A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

TL;DR: The NFT market has drastically declined since its peak in 2021, with most NFT collections having no value. There's an oversupply of NFTs, leading to a buyer's market, and environmental concerns due to energy consumption. Top NFTs also struggle to maintain value, and the future of NFTs depends on utility and genuine value rather than speculation.

At least with other speculative crashes like say beanie babies you were left with a cute toy.

No kidding. Hey I've got a great idea for a new marketplace, BeaNFT. You can waste your money but get an upcycled Beanie Baby in the process.
