Can’t wait for the handful of crypto dorks to roll in here talking about how Kotaku never says anything nice about NFTs and no one understand their potential except for them and it’s all so unfair because how are they ever going to become fake crypto Pokémon pyramid scheme landlords if people know that it’s just a…

I’m sorry that you have to write about this middle school shit.

Its all a scam. They are either in on the initial scam and expect to flip the thing to idiots looking to buy anything crypto related.

That’s corporate-speak for “We are VERY UPSET that our corporate lobbyists were unable to make this go away by threatening to withhold corporate PAC money”

They’re more than free to leave the state and head to Bermuda or Barbados to be with the shell companies they set up to avoid taxes.

That doesn’t make sense. Cheating moots skill, it does so because it gives you an unfair edge over players of the same skill level. Being good doesnt help you overcome the cheater’s mechanical advantages and thus ruins competition.

Months upon months of COProphagia in the mainstream press and wider culture will tend to result in this sort of crap.
