It sounds ridiculous,which is exactly its charm.
For what I know, crypto behaves in strange and bizarre ways. First it was the ICO hype. Then came the "De-Fi" hype. And now it's the NFT hype. Who knows what the next big thing in crypto will be?
No one knows. Just try to spread your assets on different fields and who knows that could be the next generation hype. Nft still resides on defi hype which can be use to a lot of use cases. Its not just a random trending now. Maybe the shitcoin fest is the one seasonal and no additional benefit on the market compared to that.
