Everyone comment how much did they lose on NFTs.
I will start: $0.
Also I made: 0$
I found value in shitting on people buying them. $0 monetary gain, but at least $10 in schadenfreude.
I trolled people by setting their NFT as my avatar in the chat rooms they were in. Im going to value that at $100.
Best use of an NFT I've ever heard of!
I've been watching a lot of Antiques Roadshow clips and I imagined one of the appraisers doing a valuation of your shenanigans.
"You bought this magnificent piece sillyness when and for how much?"
"oh I just copypasted it to my profile for no money at all"
"Well that was very good deal indeed, because on in todays money the entertainment value alone is in the hundreds of pounds."
Better hope they don’t sue you for copyright infringement.

Putting a dollar figure on your schadenfreude? Do you want a block chain based "prediction market" for schadenfreude? That's how you get a block chain based "prediction market" for schadenfreude.
Damn, I lost twice as much as you did.
I actually got a free NFT in some kind of sweepstakes. It's probably worth negative money now.
It did get me 3 free drinks at a music festival so there's like +50 bucks in value right there.
I actually made money from NOT putting any of my investment money in NFTs and instead putting it somewhere else.
Then again, from the very start the NFT mania looked like a more obvious and dumb version of the Tulip Bulb mania, so I can hardly claim great wisdom from not having put a cent in it.
