Keanu Reeves laughs at the NFT hype



NFTs are currently one of the hottest irons in the digital crypto world. Not for everyone, however. Hollywood star Keanu Reeves can only laugh about it.


Keanu Reeves is currently on everyone's lips again. The Hollywood star can currently be seen in the cinema with “The Matrix Resurrections”, a sequel to Matrix Revolutions from 2003. The second leading role is played, as was the wonderful Carrie-Anne Moss.



In an interview with the technology portal “ The Verge ”, the two actors also came up with the subject of NFTs. NFT stands for "Non Fungible Token" and describes online goods that cannot be replaced or destroyed. They are especially popular in the digital art world. The technology is currently being used to sell tweets, GIFs and digital works of art - sometimes for gigantic sums of money


Reeves bursts out laughing

The makers of "The Matrix Resurrections" jumped on this trend and created NFTs for the movie. These were so popular that they temporarily crashed the website they were being sold on.



Reeves' reaction to the subject, however, came a little ... unexpected: In an interview with "The Verge" he burst out laughing when the name NFT was mentioned. In his opinion, they are a hoax because they are "easy to reproduce", he emphasized - for example, by saving an NFT with a simple right-click.


NFTs are "climate killers"

For Reeves, this is an artificial scarcity that goes against the ethos of the internet. In addition, NFTs are real “climate killers”, writes the “Monopol” magazine. Research by the artist Memo Akten, for example, came to the conclusion that the footprint of a single NFT corresponds to the electricity consumption of an EU citizen over a period of more than a month. According to Forbes Magazine, “NFTs and most cryptocurrencies are pouring gasoline on our burning planet”.



Reeves' clear stance is all the more refreshing as many celebrities like Snoop Dogg, Eminem or Reese Witherspoon are very sympathetic to NFTs. Reeves, on the other hand, does not seem to have made it into the matrix, at least in this area.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has
