@lukasesch @tinyruin @withFND I don't know, that article doesn't really debunk much of anything IMO. It admits that ETH is (currently) a huge waste of energy. Sure, more transactions don't directly consume more power, but more NFTs *do* make ETH more popular, which brings more miners, which wastes power.On twitter.com

@lukasesch @tinyruin @withFND I do find the technology behind ETH interesting (smart contracts are an interesting way to re-ify code), but almost everything about this NFT hype stirs me the wrong way, especially the aesthetics of it all. The ads these platforms run feel exactly like the bitcoin trading ones.Permalink On twitter.com

@lukasesch @tinyruin @withFND In fact the fact that they have that kind of cash is just weird, and the role the platforms play in this is completely counter to the principles of crypto itself (decentralization, own your own stuff). So if you care about crypto for its tech and principles, why pay that cut?Permalink On twitter.com
