On this timeline, that’s a valid prediction.

It’s almost impressive how quickly NFTs have degenerated from at least going through the motions of being a type of cultural artifact to just selling the promise of being able to extract rents.

Not surprising, and not the right kind of impressive; but still.

Did you know that bullshit is also unique? Using DNA, cow patties can be precisely traced back to the individual animal. For a small fee I will name the bull after you. It will then be ground into a fine mince and made into hamburgers. You may collect the e-burgers or resell them. You will be entitled to a percentage of the price of each burger.

Every time I think NFTs have reached peak stupid, they smash right through the bottom of that barrel and hey, turns out there’s an entire other barrel down there, ready to get scraped.

. . . convert hexadecimal to pure number . . .

What does that even mean?

Hexadecimals are numbers. Or do they mean they’re gonna go fetch the Platonic ideal of numbers?

and what ever he’s doing, I will name doing that thing after you, and it will be a real bargain.

and to be clear, it will be giving me your money that I will name after you, and not the actual doing of the thing.

So how long until somebody rights a smart contract virus that just fucks the system?

God knows there is nothing protecting these systems because security was too expensive to implement.

For an enormous fee, I will sell you the NFT of the site (currently) hosting the coordinates of the telephone pole where the drawing of the star is posted. Very few polar bears will die in the mining of this token, so basically you will be saving the planet.

Some guy at artnet actually contacted the ADL about this theory, inadvertently giving rise to the pernicious idea that NFTs have a nonzero value that’s worth defending.
