when you're done reading this, you'll know how to be rich.
Obviously the title is clickbait. It's a joke. But since you clicked it and you're here, I just wanted to take a look at something I find hilarious. I write about NFTs a lot, I know. They kinda became an addiction obsession and I'm very excited about what's happening with the. If you don't know, an NFT is a Non-Fungible Token, think like a digital collectible.
Right Click, Save As...
If you didn't realize by now, this is a comedy post. I'm not showing you how to make money or do anything with NFTs. I'm showing you that sometimes you need to laugh, smile, and just enjoy life. Everyone takes things so seriously. I'm here to make shit fun. So I was watching some YouTube playing YouTube for background noise, and a video about this guy "downloading every NFT". Some absolute mad lad with a massive brain went and did the ole' 'right click, copy paste' on every single NFT on Solana and Ethereum. Might as well have been Florida Man. That's not all. He also created a website called NFTbay that hosts a torrent files for all these NFTs. It even looks exactly like The Pirate Bay, which I fuckin love. Pay respects. #FreeRossUlbricht.
Above is an actual picture of me stealing Bored Ape #7845, please don't tell on me. You can either do that, or go to the NFT Bay like a true gentleman and download your favorite NFT like it was intended LOL. Oh yeah, I own a Bored Ape now so I'm one of the cool kids. Move aside, plebs.
Let's go download some cars. Sadly the search function is non-functional. You can see a few random NFTs, but if you click the pirate shit... BOI you hit the motherload!!
When you click the magical pirate ship, you're taken to the STASH. This is the holy grail. Every single NFT on Ethereum and Solana, all packed into a very thiccc 17.76 TERABYTES. Yeah, I used thicc with 3 c's instead because damn. No one has 18 TB of storage space to download this. Also let me be clear here this is not how NFTs work. you can't just download them. I'm here to laugh at this dumb shit. Also, you should use a VPN if you're gunna go around stealing NFTs. Don't even try to download this shit. Also - I love the category "Cryptocurrency Fraud > NFT" like damn bro lol.
The guy that did this did it to educated people on how NFTs actually work - which is a great thing. I know I'm here making fun of the thought of saving a jpeg, but there's actually people out there that think that's how NFTs work. He makes a great point here that your NFT isn't the actual picture, video, or whatever. It's kind of a hyperlink to that media file. You're buying a piece of data on the blockchain that links to wherever that media is hosted most of the time. This is not the case for every NFT, but it is the case for some.
What are your thoughts? Are you gunna make millions downloading and reselling jpegs now?
Thanks for reading! Much love.

It’s hilarious. I can’t believe people are using Bitcoin and Ethereum to buy NFTs … I’m using mine to buy Land. Lots and lots of land… with clean drinking water, and Apple orchards, and forests. That is worth millions…. Not some jpeg. Good God. The world has gone mad.
The world went mad long ago, my friend.
When did you notice that ?
