I'm watching a strange program about the major NFT scam. It initially involved a show of decorated Stormtrooper helmets, by some names such as Damien Hurst ... and Kapoor, I think. It's well worth a watch, as a warning, if it looks to be too good to be true, it probably is. The Stormtrooper Scandal: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0020cw2 via @bbciplayer Maybe I'm a cynic, but I fail to understand why so many fell for this? Is it a quality of being rich? It's one big ponzi/pyramid scheme.  Just as is AI.

You can take it as read that NFT is a scam. I don't know what connection Kapoor or Hurst had to do with it, but - there seems to be a natural connection.  Dross calls out to dross.
