NFT World

I’ve spent the last two hours researching different NFT projects. The projects happening right now are absolutely fascinating and I’ll admit that it’s been hard to hold myself back from buying a whole bunch of NFTs.

I’m hoping to participate in my first minting tonight with the Illuminati NFT project. Fingers crossed that I’ll be able to snag a couple. I told Sophia that I was planning on spending 0.5 ETH (~$2,000) on these two NFTs and she almost flipped out. She joked that this better be a good investment and we better get rich off of it.

The reality is that most of these NFT projects will likely fail in the long run. Buying a NFT with hopes that it’ll 10x is the wrong reason to do so.

I view these projects as a way to get involved in the web3 community first and foremost. I am admittedly playing with house money on gains from my ETH and I am more than willing to pay to play with that cash.

Beyond the learning, the ability to be part of a great project and community is worth the price of entrance to me. I have met some amazing people on the internet and I hope to continue to meet great people as part of these web3 communities.

Of course, the possibility for gains on your NFTs is something that is undoubtedly on most people’s minds. I view that as an added bonus to everything that comes along with it.

Fingers cross that I get to mint my first NFT today.
