I personally think nft is still a hype that can't be used for long term investment because nft is not a safe place for it .... but everyone has their own decisions and research
because nft will be meaningful for those who can read the art in it and find great opportunities for the next
NFT honestly isn’t about reading the art in it, it’s just the same branding, basically the currently popular and famous NFTs are the “supreme” of the NFT marketplace.
I would say that maybe it’s because owning an NFT that valued quite high gives them sense of exclusivity and maybe they think it’s like some sort of investment.
although I wouldn’t say it’s a form of investment if the maker of this certain NFT could always make another exclusive NFT again and again.
