This past summer, we were super frustrated with how difficult it was to legitimately dispose of worthless NFTs in order to harvest losses on these assets for tax minimization. There's no real marketplace for worthless NFTs, but investors are sitting on thousands of dollars of tax savings if they had a simple way to harvest their NFT losses.

From this pain-point, an idea was born!

So, we started working on a smart contract that would buy any NFT for a de minimis amount of ETH, thus allowing investors to lock in their losses and reduce their 2022 tax bill.

Would love to hear any feedback!

Awesome product.

The main reason I would use this instead of burning my NFTs would be the product doing the legwork to figure my tax loss for me.

I think this offers tremendous value to retail (unsophisticated users). The only value I see for sophisticated users is quickly figuring tax loss.

There's always OpenSea

Do you have any plans to sell the NFTs you buy?

If you burned it, couldn't you still count it as a tax loss?

If you told me the story of NFTs was a joke on Silicon Valley I’d say you were being over the top.

Doesn't seem a very good idea to use anything like this (or call any method actually) except on NFTs where you have verified the code.

When you sign to authorize the contract to buy your worthless NFT, the contract will call something like safeTransfer(), but the NFT implementation of that method might actually just do something bad eg empty out your wallet.

This is a reasonably common means of crypto theft: drop an NFT into someone's wallet with malicious transfer code that actually steals their assets when they try to transfer it.
