      This is probably the bag holders trying desperately to keep the apes relevant in hopes they can pump up the price again and offload.

    Wtf is a boerd ape NFT event? I know the bored ape images and I know what an event is… But wtf? Are people supposed to go somewhere to look at those ugly images? People should know they can enjoy this meaningless garbage online. For free.

      One of the perks of owning these NFTs was that you could attend exclusive events. What those events were going to be about was anyone’s guess. Eye burn, apparently.

      Oh thanks I get it know. Buying NFTs is like buying tickets to a concert. What if the events isn’t anywhere near me? Still a very stupid concept.

    I’m guessing they didn’t hire an event lighting company and did it themselves. No one I know in the industry would do that.

    It was a stupid decision to attend a party created by the creators of a stupidly overpriced asset.

      asset

      You mispelled “obvious scam”

      To be fair, the keys are right next to each other.

    So the financial harm wasn’t obvious enough for the Bored Apes? The creators wanted to be sure everyone knew it was made to hurt them directly but burning their retinas.

    I thought this was about concerned ape for a second after he was talking about some random TV show. I was like, man, how fall have we fallen.

    Bored Ape NFT owners say: “Ow! My money! Ow! My eyes!”

    It’s unfortunate that people were injured but fuck, I’m still scarred just by seeing these awful things. At least if they were going to do a scam art investment scheme they could have made the art not hideous.

        No, but I barely recall what bored ape is or how it is culturally relevant…which is why I thought of it

              What is with all the “not my problem” replies all of a sudden. This is a sad troll effort.

                what do you mean? I haven’t seen one myself yet. It’s just a common expression.

                I don’t think that comment is trolling, just a bit low effort post. But that’s nothing rare in Lemmy/Reddit.

                  I have received something like 5 different replies to separate replies of my own, from new accounts with only one comment, all of which end with “not my problem.” It’s almost like a bot keyed off that phrase from my reply in a privacy community post, or there are some butthurt people with too much time on their hands.

      Ditto, after that talk about the TV show. I was like man, how far has he fallen.

        I think if he sold NFT’s I would just about lose all faith in mankind. Now when the hell is haunted chocolatier coming…
