Not really an advice thread, but just out of interest - does anyone know/trade in these?
I've just been talking to a younger colleague who's only 19, he's been dabbling with NFTs over lockdown. He just told me he's made 2 or 3 grand so far and is bowing out before he gets too involved! He sold one a few months ago and made £1500, but had he kept it and sold today, it would have netted him £12000.
How on earth is this a commodity? I mean, it's a computer generated image, albeit a one-off. It's not as though anyone is printing these htings out and hanging them on their wall? So the sole purpose of having them is to sell? I'm no finance expert at the best of times, but this one I really do not understand!
