Ledger has a message for NFT haters: you’re dead in the end

The chief experience officer of crypto hardware wallet firm Ledger has a message for NFT haters: eventually you will be dead.

Ian Rogers says the concept of non-replaceable tokens makes sense to a younger generation — those who spend hours glued to screens, live online and go to school near the height of the pandemic.

“It’s not a foreign concept,” he told us on the most recent episode of “Crypto IRL.”

Emily Yang, the artist known as pplpleasr, sees NFTs as a reflection of society and that they will be collectibles as vinyl albums once were.

However, NFT skeptics urge caution. John Reed Stark, a former SEC enforcement attorney, says the whole concept is a ridiculous scam. “It’s a giant scam,” he said. “It’s a giant Ponzi scheme.”
