So recently there's been a lot of buzz about this site called Top Shot. It's in collaboration with the NBA and they release collectable highlights that are blockchain based and limited to a specific number. Some highlights are going for insane amounts of money like this dunk by the GOAT LeBron

So I was wondering if we will see something like this but with the music industry maybe with album covers or songs idk, but seems like an interesting idea that has a lot of buzz rn

This album would be worth about 5k 💯 🗣️

I don't understand.. they just bought a video?

For 208,000?

yea lol like i can just watch that clip on youtube for free wtf

These are just NFTs

Music industry is bouta be on this soon

It's technically a unique highlight of it, but yes essentially it's just a video.

Ngl, this is a stupid ass idea.

It's just a new way to collect things

Obviously I'm not dropping that type of money, but it's basically a digital binder of cards that you can flex on other people with lmao. I see the appeal

i guess theres a market for anything these days if theres enough nerds willing to participate in the hype, if i pay 200k for a collectible it better be something actually physical in real life like a autographed game worn jersey or pair of sneakers

Stupid is harsh, my bad. I just don't understand the point, so it's not something that I could ever see myself spending any money on. I'd rather have a real collectible card than a virtual one.

What makes people pay that much

To flex pretty much. Actual trading cards go for 6 figures pretty often, so if these have the same scarcity and capture the same idea then it makes them worth that much.

Trust me I think it's a little strange too, but the numbers speak for themselves

I got 1 in 50 Charli XCX HIFN cover photo

Is that what op is talking about

This NFT stuff is WOAT tier
