    Also, these coins and NFT's are very bad for the environment, as they take A LOT of energy to be mined and have a very big carbon footprint. For example, to mine a single Bitcoin, it takes the same amount of power that the average American household consumes in a month, and is responsible for roughly a million times more carbon emissions than a single Visa transaction.
    Honestly, I don't get the hype around crypto currency and NFT's, I'd much rather use regular, old printed bills. It's much simpler

      Both Bitcoin and NFT are amazing. But...
      For Bitcoin, it's value is in being a decentralized currency. That values has been destroyed by the rampant speculation and price destabilization. Now it is so unwieldy that it's essentially unusable as a currency until it becomes less volatile.
      NFTs are just the next technological leap in ownership. It's literally a distributed ledger for tracking titles and associating them to assets. There are many great uses. That said, as with all technology many people are relying on people not knowing what it is to scam them into buying things just because it's an NFT

      @@IsoMacintosh NFTs are simply a distributed title ledger that also allows attached assets and entire programs. The technology is highly valuable. This means tracking ownership without the chance of forgery. That doesn't mean its "easy money" though, ownership without benefit typically isn't valuable so you still need an actual product to sell.
      The scams you're referring to as "easy money" rely on taking advantage of people who don't understand the technology. This happens with all things, it is not unique to NFTs. Plenty of scams right here on RUclips, both on the channels directly but also in their adverts. These scams have quite literally nothing reliant on the NFT technology though, as you mentioned the scam is just getting people to pay for a non-product.

    idk i think it's kind of weird that in a video about influencers advertising for stuff like this, you then advertised for stuff like this lmao. like i get it but the vibe i was getting up until that point was "be wary of influencers suggesting that you buy things" and you then suggesting that i buy things gave me a little bit of whiplash

      I thought he was going to say "just kidding" after the horse thing. that blew my mind that he would gain our trust by pointing our scams and then try to sell us virtual horses that you can use to gamble with.

      Bro read in between the lines hes saying don't trust influencers ads, then promoted ads, and even said hes never won at the horse game but "the music" probably because this whole video was telling people not to trust his ads

      There's an obvious difference tho to these other "projects" the horse one adds an entertainment value and like he said it's pretty much gambling. He was very transparent, the other is literally a rewards program. These other crypto currencies are literally just a hype and have no real value because the only goal is to profits the creators, he made it very clear to do your own research even on the ones he promoted..

      @@BeyondBrii I believe this is well intentioned, but that argument already came up in my research, and it is demonstrably untrue. Even if it was, adding a huge impact is not good either. I don't support our current banking practices with regard to the environment anyhow, so I don't want to add a new, growing thing to worry about ontop of trying to make our current systems sustainable.
