Did he have an oil change as a NY present? Seems to be running like a new racer.

What an engine! I think he benefits hugely from being rested sometimes by the rather good Tsimikas. Rotation people, who knew!

Thought Robertson was exceptional v Arsenal, took Saka completely out of the game and brilliant on the overload at the other end, the most complete fullback in the premier league and embodies everything about our aggression, spirit, and never say die attitude.

46 assists now, that’s 1 more than Paul Scholes.

Those assists today were exceptional, the corner especially as he's been playing some absolutely poor ones recently. When him and Trent are on their games you always stand a chance.

Incredible player has it all, even when not as his passing best can rely on him to have the drive energy and stamina to match any opposing winger at the very minimum.

Why stop there?

Robbo should start mining his own cryptocurrency while he’s at it. He probably won’t play this weekend so he’s still got some time.

How about “Robocoin”?  Has a nice ring to it.

Does anyone know if Robbo reads these posts? Coz I know a guy who can set him up with ASIC rigs in Iceland. As many as he wants. I just need Robbo to wire me a small down payment immediately and I can get his whole operation started tomorrow.

They're essentially digital collectables. Unlike other digital images they have an authenticiy built in, which is based on a similar system to cryptocurrency, so that even though an NFT is digital it is unique and can thus retain its value (assuming the bubble doesn't burst and these things don't become worthless).

It's all part of the current experimentation with imbuing unique, non-fungible worth to digital data.

They're not actually unique digital images though. They're 'unique' digital receipts to say you've bought the image. You can copy the actual image all you want. Or you could even make a different receipt to say you bought that same image.

And if that makes it sound like you're buying something with absolutely no value whatsoever, then you are correct.

Yeah, still not too sure what the problem is here. He's promoting his own NFTs... so... what's the issue?

That he profits from it? Nearly every single one of our players is promoting various things either for, with or separate to the club. Robbo in particular has been brilliant in championing foodbanks etc and supporting community projects. So the money from this could fund that?

That it's an impact to the environment? Well as long as the people knocking him for that have gone vegan, ditched their car for public transport, aren't buying un-necessary clothes or par-taking in any of the countless industries that have big effects as well.

Is it one of these influencer things, where a nobody tells another nobody they should have it and then everyone has one?

Yes you're correct, I phrased it badly. It's not the digital file itself that is unique, but the ownership right of the 'original' if you want to call it that. What you might call the certificate of authenticity, which proves that YOU own the original item.

Yes in many ways NFTs can be said to be worthless and can be a big scam, but there are potential legitimate uses, such as an artist selling a piece of digital art once, for a high value, and one person owning that original piece, however many 'copies' may exist. In that regard it's not much different to traditional art where multiple copies and prints can exist but only one is the original and that's where the big value lies.

I've still no idea what they are as in what's the point?

Is it a picture? 

What is it for?

What does it do?

Why would you want it?

Is it one of these influencer things, where a nobody tells another nobody they should have it and then everyone has one?




It's a collectable. It being an NFT means that they are literally selling ownership rights to the digital artefact - in this case an image, but it can be music or a video or even a tweet. I think the first ever tweet was later sold as an NFT, so someone has the 'pleasure' of knowing that they and they alone now 'own' that tweet, and can sell it on if they want to.

Whether that really means anything is subjective, and like most investments esp in collectables, an item is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it, and that worth can collapse in an instant.

There is a concern that people can get scammed by this sort of thing.

Ok I get the "it's a collectable" but who decides ownership and the legal right to be able to sell?

Like I guess I could go through the photos on my phone and think ooh somebody might want to buy that but how, or who, decides who owns the first ever tweet, or text, or WhatsApp or whatever it is somebody's buying or selling?

Is this where the scam bit comes in?  Or is the scam where the same thing can be sold a gazillion times therefore meaning it's not "unique".

Either way it's all a load of made up bollocks by clever people who will make billions out of stupid, thick people.

I don't disagree around the value - personally I don't see any, but I'm not sure it's a scam.

don't see the difference between this and people buying a print of an original piece of art.

you own an NFT the same way you own the rights to something you've written or painted - it belongs to the creator (as long as they haven't stolen a copyrighted image obv) of it unless/until they sign the rights away
in the case of the NFT this ovwnership is established/proved through a blockchain addresses which can't be forged

you could produce prints of the NFT or other likenesses but there'll only ever be one orginal - so in a lot of ways its the same as physical art just digital

its not a "scam" in that there's nothing fraudulent invovled.
you can easily argue an NFT is wrothless or over priced or its a bubble or whatever, but then its just like anything else and worth what anyone will pay for it.

In my personal opinoin many NFTs will end up being worthless and the market is a bubble BUT digital art is a 'thing' and people will display it in their homes in the future so some NFTs wont be worthless... but that's just opinion
