Agreed. Also Patreon, subscribestar, and on and on and on. NFTs are solving for a non-existent problem.

None of those platforms solve the scarcity issue, so none of them result in artists getting paid reasonably.

Not sure it does. The NFT itself is scarce, but not the art. That's different from the real world where the art itself is scarce.

I agree. We've had physical cash and the postal service for centuries now. Platforms like Patreon, Subscribestar, etc. are also solving nonexistent problems. We can already pay artists by mailing them cash or a check, there's no reason for any of these technologies to exist.
