the campaign plan is to earn some grub stake by way of initial staking, buying into the public trading at anything resembling sanity level, get capital out, and re-invest into same space, but perhaps away from infrastructure (i.e. block chain / internet anything) and into the industry-specific apps (i.e. insurance / amazon) and ancillaries (i.e. block-chain I-bank / Softbank etc etc)
believe there is time because it is all very early even as BTC at ~50K
either above is valid or the future for the planet is very dim
in which case buy gold
the tradable citizenship may not be so difficult to implement after all as folks can be enabled to swap tax domiciles, allowing freedom to reign supreme via tokenisation of everything

New York Times Sells NFT Column in an Auction for $560,000

The New York Times sold an article tied to an NFT, or nonfungible token, for about $560,000, another sign of the red-hot market for digital collectibles.
“Buy This Column on the Blockchain!” from Times journalist Kevin Roose was turned into an NFT and auctioned off on the open market, with the proceeds going to the newspaper’s Neediest Cases Fund, which supports charitable causes.
The actual subject of the column published Wednesday was NFTs, which carry certificates of authenticity proving that online works of art are unique. On Thursday, he tweeted that it had sold.
There’s been a boom in sales of NFTs. In March, a work by the digital artist Beeple sold for $69 million at Christie’s. NFTs are tied to digital ledgers such as blockchains and are difficult to fake.
“Why can’t a journalist join the NFT party, too?” Roose wrote in this column.
Times shares briefly rose on Roose’s tweet, a sign that some investors may have momentarily thought the publisher had discovered a lucrative new business.
Before it's here, it's on the Bloomberg Terminal.
