The counter point is everything he said is well known and discussed within the web3 circles, nothing he mentioned was ground breaking.

In general speakers who are talk about their solutions to problems are interesting, while speakers who take a defeatist attitude of course are going to get ignored.

So you are saying there are solutions to these problems? Because, if there are, this is the first I'm hearing anything about it. I've had a lot of "NFT game items are never going to be a thing" kind of arguments and not once have heard a compelling argument for them. Are you just keeping the answers a secret, or something?

Dunno. Say you bought a bored ape nft, it would be possible for different virtual worlds to let you have that look for your avatar in the game. The bored ape people would probably have to pay something to the world operators for them to implement it but it doesn't seem impossible and might be kinda fun.

Most online games already let you upload a JPEG for your profile pic.

rather, if there is no solution to a problem, or at least an attempt to solve the problem, then it's not worth the discussion. maybe proving that a problem is unsolvable is useful, but failing that there is nothing new being added

[timeon]

If something has no solution it is dead end. You need to start from scratch.

[em-bee]

of course, but telling those that don't want start from scratch that isn't going to achieve much

Based on the article, his critique and analysis of in-game NFT usage was pretty shallow and not very technical. I think there would be many ways to synchronize blockchain NFTs into game items, make them disappear from the game (with some delay) when the NFT is transferred to someone else, etc. I can imagine there would be many practical problems to solve, but real critique should be based on how someone actually tried to implement all this and failed. Otherwise it's really just an imaginary strawman argument.

It fealt the same for me (critique being shallow), although one would hope the more knowledgeable people would at least attempt to explain it to him.

Every once in a while a crypto conference invites a skeptic to speak, I guess to show they are open to criticism. It doesn’t benefit anyone. Crypto holders have already heard everyone “con” argument, and whether you agree or not just depends on your priors.
