Clickbait Title: I spent three months living in the metaverse and now I'm starvingThe metaverse salespeople have a weird fixation with Animal Crossing, in sp...
I'm certain of it. I actually ran some neopets scams back in the early YouTube days, promise free shit if you send login, clean em out and sell buffed out accounts for irl money. Which was not nice, don't do it, but it was an easy way to get drug money. Regardless having first hand knowledge of running a scam, you realize that even as a scammer you're a middle man and someone else is making money off your scam. In this case it was neopets. I'd clear out accounts full of rare crap and whatever and neopets gains by further engagement cause most WILL restart after being hacked and many will then take shortcuts to get back to where they were by paying for in game stuff instead of grinding it a second time. It's a system almost perfectly made for that relationship.
When a grift gets stale you gotta do it in a different way. Same fundamentally but you gotta dress it up different. And these are high stakes gambling addicts making an infrastructure for the casinos and thinking they'll.come out on top. Uncut Gems Grindset
NFT's are pretty dead and crypto issuing back to the shadow realm. If these same people are pouring money into it, I can guarantee this won't stick either. The frontiers for new capital are completely exhausted and monopolized, and what these people don't get is thar although the space to post online and create online content is infinite, the ability to monetize things online is just as finite as in the real world because that's how capitalism functions, there are limits on expansion because money is funneled up and eventually there's none left to funnel except for things like gambling or speculation. And things like that never really hit the mainstream. You don't tske your family out to play the slots. It's a desperate attempt to claw out a space in capitalism that's either already filled or will never exist. They're combing the oceans for an undiscovered continent to colonize, barring any atom splitting level science thing, it's just people passing the same fish back and forth at the top and deluded gamblers who think owning the land the casino is on and hardly even charging rent cause they wanna bring new casinos makes them smarter than the casino that has cheap rent.
