Sherman's Lagoon by Jim Toomey for July 27, 2022

Nifty.

Crypto currency is a stellar idea compared to NFTs

And Sherman still wants to know if he can eat one.

Ugh. I’m with Sherman.

Get those brainiacs at the White House to explain these types, enjoy listening to their definition of a recession.

Basically, you pay a lot of money to have your name added to the list of owners. You don’t get the thing, you just get to tell everyone you own it. Like if someone let you buy the Mona Lisa for a million dollars, but he gave you a cheap reproduction from the gift shop and put a sign next to the real one that says you own it.

You’re wasting your time explaining it to Sherman, Ernest. It’s like talking to algae.

My dad received an NFT from his big compnay work as one of the prizes for an anniversary giveaway along with a bobblehead.

Is it bad that I too am trying to learn what they are from a comic?

At least, Ernest is going to get 10 bucks out of this.

Sounds like a digital shell game.

“It’s still ten bucks. I take crypto.” In the current crypto prices, that’s about fifty bitcoins, then.

If it’s irreversible, how do they block straw purchases?

Mmm hmm! Nope still don’t get the appeal. Why would you want money that isn’t safe from hackers & isn’t insured, unlike at a bank? Or an NFT which is just a digital image of something that might not even be theirs to sell?
