Being famous isn't "all it takes" to make it, we know that already and nobody would make that claim... There's tons of failed products from famous people, either real or crypto.

And I don't think "making things valuable to the community" is it either, at least from what I can tell. Nobody has explained to me what that really means... Selling tickets for tattoos on NFT instead of just booking an appointment isn't it, IMO. Or even selling tickets to NFT events, although that ads to what I think is all that matters, and that's hype.

It's all hype... How is hype generated? That's the secret right?

The ape stuff has the backing of one of the largest talent agencies in the world, so you have all these famous people showing off their apes. And it comes across as cringy to normal people, but NFT speculators see it and go all in on it. It's pretty impressive to witness.. Gross and corny, but impressive

Now several people made a lot of money selling Beanie Babies, so it doesn't invalidate it as a money making option. Just try not to be the one holding all the babies when it does come crashing down
