Honesty, who wouldve seen this coming?
You: My crypto art is secured with the blockchain!
Me: [prt scn]
this is awesome. i hope hundreds of millions of dollars get dumped into NFTs and then it all just gets deleted. money shredded from existence
Update: looks like I can’t get my NFTs back. Even though fraud has been confirmed and I know exactly where my NFTs are sitting at this very moment.
Hacker wins. Secondary market purchaser wins. I lose.
Going to explore other options if I can. Doesn’t sit right with me.
... I just... I don't... I can't....
:cat-confused:
The system designed specifically to prevent any regulatory oversight or transaction cancellation won’t let you take your money back from the thief? Who could have seen this coming?

How does your student loan debt make you feel? Tell us in 3 emojis or less.
I'd buy this one so that I could legally use it as the cover art for a What is to be Done? reprint.
No, you see, these bits and bytes are totally mine. I have this certificate that says so.
ctrl-c, ctrl-v
Brooo, wtf, that's illegal, you can't fucking do that
Imagine the Sistine chapel just disappears because someone forgot their password
lmao it doesn't even affect the actual art, it's basically a certificate saying you totally own it bro.
It's as real as Bitcoin, because it's pretty much the same technology.
Edit: at best it's a dumb way to buy a license to use a copyrighted work.
I wish I was enrolled in a High Level Art Program, because I just want to steamroll clowns who though an NFT Art Market made any sound sense.
I've got plenty to say about the Art Market as is. It's very needlessly exclusive, and it's only exclusive for the sake of demanding more money on works, which then demand more money but never on the merits of the work itself, but the market perpetuating speculative value and making a bubble. It sucks.
Has anyone informed the hacker
and secondary market purchaserthat this violates NAPGood point. It’s always just to purchase things with money regardless of context. :ancap-good:
Schadenfreude intensifies.
Shit's dumb and I'm glad he got ripped off. I truly hope this happens over and over until the whole system collapses.
Yeah, this NFT/ cryptoart bullshit disgusts me, fuck all of the people involved. The planet itself suffers so these idiots can profit from completely artificial scarcity, so they deserve to suffer in kind.
bro that ain't nothin
in 1999 jessie from the street over stole a beanie baby at my house during a sleepover
Reminds me I took a DeLorean from a kids pile of toys. I had none and figured they weren't as appreciative of it considering the cultural significance of that movie.
This is meaningfully different from when it was in his account in plain sight, somehow.
LOL
I hadn't thought about it, but people lose their bitcoin wallets like all the time
