Came here to bring up the DNC burning Bernie. Hard to trust after that fiasco.

Sorry my question was poorly formed. You were talking about digital files being stored perfectly fine on a local medium. I was talking about new use cases for unique digital objects, and gave examples of different kinds of existing credentials/titles.
What if that digital file is the title to your car, deed to your home, your college degree, passport, driver’s license, etc?
Living in a digital world there are IMO fascinating use cases for unique (read non-copyable, self-custodied) digital objects.
What I’m not interested in are assumptions of limitations for things we barely understand.
Yeah I dunno man. NFTs at least allow for a softening of the walls in the garden. The potential is there for fun and interesting ideas like interoperability between games and game assets, and 3rd party platforms for buying, selling, and interacting with games and game assets.
At minimum it’s a combined digital proof of purchase and login credentials that you can custody yourself and transfer/sell at will without being forced to do so through the makers’ infrastructure.
People shitting on it seem to default to an oversimplified idea of what they are and can be, and a bad faith superiority on top.
That’s not something I get down with. I like new tech. I like experimentation. And I like seeing where things go rather than assuming I already know.
Nvm I misread your initial comment as saying they were shutting down their cryptocoin (as in a coin they launched themselves). Seems they’re shutting down the wallet bc it’s the most vulnerable to violating the vague regulations currently in place. They’ve still got the marketplace and recently announced a project called PlayR that looks to be a game streaming platform.

The regulatory environment isnt doing the NFT-based game ownership model any favors.
What cryptocoin?
Man that was trippy. Clicked my inbox and saw your message. Clicked it to reply and it brought the post back up. For the briefest if moments I saw dark blue/almost black and gold then it went right back go basically white. Like the image itself blinked but I have to assume it was my brain briefly interpreting it one way then reverting.
Wtf
Wait is it black and blue in the thumbnail for this post? I forgot how much this messed with my head. I honestly see white and gold.
How the heck is this game free? It doesn’t even capture any data (on iOS) except identifies and they aren’t used to track players. Gonna give it a try.
I come from apple-land (don’t shoot, I love FOSS!). Just wanted to say I’ve been happy with their native password manager, especially since they added Advanced Data Protection (E2EE on almost all data types in iCloud). Everything is held behind a private key and/or social recovery, the latter of which brings the technical barrier within reach of the average user.
If anyone knows of reasons not to trust E2EE iCloud I’d be grateful to hear them.
Can confirm that the backbone is quite nice
