Keanu, or literally any famous celebrity's word has more impact solely because they are a celebrity. Much more people will be interested to know what he thinks than what you and I think about NFTs. It sure seems asinine considering he is no expert in the field, but that's just how it is. Fame trumps expertise when it comes to having your voice heard.

Or better yet, everyone is entitled to an opinion, and he has is own opinion since he's being associated with some NFT project - so at bare minimum someone briefed him about it, best case scenario, he actually studied it enough to have an educated opinion.

You don't need to know how to program smart contracts to have an opinion on NFTs, and the guy has been around and knows what fads and trends look like, and probably has dealt with these types of concepts from the whole Matrix culture around it.

Plus we all know NFTs survive on hype, and he knows how hype works.

Does this make him an opinion leader?

I don't think so, but he does have an opinion apparently and thinks people shouldn't take these NFTs seriously.
