Beanie Babies were actually cute, and well made toys. They still have that intrinsic value even when dug out of Grandma's closet today.

NFT's haven't got even that much going for them, so far as I can tell. History may recall we used this digital wailing wall for a while; but who will care enough to dig that deep into the minutiae of the silly season when the larger questions are so much more interesting, like "why didn't they see what was happening to their society?"

In the less distant future, our grandchildren will read the wikipedia on the NFT mania of 2021 and exclaim "I can't believe you guys were that dumb" At that moment I'll point to the framed screenshot of my reply to your comment and say "There's evidence I stayed out of it kiddo"

Why not mint the reply as an NFT and frame the blockchain transaction hash? ;)
