The NFT thing feels fake....

I just can't see them doing it....I really hope I am right.

    I am seeing hope that this might be faked.

    But who knows honestly?

    Someone on Reddit showcases that the company responsible for the NFTs are stealing artwork and logos from other companies, not just BHVR.

    Yes, totally. They would never do what everyone says they are doing regarding NFT.

    Hopefully it's fake. If it is fake though what does it say about BHVR that so many people genuinely think they would do something like this? BHVR really needs to work on their PR because right now it's way too easy for people to think "yeah, they'd do something crappy like that."

    I pray to the entity its fake. I would lose so much faith in them as developers if they didn't, how can anybody be that willingly ignorant of the effects of NFTs?

    I don't know if keeping silent means it's real. I have no idea how it works to communicate, but I don't think it's as easy as coming and say: hey! It's real/fake!

    I do REALLY hope it's a fake. I don't want it to be a real thing...

    Seeing how the earliest statement we are getting will be on tuesday there is no real point in worrying about it now

    Can someone explain what NFT is?

    copying from potassium's thread with the same question:


    They are cr*ptocurrency like... well, they claim to be art, but they are more... bookmarks to art you have no control over.

    It's all a massive scam.

    and it's a massive scam that wastes massive non-renewable energy, thus blasting as much co2 into the air as the country of norway in several years.

    as others put it:

    Imagine you like the Mona Lisa. Like, REAAAALLLLLY like the Mona Lisa. You can go to a dude that doesn’t need to be in no way associated with the Mona Lisa, da Vinci, or the Louvre, hand them a boatload of cash, and in return they tear down a measurable amount of the Amazon, mulch the trees, and make a piece of paper saying “X (you) owns the Mona Lisa”. Then they hang that piece of paper in a broom closet. And that’s an NFT.

    also the above broomcloset is a very specific one the person who sold you the thing can brick up whenever the like, without anything you can do about it.

    This is confusing and disappointing at the same time.

    I have been unhappy with BHVR's decisions since 2019, but this...this is a whole new level.

    seeing how they just banned the person to first speak out against it... yeah, something is going on.

  • I hope it's fake but it makes me worried that behaviour are not confirming or denying it.

  • That post didn't get removed though, they just banned GoodBoyKaru.


    I would be worried if they removed those types of posts but they haven't.

    It's a holiday weekend for Canada. There's not going to be any response from BHVR until Tuesday.
