Consider the case of Stevin John, better known as "Blippi" on the internet.
John used to perform gross-out stunts under the name "Steezy Grossman" and even went so far as to blast a friend with "explosive diarrhea" in a gag he later told the outlet was "stupid and tasteless."
Since it's the year 2022, Blippi is getting into the NFT space.
It's just another chapter in the steady drumbeat of cash grabs on the internet.
The world's largest social network and NFT education platform for kids is teaming up with a global entertainment company to create a collection of children's NFTs based on a show.
Talk about capitalism in the late stages. It's reasonable to ask why a child would want to own a NFT.
According to the mission statement of the company, they want to help kids express themselves through art and practice essential financial literacy skills, while others see it as a thinly veiled attempt to extract parents' money.
Parents can spend up to $49.99 for each pack of NFTs, with varying degrees of rarity, if they turn their hard earned cash into "Zigabucks," the platform's own currency.
The company says that all purchases are behind a gate.
"With this drop, we are opening a whole new way for kids to interact with their favorite characters and putting a Web3 spin on the popular mail-in fan clubs that I loved as a kid growing up in the 1990's," Zak Ringelstein, CEO and founder of Zig
The drop comes with exclusive content and perks that will allow kids to interact with our brand on and off screen, learn some new skills, and have fun while learning through play.
It's not clear if John's previous exploits will be included in the collection.
"If there's one thing I know Blippi loves, it's a public and permanent record of one's online activities, even under an assumed name," said Notopoulos. It makes complete sense.
Moonbug Entertainment and children's social platform Zigazoo have launched a collection.
LimeWire used to be a renowned source of porn and Malware.
