Zero Contact, The Validation

avatar

Cryptocurrency "is rat poison" that's going to change the world as we know it. It's the second time I'm stating that in a day. I was reading today a post of @taskmaster4450 about Hollywood and how it is going to get eaten by crypto and I've just stumbled upon a news announcing the first movie to be released as an NFT, featuring the legendary Anthony Hopkins.

Oscar-winner Anthony Hopkins is playing a tech billionaire in sci-fi film Zero Contact—and it's being released as an NFT. Vuele is the digital distribution and viewing platform where you can find Anthony Hopkin's movie released as an NFT.

Can you even grasp that?...

An Anthony Hopkins movie released as an NFT. One that has been filmed in 17 different locations since the pandemic has started and was probably designed to be released as an NFT since its inception. "Buyers will be able to purchase the NFT of Zero Contact using either cryptocurrency or credit cards."

Someone tell me crypto is not eating the world alive and revolutionizing everything in its way and I'll happily disagree...

Zero Contact has created a precedent for the movie industry being released as an NFT, same as El Salvador has done with Bitcoin making it an every day used currency. What's next? Well, more to follow suit and sooner than later we will find ourselves in a world where digital ownership becomes "validated by the masses", actually being the only true ownership humanity has ever had, and cryptocurrencies resurrecting a "born dead financial system".

I am not into NFTs, haven't owned one yet, but I see the value behind them, I see the trends and I'm confident about their future. I'm not confident about all sort of shitty jpegs maintaining their current insane value, but this concept is here to stay and @taskmaster4450 was right, Hollywood is a dying industry.

With NFTs able to represent any form of digital content, it looks likely that—as with the early Internet—they'll move from being a distribution platform for digital art, to music and then to film. Zero Contact may be the first feature film to be released as an NFT, but it's certainly not going to be the last.

You can bet it won't be the last one, as you can bet El Salvador won't be the first and last country to make Bitcoin legal tender. They're all gonna fall like dominos, or should I say, like lambs in front of the hungry lions(leos). Even the idea that President Putin’s Press Secretary saying Russia ‘Not Ready’ to Adopt Bitcoin points towards the potential of adopting it.

Bitcoin might look weak price wise, for some around in the crypto space, and the dollar valuation could still be shaking weak hands out in the short term, but the thing is that "this snowflake has already caused an avalanche". One I'd happily dive in. Have a great weekend folks and see you to the next one.

Thanks for attention,
Adrian

I also don't have NFT, but I am searching it as well as Metaverse.

I still don't grasp this craze about NFTs. Call me old-fashioned or even worse yet ... What exactly is an NFT?

FOr me, it's a unit of digital content with a serial number on it. That's it. The quality of the content is not an attribute of an NFT. The prize is. These two are not related at all as you can all see.

Anyways, what is a movie as an NFT? Let's check the link you provided ... Back after watching the trailer. It tells me nothing. Should I be intrigued and attracted to watch the movie?

Checking Vuele ... I still don't get it. So I'll buy this NFT and get to watch the movie? IT sounds like buying an ordinary digital media or a ticket to see the movie or to borrow the DVD infinitely or until I sell it further :)

Will there be a limit to NFTs sold? If not then I don't see any difference. Because producing a movie of this magnitude is expensive and needs people to buy tickets to watch it. Many people.

OK, I'll register at Vuele just in case. Let's live to see what'll happen :)

Although crypto is a ten years old space, we're still in its incipient phases. You're curiosity of actually trying this is admirable.

BTW, what's about this @steemflagrewards upvote you've got?

I run a bot that was designed to encourage engagement on LeoFinance and POB for my list of peeps which I need to update and add positive contributors like yourself. It's my autocurator for when I am AFK. Hope that helps

Thanks a lot for your answer. The name of the account is a bit misleading and that's why I asked :)

It was originally used to reward moderation on Steem but we plan to relaunch on Hive eventually (and other platforms). Working through a few personal matters so I can attain proper focus.
