To be fair, it seems the one safe way to do NFTs is to create them to sell to others. Especially since you do not lose your own rights to the work.
Doesn't help. This guy was telling me it was artists own fault that they hadn't minted their own NFTs first, which is entitled splaination anyway but whatever. So someone posted examples where there were all these duplicate or near duplicate copies of the NFTs he was using to "prove" they were good for artists.

If they sell people WILL crop your image and remint it as a new NFT and nobody in the brosphere gives a shit.

Sure, but once you get your money... I mean art theft is already a thing - why not get something for it.

Assuming you get money, instead of tokens you can't cash out but still have to pay tax on.

And assuming the "money" you do get is more than what you paid to buy into a cryptocurrency that you had to use to mint and list the NFT.

The artist gnomes plan for making riches in NFTs:

1. Make art.
2. Turn into NFTs.
3. Profit.

The sequel will probably be better.
