pure hype, there is no future and will definitely be forgotten, the nft market alone has crashed 95%, how does it have a future, as far as I know most digital properties use nft.
A report by dappGambl based on data provided by NFT Scan and CoinMarketCap showed that out of 73,257 NFT collections the researchers looked at, 69,795 of them, or slightly over 95%, had a market cap of zero ether.
SOURCE-- I feel sorry for those who fell for the NFT hype, now the asset they bought is no longer worth anything, or the value is very far from the price they bought it at. Physical and digital property assets are very different, even the ownership documents are different, people buy NFTs which can be generated using AI in just a few hours.
This is just not true. They have gone trough one cycle of bear and bull and look how volatile they were. Who knows what's happening next cycle. If you had bought bored ape right a the start, and not sold it, it would have brought you near a million dollars just with airdrops alone. It's really misleading to say they are down so much from ATH, when there was an insane explosive spike before it.
I am not saying that people should buy any of them, far from it. But not seeing the parallel to altcoin fall of 2014-2015 is pretty amazing to me. Yeah they are basically stupid, and bling of the most annoying new money crypto bros, but markets are made of stupid, and that's where the profits are.
You brought up an interesting paradox: moving from physical to virtual assets while still figuring out how to deal with the stability and security that physical things often offer. There is, in fact, a change toward intangible assets that can be seen in the rise in interest in digital assets like the metaverse, NFTs, and cryptocurrencies. But your doubts about how long these digital goods will last bring up an important point. How do we balance the desire for stability with the fact that the digital world changes all the time?
There is a real problem with the worry that information wont be stored on the blockchain but on centralized servers. Could using a blockchain that cant be changed be the answer? Could be. Digital assets can be lost, especially if the site they're stored on fails. This needs to be fixed right away. It might be helpful to focus on coders who put decentralization and censorship resistance first. There are a lot of moving parts, and your hope for a good result is shared by many.
What do you mean? We are already using a blockchain that can't be changed for the key information. Blockchains are just decentralized ledgers and should be kept as minimalistic and fast as possible, they are not meant to store a whole game in them, as they are already too big. It would be unpractical, bulky, expensive and extremely slow. And most importantly, not build for it.
You run the servers with systems that are build for it, they are fast, responsive and cheap. In short, they are build for it. There's a good reason you don't run some servers on excel spreadsheets code or similar either.
