Did you know that a NFT is just a hyperlink [1] to an image thats usually hosted on Google Drive or another web2.0 webhost?

People are dropping millions on instructions on how to download images. That's why you can right click save-as because they are standard images. The image is not stored in the blockchain contract.

As web2.0 webhosts are known to go offline (404 errors) this handy torrent contains all of the NFT's so that future generations can study this generations tulip mania and collectively go..."WTF? We destroyed our planet for THIS?!"

the fact is that it's a location based address is the best part lol

when the NFT crowds finds out that an image that appears the same can have different hashes, they'll want to ban compression algorithms too :) :)

Ikr! With how much people went on about NFTs, I always thought the actual image data was stored on the blockchain or something like that XD

Worst part is that it's actually possible. So they intentionally made it shit.
