So, the possible NFT'ing of a cute ninja clan really got people talking. Happy about that. Many different opinions and beliefs, nice to see that we can all talk civil even if we don't have the same opinions on a theme :)
Some thought on all this..
People keep calling NFT's a pyramid scheme, but what they're describing is actually just your regular pump and dump/build hype/Capitalism/FOMO. They say this is super bad, but it would be interested to see if you're thinking the same way about all aspects of your life?
The environmental impact, is a valid point.
But, I have a feeling that the people using that as an argument don't do SHIT to help the environment/earth, so blaming their hate for NFT's (of their FOMO) on that, is just stupid. Or what do you say? I would understand if you use that argument if you actually gave a damn, but I know you don't, unless it's convenient for you and your day to day lifestyle. No? It's like pointing at something that wouldn't effect you/you would never use/come in contact with anyways, and say "I WOULD NEVER EAT/DO/PARTICIPATE IN THAT", since, yes, you never would.. but you're using it as a reason to look better/feel better about yourself/validate? Maybe, maybe not, who knows.
Me, I don't buy anything plastic unless there's no other option, only eat local and organic, only buy used and re-used, don't over costume, only own minimal pieces of clothing etc etc.. and I have no problem with the NFT energy consumption, since I know it will lead to more efficient ways of doing it in the future and the technology will lead to something else.
Someone said something about using bullshit buzzword to help sell stuff.
Well, using bullshit buzzwords MIGHT probably help with the sales, which would be beneficial since I do need to make money like everyone else to pay bills.
People who don't support the comic monetary anyways, I find it a little bit arrogant when they are threatening to stop reading if we do NFT's. If we do NFT's, I'll be sad to see you go.. truly, since I want to make people smile, not get upset. But, if said NFT's actually ended up generate a small extra push of income, I would think about those people when I pay my bills, can buy more time to spend on the comic and so on, since you probably won't.
The odds of us doing NFT's are slim anyways, mostly since I have no idea on how to do the things I'd like to do.. and don't have the technical knowledge needed.
Besides, this comic is just me doing jokes I find funny, readers or not. I mean, the comic used to have like 70k readers per day, and now it's like maybe 5% of that.. but I'll still keep doing it :)
Please let me know if you feel like I'm all in the wrong here.
Hey!
My birthday today. I'm older than I thought I'd ever be. Yay.
Anyways..
Exciting PLANS.. I say plans, since I'm still researching things, and trying to figure out what's what and how to make it work.
Let me tell you about the plans.
I'm in the process or generating a bunch of ninjas. Drawing, redrawing and making traits. It was a bit hard to find the right tool for this, but I finally found it (I think), and I'm working hard on the generating.
When this is done, they'll all go up on openSea or whatnot.
Some ideas for the next couple of steps..
- All ninjas will be hidden until purchase, so that you don't know how rare the ninja you're buying is.
- All ninjas will have same price (price (if possible), would be around $5-$10, cheap enough for everyone to own one).
- Some ninjas will come with physical IRL vinyl figure (Still researching if I can actually make this happen with services + drop shipping etc).
- Some ninjas will come with your own LG character.
What do you think?
What are your thoughts?
Any suggestions on more things we can do? :)
