To be honest, there are many things i will probably never understand about NFTs cos I couldnt understand the inspiration behind its ugliness. I think it was odd how the first generation NFTs, especially this ape club, were ugly as hell. Sure, the whole nft idea was bewildering really, but why was it all so ugly as well?
is there a hidden utility in ugliness or am i missing something?
Whats your point? If you hear some first generation nft being minted or offer, it really doesnt mean good looks or art cause many users purchased it for potential rewards from partners or certain airdrop token if they launch one.
As of now, thats its use case and I can confirm it as I am also joining some projects 1st gen nft and their value is not based on looks but on the level of rarity.
