    This video is an opinion and in no way should be construed as statements of fact. Scams, bad business opportunities, and fake gurus are subjective terms that mean different things to different people. I think someone who promises $100K/month for an upfront fee of $2K is a scam. Others would call it a Napoleon Hill pitch.

    Something feels deeply wrong about corporations releasing NFTs under Stan Lee's name, despite him being dead and likely objecting to NFTs given how he was in life. It's almost like they're puppeteering a corpse and making it say "give us money!" and it feels disrespectful to his memory.

    You said it well! These celebrities have no incentive to see it out that their project succeed. All they care about is building initial hype and receiving that first paycheck. After that, what motivation do they have to keep promoting the project? There is no accountability. There is no utility. All there is, is unsubstantiated hype that the NFTS will never be able to sustain..

      This is absolutely true, but I think it's also missing a bigger point. What would care mean anyway? They are non fungible by definition. They don't do anything. The only thing you can do to keep the project valuable is...keep building more hype, forever. The moment you stop, they crash....because hype is literally all they are . If they had intrinsic value they wouldn't crash. If they at least had artistic value, maybe they wouldn't crash. But they're not art, they are "the proof of possession" of (in most cases, absolutely bad, replaceable, soulless, talentless, and thus economically worthless) art.

    The running theme of these celebrity NFTs is the celebrity is rarely involved. What usually happens is that some behind the scenes entourage sees the easy money, gets the celebrity that has no idea what NFTs are sign off on it but the celebrity has no involvement at all outside MAYBE the original announcement. Wich is why the 1 NFT doing well has (what it seems like) an actively involved celebrity.

      I am a Japanese living in Japan. kamikoto...I have never heard of this name, but a Japanese person can easily tell from the name that this is a fake. I would expect this to be made in China under the guise of being made in Japan. The description of this brand also makes it immediately clear that it is a scam. Because it says "made in Honshu" without specifying the pinpoint place of origin. Where in Honshu? In the U.S., it would be like writing "Made in the Midwest. American person would surely think, "Where in the Midwest?". This kind of scam is also common in the Japanese version of Amazon, but most Japanese would immediately notice the unnaturalness of the name and recognize it as a scam. I can say with confidence that this brand will never expand in Japan. They are using their "image" to commit fraud. I am concerned that this kind of scam is spreading in the US.

      You're pretty much correct.
      I won't go into details about blockchain or crypto, just know that nfts work through those technologies.
      Basically there is a database that keeps track of which nft belongs to whom. When you sell your nft that database updates. The point is that the database cannot be modified by anyone outside of buying and selling, that is achieved using blockchain and crypto.
      So when you buy an nft, you buy a record in that database that says it now belongs to you. The record itself, though, will only contain a link to an image/video/etc, so the actual image will not be saved there (if link stops working, say bye bye to your nft lol). That's because storing a large amount of data in there is super expensive because of the blockchain.
      Crypto bros believe that having an nft is the same as owning a digital thing. But it is just a database, there are no legal consequences if somebody screenshots your nft or just downloads it.
      It's a lot like scams in 90-s and 2000-s when companies were popping up that let you "pre-order" land on the moon. The problem is that 1. They didn't actually sell anything real 2. There were multiple companies, so who owns it in the end?
      Total scam.
      Tomorrow somebody could launch NFT 2 and resell the same images that were already sold, so it makes 0 sense.

    I wonder if that is an animated background on green screen or your actual filming studio room? :) Love it

    Whenever I see faze I think of save the kids scam
    Whenever I see Travis Scott I think about the dead childrens that idolize and looked up to him
    Now we can remember these scams

      Yeah, unfortunately it's not a global audience that's aware of this shit, but I look at John Wall different. Part of it is the lack of reporting.

    Everytime the video shows each nft "art" I shake my head.

    Biggest worry people should have about buying NFT's is that they are buying jpg's.

    🤣🤣 In the middle of this video, there was a low budget advertisement on an NFT called "lion king"(?) And i was on thr Floyd's world part of this video. Hilarious.

    Dude I had no idea this many celebrities were promoting nfts - this is crazy, and what is even crazier is how people are still buying them. None of it makes any sense
