My interest in mainstream tech is waning. Maybe it's from counting too many c's
in externalities. A lot of us have been _lucky_ in tapering expectations against
the professional marketing psychologists.

I'm something of an [NFT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-fungible_token) expert without actually gambling at the tables (not
[nftables](https://www.nftables.org/)). I peered into the
movements of the [crystal globe](https://www.wikipedia.org/) and almost
saw a [vision](https://www.investopedia.com/investing/why-centralized-crypto-mining-growing-problem/).

There's a draft on my other blog sitting around about coins as a currency,
drafted in the local mania. Luckily, I lost my naivete then and wrote something
about web browsers somewhere. There are true believers and then those who speculate
on the bread and the fish.
