I don't own baseball cards or pokemons either (Score:2)
The entire internet seems to be hell-bent on giving me FOMO on NFTs. But I don't care - my life is not any worse off for not owning things like rare collectible cards, and it will certainly not be worse off without these.
You gotta admit it's pretty cool though.

I consider that it's probably better to own physical items like raw metal than electronic items if the world goes sour. You can almost always trade a piece of copper or iron for some food.

What nonsense is that? Food has value in a crazy world. Wrenches do too. Raw metal seems worthless.

Until I navigated my browser over to opensea dot io and experienced the clusterfuck going on over there. Even worse if you have webfonts disabled for security reasons. Even when you do download Metamask, the browser plugin ETH wallet that the site requires for any sort of use, the experience doesn't improve.
Lots of kinks to work out before this stuff can graduate from beanie babies to something socially useful.

Sooner or later, somebody will find a critical vulnerability in the blockchain concept, and the whole house of cards will come crashing down. It's an interesting experiment, and might lead to better variations in the future, but I'm not ready to trust my hard-earned money to a piece of software that could be hacked.
Sure, banks can be hacked too. But there are legal protections in place in that event. If somebody hacks my bank and steals my money, the FDIC guarantees that I get my money back, even if the ban

Bingo. People investing in NFTs want to know how valuable they are. This is coming from someone who owns NFTs though...

At present, NFTs are solely being used to create artificial scarcity, in order to separate fools from their money. Maybe, sometime in the future, a reasonable use for NFTs will turn up. This has not yet happened.
I could see NFTs being used as a way for libraries to loan digital material .Libraries pay to legally lend out books, etc. NFT could assure the library does not loan out more digital copies of a book than it paid for.
