I normally find it pretty cool to see different interpretations of my designs across different art styles. Unfortunately, this one was bagged in a scam and my character is recognized in it. That can be bad for optics as to who I am and what I do, but fact is I think NFTs are stupid. Crypto in general I struggle with, but most NFTs out there are overpriced digital assets. None of them are tangible whether it is bitcoin or other cryptocurrency or NFTs. Atleast Cryptocurrency I can understand a little bit more, but none of it actually holds a candle to what stock markets do. You buy a share in a company and you get money overtime according to how well the business does. That's simplified but at least with a share, that company takes your money and invests it to make more profit which you then get a piece of. With NFTs, you just hope that someone is as stupid as you to pay for your overpriced PNG which may or may not come with any small benefits, (Which are never worth it.) But of course some people think they should get payed for putting work into high end digital assets. I won't disagree with that, but putting them out as NFTs for 25.00 to 30 000.00 dollars is absurd and the wrong way to approach the situation.

But rather than get all bent out of shape over someone taking my design and attempt to make money off it, it's much more fun to meme them and make it clear I don't support this stuff despite being used in this whole thing. Let's not forget there is legitimate copyright violations in this NFT scam using SN stickfigures. They since have removed me from one of the images but left me on the other, but they are going to want to remove a hell of a lot more than that if they even want to try and get anywhere. (Which they won't)
