Hey look, it's an NFT-themed candle!
You probably have questions.
Q: What is an NFT, anyhow?
A: Honestly, don’t even worry about it.
Q: What does an NFT smell like?
A: An NFT does not have a scent, because it doesn’t exist in the material plane. It’s an abstraction, an idea.
Q: Huh?
A: Think of it like this: If I claimed, “I officially own the color blue, because I gave someone on the internet some money and they gave me a receipt,” you wouldn’t say that my claim had a particular odor.
Q: OK, but what does the candle smell like?
A: Mint.
Q: Is that little pile of money on the candle real?
A: What does “real” even mean anymore?
Q: This candle is an investment, right? Not just a weird way to show that I have disposable income to waste?
A: Yeah, sure.
Q: Can I sell this candle to someone else for more than I paid for it? Maybe a LOT more than I paid for it? I’m hoping that if I’m one of the first people to buy one, I can find someone who will give me a lot of money for it.
A: It depends on the caliber of people you associate with.
Q: This is an interesting idea for a candle. But isn’t the whole NFT thing already kind of over?
A: It’s not over as long as there is still one person, somewhere, who believes it.
