe. His years remaining in office will certainly be very entertaining on the bull market.
Gary Gensler admitted in front of the House Financial Services Committee (HFSC) today that a Pokémon card is not a security in his view, under United States law—but the SEC Chair did not give a definitive answer when asked about whether a tokenized Pokémon card could be classified as a security.
The U.S. Representative then asked Gensler whether buying a blockchain token that represents the physical card—essentially, a Pokémon card NFT—would yield the same classification if purchased from an online exchange.
“I’d have to know more,” Gensler replied.Source https://decrypt.co/199009/tokenized-pokemon-card-security-sec-chair-gary-gensler-responds-kindaMy prediction, bitcoin and bluechip NFTs will be the best store of value cryptoassets to protect yourself from securities laws.
