> There was nothing in GP's comment stating anything covered by your hyperbole.

You're right, I was lashing out at the general vitriol in every comments section involving cryptocurrency. GP, I'm sorry you caught a stray.

> we can say that it's probably never going to be a reality where NFTs are the solution for cross-game item trading.

I don't see the model with today's system either, but I'm going to leave it to people smarter and more ambitious than myself to figure it out.

> Not sure why you needed this passive-aggressive hyperbole

I'm simply done with the portion of the HN readership that decides to switch over to Reddit Mode whenever the topic of crypto comes up. It's simply anti-intellectual cargo culting drivel.

> do you have any issues with people criticising NFTs?

Nope, I have my own criticism of NFTs and cryptocurrency. But I don't believe it's good for the health of HN to continue seeing the same vitriolic ad hominem every time the topic comes up. There's plenty of ways to give good criticism of the space, i.e. Moxie[1]

Again, reiterating that GP caught a stray in this context. The general outline of this response to you could in theory be its own top level comment.

Sheesh. This is the first and last time I participate in an NFT related thread.
