In Proof That Irony Is Dead, People are Trying to Make Beanie Babies NFTs

The Beanie Babies craze of the 90s was when people thought their stuffed animals would make them millionaires.

Some people are hoping to turn the little animals into NFTs.

It is history repeating itself, in other words, a flourishing market of toys maturing into a logical 21st century conclusion.

There is a rush.

The parallels between the two phenomena have not been noted by the heads of collectors.

Arthur Suszko, a Beanie Babies collector, said that there were parallels between Beanie mania in the 90s and the current NFTs.

Suszko is in the process of setting up a company that will allow people to buy Beanie Babies ownership rights in the form of an NFT.

He told the publication that it was a merger of his childhood dreams and modern passions.

History repeating itself.

The Beanie Babies craze is still alive, but it is a shadow of its former self. The plushies that used to retail for $5 are still being bought for $1,000 or more, according to a report.

Beanie Babies are a scam on the internet. That should sound familiar to anyone following the NFT saga.

Will Suszko's NFT marketplace be the same? He doesn't think there is a bright future for the digital token.

He said that nobody will care about random jpegs that are selling for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The Beanie Baby bubble burst.

NFTs will store precious artifacts in a vault on the International Space Station.
