Someone with a healthy dose of skepticism. Someone who has seen it enough times before (see below). Someone who likes to make sure people aren't getting suckered into buying crap so some unscrupulous vultures can get rich exploiting them.
No kidding. It's the same market that said every shitcoin ICO supposedly had value. And maybe they did for as long as their '15 minutes of fame' lasted. And then they took on their true value. Zero. This is no different. It's just some opportunists looking to make a quick buck and leave a bunch of bagholders in their wake (again). All that's left to be be seen is what the next snake oil pitch will be after this latest fad runs its course.
//EDIT: And in response to the following reply from franky1, keep in mind he's an illiterate halfwit. He can't understand a fraction of what anyone writes here. If he ever accurately comprehends my stance on anything, I'd be genuinely amazed.
You realize that 52% of the crypto market are those ICO coins right? Ethereum was ICO too, there is plenty of value there. You have your mind stuck in 2009/2010? Open your mind, even tho ordinals seems to be a stupid concept, finally the market decides what has value or not, you shouldn’t be that arrogant to call everything except bitcoin a zero value thing.
Even tho bitmaps aren’t unique (you can mint the same text over and over again), but the market organized itself to count only the first mints as the valid ones, floor price of bitmaps went up more than 500% in the past weeks. Obviously there is value here even tho it looks technically stupid.
You look like those old men that don’t tolerate young kids with smartphones, just because in their time they used playing with rocks or something. Actually smartphones are the greatest invention of all time, you have access to all the knowledge in the world whenever you want and immediately.
Perhaps in the future when the metaverse becomes a real thing, those who were getting bitmaps at this time will the super rich of the future, same as those who bought bitcoin/ethereum years ago, who knows
