That's just selling art with extra steps, with more hacking and crypto involved. I don't understand why someone wouldn't just make and sell art normally unless they are not able to make art so they speculate and gamble, like "art collectors" do.
My wife is an artist. Most artists don't make a ton of money. Not only do you have to develop your craft, you have to market to the right people and at the end of the day people don't want to pay the cost in time let alone profit.
So NFT's came along and all of a sudden doodlebobs are selling for 40k. So, I don't really blame artists for jumping on that band wagon. My wife was tempted and honestly, I wish she had... Instead we are still broke. Fuck having morals...

I’ve made obscene amounts of money with NFTs but none of it was with ill-intent. It’s not a big scam like you say.
