The story behind the 'Glitch in the metaverse' NFT.

At the moment there is a lot of enthusiasm surrounding NFT technology. Expectations are high. It reminds me of the high expectations surrounding blockchain technology in 2015 - 2017. I wrote the first Dutch book on Bitcoin blockchain in 2015. Since then I have given more than 150 lectures on it. So I know the enthusiasm, also in myself. The reality, however, is more complex.

This video is meant as a gag, as a self-mockery of my own field of profession. To put the current enthusiasm and high expectations into perspective. My message: Keep looking critically at the limitations, risks, overestimation and deception of NFT's.

"When your heart is aching and your soul is in pain. Then buy crypto's, NFT's and drink a cup of blockchain."

In this video you don't see the real Jarno Duursma. It is my avatar. For the appearance and voice, I used the platform Synthesia. I made the music myself. The visuals were made by Frank Schaap. You may know him from studio Frank and Lisa. You can find his website here https://www.behance.net/Jalad
