Dead NFTs: The Evolving Landscape of the NFT Market
dappgambl.com
TL;DR: The NFT market has drastically declined since its peak in 2021, with most NFT collections having no value. There's an oversupply of NFTs, leading to a buyer's market, and environmental concerns due to energy consumption. Top NFTs also struggle to maintain value, and the future of NFTs depends on utility and genuine value rather than speculation.

NFT technology will not go away. It will be in a different form, not trading cards with shitty jpegs attached
NFT's are nothing more than digital receipts. They do not stop copying what ever the receipt points to and they are nothing special at all.
If the web address your NFT points to disappears due to the site shutting down. Your NFT is beyond worthless.

To "own" one means having your ownership recorded on a digital ledger—nothing more.
Digital receipts are easy to do without mining crypto. Just send an email. Use a postgres database. There's literally nothing offered by nfts that can't be done less stupidly another way.
Is that like the 4 days of comments Beehaw lost the other day, or like when Amazon decided that people who bought certain ebook, had no longer bought it?
As in, going through data recovery, or through courts? Is that really smarter than having a proof of ownership 24/7 in perpetuity, that you can even sell to others?
They just stop the seller from claiming you no longer have the right to a copy.
Has an NFT as proof of ownership ever actually been tested in a court of law?
Until it does, the claims the NFT shills make mean zero.
I don't think you understand: a DRM-locked digital content doesn't need, or care about, "a court of law" to work or not with a given key.
Instead of listening to the shills of GIF NFTs, centralized app/media shops, or centralized governments, try to think about what the technology actually means.
You’re right. It will evolve into a different even more stupid scam on the blockchain. And people will fall for it again.
