The difference between the Titanic and any ancient Greek or Chinese shipwrecks or Spanish galleons is....
Several thousands of feet down would be my first guess?
No different. I’m glad they have a way to preserve some of the historical artifacts from the wreckage. It’s incredible what they can do now.
If as I understand John Pierpont (J.P.) Morgan, whose company was the controlling trust and retained ownership of the White Star Line have they salvage rights?
What’s an NFT?
Thanks for asking . I don’t know .
“Hong Kong’s first approved virtual asset manager, will “lead in structuring the tokenization of the intellectual property and also develop tokenized instruments for accredited investors, drawing on its expertise as a licensed virtual asset manager. This will enable compliant capital raising for the ongoing research, recovery, preservation, exhibition, and licensing of RMST’s assets.” “
ROTFLOL!
but hey, with THAT many buzzwords strung together, it MUST be a legit “investment”, right?
Think of NFT’s as a kind of hi-tech digital baseball card. Now, it’s not necessarily about baseball. It could a be a work of art, or a plan of a house. It could be anything. It could be one of a kind or a limited number. But some have sold for a lot of money, like $69 million.
“What’s an NFT?”
non-fungible token ... which is a blockchain token that has a unique serial number and which represents something digital, which usually means a representation of something that really is nothing ... and is purported to have great value, just so long as there’s a greater fool than you who’s willing to give you more money for it than what you paid for it when you bought it from the con artist that sold it to you ...
Ok , thanks .
Thank you. I’m guess this the basis of crypto?
“What’s an NFT?”

Is it worth $$$? How much???
“In ‘image’ of inside my brain, with its scrambled collection of 70-plus years of experience could be an NFT?”
sure ...
“Is it worth $$$? How much???”
it depends upon how good of a con artist you are ...
I love that definition. Thank you!
“I’m guess this the basis of crypto?”
more or less ...
crypto is based on FUNGIBLE blockchain tokens, that is tokens that are all the same and are indistinguishable one from the other ... each crypto token represents only the IDEA of a coin, rather than some digital image or some such as is the case with an NFT ... in other words, crypto is even LESS tangible than an NFT!
check out my definition of crypto i just gave to “boomer”:

So this is basically vapor money?
Glad I’m not the only one to wonder.
