Troy Baker, best known as the voice behind The Last Of Us Part II’s Joel Miller, made trouble for himself overnight [14.01.22] when he announced his support for a new NFT venture around monetizing artists’ voice work. “You can hate.

I posted that earlier in this thread. And there I thought I was being really clever and creative.

I really dont understand this shit, is basically modern day paid loot boxes?
So a pyramid scheme?No. Theyre digital images the owner doesnt have copyright claim on. Ownership of the image is logged on the blockchain and the image value is tied to a communal pool of investment money called a DAO.
