> All those poo-pooing NFT's will miss NFT gaming and gambling like a freight train to the face.

This seems like a win-win to me. Gambling is a waste of money and NFT gaming sounds like an awful slog ("play to earn" indeed) combined with "pay to win" for those that can afford it.

No thanks.

Gambing is gambling. Nothing to say there.

I think good devs will try to balance that pay to win aspect out. If me and my guild get together for a day long slog into level 50 of some dungeon for a guaranteed rare NFT loot drop worth $10,000 in real world fiat tradable on a open market for assets in other games, then it might be worth my while.

Saying in the open that cryptocurrencies are good because they allow gambling is an interesting development in the ever-evolving field of excuses for why cryptocurrecy is useful. What is next, saying that ramsomware is actually a good thing?
