sometimes I personally still don't believe that NFT can have such a fantastic selling point, although I agree that this scenario is more of a money laundering part. but as long as we can take advantage of this trend to take profit, why not? I mean leaving after making a profit.
Looking at the meme coin world, they are doing exactly what you are suggesting. They all know that doge or shiba or whatever memecoin they are buying have zero value, none of them believes that it should be a great coin to buy and has a great future, they all do it just because there is a hype around it and if they can take advantage of that hype to make some profit then there is nothing to worry about.
I would say that there is a good chance we could make some profit with this as well, NFT could definitely be something you do not believe in but you still invest just because you believe that people will pay more, but that is a very risky way to approach investment isn't it? To believe that you will find some fool to invest more than they should?
