Greetings Steemians,
I've been playing around with some Eth profits from Gods Unchained, and it's been pretty interesting checking out what the world of crypto has to offer these days.
In all respects, you could say I'm in somewhat of a "Steem bubble" which I'm ok with, because Steem is the best crypto asset there is in my opinion, for its massive social media utility, and blockchain scalability. Being that there are no fees for transacting, I could see Steem becoming a favorite for crypto gaming in the future.
So, playing around with Eth, I ended up with all kinds of different NFT's, and messed with some risky d-apps that I probably shouldn't have. I might end up losing, but I do have some assets around in places that could potentially bring me some nice profit.
At the end of the day it's a learning experience, and if one doesn't take some chances here and there, big gains might be missed in our early stages of adoption. I would say it's still very much early stage. Big changes are likely to come as the mainstream eye gains traction I think, and hopefully these will be the changes we like to see. One way or another things are not slowing down a single bit.
So, anyone who's not sure what an NFT is, I found the information on Wikipedia. So go ahead and check that out if you are not familiar with Non Fungible Tokens. (If you're interested to know.)
In layman's terms, the way I understand NFT's, they are basically a token with a "unique identifier", which of course makes them one of a kind and identifiable on the blockchain. (someone correct me if I'm wrong and not understanding correctly) These tokens can have artwork added. (which I'm pretty sure are stored on servers and not blockchains) Without the artwork in many cases, I'm not sure they would really have much utility, and I expect some projects will flop, and there will be a bunch of NFT's around that are just useless tokens.
I've found all kinds of projects going on. From literal artwork, to little pixelated punks, there is just all kinds of NFT's.
So what kind of NFT's has futuremind been dabbling in..? lol
I crafted some unique marbles
I named this marble "MeekMonster" and currently have it up for sale on opensea. It's way overpriced and I really don't expect even any offers on it, but you know.. I really like that marble and think that monster could use a hug.
I crafted a marble card with one of my favorite Jimi Hendrix songs Purple Haze. I did have it up for sale, but decided this is just too cool and I should keep it. The right price and I would probably part with it. It's an interesting project, where you can create cards from approved websites "links", once you NFT the link, it cannot be added to another, and this links to soundcloud. So I feel like I own some digital rights or something :P
I got some bomb weed and feel like I might have screwed up with that one.. I went a little overboard and blew a ton of Eth, but at least I have the assets in the event that it blows up. I definitely have some weed for sale on opensea.
Some epic knock your socks off Chernobyl.
I have some cryptodozer NFT's that I won't even show because I am very upset about some of the game functions and feel it's designed to make you spend more and more crypto. I really wouldn't recommend it, but that's just me, play at your own risk, and be prepared to spend some serious Eth if you do..
One project that I find very cool for novelty purposes is ethwords.
I can't believe no one has thought of this word yet. not really a word actually an acronym
That's right, I own the acronym POWH (Proof of Weak Hands) a pyramid game popularized across multiple blockchain networks.
I have it listed at a very high price but honestly I would probably take a pretty cheap offer lol. Bitcoin has a 1 Eth offer currently, so some people are willing to pay some serious Eth for these. I figured, why not just list it high and see if I get a nice offer? You never know!
One of the downsides I see is a potential for an over saturation. I really do think that we will continue to see more and more and more NFT's and only the one's that have some really good utility and entertainment value will likely make it past these early days.
So that's it for now. I think these NFT projects are pretty interesting, and have some great potential for the future.
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you're all having a wonderful day!
