Why You Shouldn't Invest in NTF's

About this video

Shaan shares his skepticism about NFTs as an investment strategy, arguing that most people buy them as speculative lottery tickets rather than for genuine utility or artistic appreciation. He recounts his own NFT experiences, including a profitable Kobe Bryant artwork sale, while cautioning that the losses in the space will likely outweigh gains and encouraging people to be honest about their true motivations for buying.

Key takeaways

  • Shaan believes most NFT buyers are speculating on price appreciation rather than investing based on utility or artistic merit, making it fundamentally a lottery ticket strategy
  • Shaan’s personal NFT portfolio included some profitable trades (a Bosslogic Kobe artwork that 10x’d, Aku NFTs that doubled), but also holdings that became worthless and couldn’t even be given away
  • Shaan suggests the only honest reason to buy an NFT is genuine appreciation for the art itself; claiming otherwise (community, potential upside, FOMO) reveals the speculative nature of the purchase
