I’m not saying the forum is perfect and cannot be improved or anything but I think we  deserve a lot more credit for contribution to the crypto space. All this could be used to attract more users to the platform.
I think that xtraelv's signature describe this forum perfectly.

We are surrounded by legends on this forum. Phenomenal successes and catastrophic failures. Then there are the scams. This forum is a digital museum.

Ah, NFTs are very overrated IMO.  I don't see the real value in them and certainly don't see why people have paid outrageous prices for them in the past.  And why would anyone in their right mind pay money for a collection of Satoshi's posts on bitcointalk when they could just create a compilation of them themselves?  It's not like they're some rare writings that have disappeared from the internet.
There's some sort of misunderstanding about NFTs or I'm just the one who sees it differently. NFTs are typically like paintings which are made to be sold in the future. One could say that they're ponzi, because they're made to be sold in a higher price in the recent investors while the early ones earn the most.

Once you sell someone an NFT, you're signing the ownership of that creation. But, that's not as simple as it seems. There're probably copyrights involved. You can't sell Mona Liza if you don't own it. Hence, you can't sell a Satoshi's post, if you don't prove somehow that this is yours.
