In order to get a basic grip of what's going on with NFT's please watch the video above. I want to make a couple of comments on asome of what he said. Around 13:25 he talks about the Mechanics behind the Blockchain responsible for keeping track of all of these NFT Transactions, at the time of this recording, was using 33 TWH (terawatts) of electricity, which as he explains is enough electricity to run a Whole Country the size of Surbia!
What do You Think that's doing for Our Planet?
Are a few little Digital Pics Worth Contributing to Global Warming?
What Happens if there's a Power Outtage, Does Everything Get Lost?
I have so many questions but that Doesn't Stop the FACT that NFT's and the Blockchain Exist and All of this Electricity being used will continue. So in my opinion the Smartest Thing to Do would be to Use What is Currently Available to Make a More Positive Impact on Our Society. That's Why when I Create NFT's I Always Donate Some or All of what I've earned to a Worthy Community Cause. Right now I've got a Series of Pitbull Puppies up here:

And every single penny of what I earn from them goes to local animal shelters that care for and look for Forever Homes for this Special and Seriously Misunderstood Bread of Dog.
With that being said, if you know of a Local Animal Shelter that Cares for Pitbulls, Please Let Me Know ?
Now back to NFT's
Non Fungible Tokens, in the first video about NFT's, around 5:42 the speaker uses the Mona Lisa as an example in order to explain that Non Fungible means "There's Only One" and I respectfully disagree because there most certainly is Not just One Mona Lisa, that pic is everywhere! you can go online right now and print out a million of'em if you wanted to. Now the Original Mona Lisa is Still the Original Mona Lisa so only One person can have that but if you're online it's still going to be a very copyable, shareable image so WHY are Little Digital Pics So Damn Valuable?
It is We the People who Will Determine their Value. So what Do You Consider Valuable?
I know I would like to see Profits from NFT's going to things like Head Start, Local Food Pantries, Veterans Services, Battered Women's Shelters and other services that will help to Strengthen and Heal Our Community. NFT's as they are right now don't really appeal to me very much but I am an artist and I do like creating them that's why I've always wanted to give mine Stats and Abilities which would make them playable similar to Magic the Gathering
Only I'm creating Armored Angels to Defend Humans and the Planet from Demonic Forces. It's a work in progress, I'm still working on Stats and Abilities and that sort of thing. Here's a Sneak Peak at a couple of what will be my Armored Angel NFT Playing Cards.
Like I said, they're a work in progress and there's so much more to do. I have bee researching Gaming with NFT's and found that I'm not the first or only person who has thought about this: https://nftgames.net/nft-metaverse-games/
This is the NFT Game to Watch for though because it goes Above and Beyond by allowing your NFT to become a 3-D Character in the Game and Oh Boy does it Look WILD!
I've actually contacted the creator about possibly doing some design work in this game because it's still under development and their site had a space for people interested in that sort of thing. If you want to know more about The Otherside and how you can get involved you can check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qt1equGhkQE
I'm not affiliated with any of the people from any of the videos or websites I've shared in this post, it's just good information. I think The Otherside is going to be a Very Big Deal when it comes to NFT's and Gaming the only downside I can see to it is it looks expensive as all hell but I know this much, if there is a Market for Expensive NFT Games then there Will be a Market for NFT Games that are More Affordable to the Average Gamer/Collector and that's why I'm creating My Own and I'd like to Share the Revenue Generated from this Project with the Community because it will offset the cost and damage to the environment that I talked about earlier in this post.
The Facts are NFT's Exist and they are becoming More Functionable. A lot of them come with Special Perks, for instance businesses can create them and attach "Unlockable Content" such as Discounts, other offers and son.
I'd love to here what you think so please share your ideas and input on this topic.
Thanks for taking the time to check out what I have to say on this subject, I appreciate ?
