Doesn't have to make sense (probably better if it doesn't), they're talking to Ford people!

It sounds like a typical pyramid selling scheme to me, except with this one, you don't actually buy anything physical. Just a 3D rendering of an old Falcon.
How much did it sell for?
And the grey Maloo ute. Did you see how much that made??

Is this to be the Bitcoin of the classic car world?
Just a digital representation of what one cannot physically touch, hear or drive.
("Come over mate, N check out my classic I bought.", lets sit around the big screen, wow look at it!
Hmmmm? Whats that pixelation in the vertual paint finish? It'll need some extra mb's of RAM or GB to fix that up?

I saw the bid at 20K for the black Falcon.
I don’t understand this stuff at all but selling something that doesn’t exist does seem quite fitting for Lloyds.

On the news last night they featured the yellow GTHO Ph III that Lloyds had just sold for a record $1.5m and it's virtual digital NFT counterpart (correct me if I am wrong) sold for $56,000?

The value is in the work that has gone in to it, like a digital design or art work. Where the dilemma lies is realising the rendering. The value of a design file is subject to realising that design in to a functional physical object. Where as the value in a work of art lies in its perception.

Up for sale again, apparently.

They have fixed it now, but the original models must of had the chev upgrade according to the badges on the models!
For some people who are regular buyers from their auctions, buying a cheap NFT would save them money with half prices fees for a year.
NFTs are interesting - you are buying the proof that you own a copy of the artwork, not copyright of it or anything else.
As seen with the LLoyds auctions, you can change just the colour and it is an entirely separate artwork.
All it does in the blockchain is usually point to a web address where the digital image can be found. If and when that website goes down or disappears from the internet, it will point to a non working link.

It must just be funny money.
I might turn this post into a NFT and as I own it, I will then take offers over $1000,000 for the ownership rights.
You can copy it for nothing, but until sold, I still own it.
Is that how it works?

Maybe the “buyer” put their glasses on and realised how frOcking ugly it was

And now there is a whole auction full of them. Who would have thought Persian Sand would bring the most money. Must be a diehard A9X fan bidding on that one!!!

Yep, Persian Sand = Brown =
Seem to have a lot of images with white interior? Or are my glasses fogged up?
And what an insult these NFT things are. I can’t believe there are Torana “fans” buying this crap.
