StoneToss (allegedly, formerly Red Panels)

Oh no, a guy making a free comic for 4 years devotes 5 comics to his monetization scheme.

What a sellout.

I guess we'll see but that's a high bar. It blows my mind that if he offered custom artwork for $400 it'd be crickets except people crying about how expensive that is, but pull random assets out of a hat and throw them on a jpeg and out come the
The key is that it's a novelty. You want to pay a lot for tea? Of course not. You're in 1500s and the first trader arrives on european shores with tea. You want to pay a lot? Most people scoff at it, but those curious about new experiences realize they can be the first try out something exotic.

Being among the first is part of the appeal. The fact that people get angry over it (as they do over twitch thots licking microphones or bathwater), helps because then people can't stop talking about it emotionally and this just helps reach more people.

It also reminds me of the wu tang clan album where they just produced one copy and auctioned it off. It used to be in an area where you couldn't bring recording devices so people could listen to it but not copy it. It makes money by selling to richer folks, which makes poorfags seethe even harder.

My prediction is that this might make him around 100.000$

Yes 1 of 5000 jpegs of a webcomic is very similar to a one of a kind physical copy of a CD with unreleased music from a mutliplatinum artist with no digital release packages in a custom silver ornate box, it makes sense now.
I mean just look at the similarities

Flex on those poors with your very own stoic face patriot catboy jpeg

Meanwhile shills calling Stonetoss a sellout grifter because guys listen, remember those people telling you not to buy BTC and ETH, well now they're saying the same thing about NFTs! LOL fucking buttmads. You missed out on Silly Gorillas NFT, now you poor. Want to get in on the ground floor of an NFT? Flurks is here, do you have FOMO yet or do I need to draw myself flying to the moon on a rocket with FLURKS written on the side? We got the fucking GUNT guys, Ricky fucking Berwick is in! Imagine being a US dollar cuck, inflation much?
DON'T MISS THE BOAT

Lol calm down
 
The butthurt it's causing @Cat Attack and neoliberals has me pretty bullish on it. If it was only money laundering like my original thoughts on it, it wouldn't draw such ire or passion. After all fine art has been solely a vehicle for money laundering since its conception. If it were CHUDS getting sucked into a scam, the posts and "comics" would be neutral toned attempts at mockery. The desperation and anger points towards their fear it is a viable crowd funding method.

They're angry because there is no mastercard to e-mail to get him removed.
 
I actively encourage Stonetoss or anyone else to grift NFT nerds but I'm sorry, this "NFT, FLOOR, MOON, FOMO" shilling shit while half his fans beg him to stop is funny and him dragging a bunch of lolcows in to shill it is even funnier. If you are mad people are making fun of this guy because he finally did something worth making fun of 250 pages into his thread on a forum about making fun of people fucking stay mad, it's Kiwi Farms and he's going to go back to his normal shit in a week or two and I'll go back to not caring. Until then MATI sticker > posts about how mad I am (by you, who is very not mad). You guys are really shitting up the thread with that. At least I'm staying on topic.

Post receipts so we have proof you're retærded enough to pay for a jpeg.
Selling audio files is a multi-trillion dollar industry. So is selling software packages (also files).
All of those things can be easily pirated, but in some circumstances, people choose not to.
One reason for doing so would be to support an artist. Generally, I pirate all of my digital media, but I pay for content from artists I want to support who I think could use the money.
Stonetoss selling NFTs is no different. It's like a digital media release and a merch run combined into one, but with less overhead on his end.
I don't see why people seethe so hard over this. Getting irrationally upset about this does not make you special or sophisticated.

"Irrationally upset" yes I'm over here flipping tables nigger. NFTs are a grift, they're not advertised as just supporting the artist, people like stonetoss advertise them as a new get rich quick scheme.
Look at Stones latest Instagram post and comments. More NFT shilling, every comment telling him to go back to regular comics.

I wasn't talking to you in particular. It was adressed generally to people who are shitting up this thread, Stone's social media, and everywhere else NFTs are even mentioned to repeatedly assert how much they dislike people who buy collectible tokens.
 
Until then MATI sticker > posts about how mad I am (by you, who is very not mad). You guys are really shitting up the thread with that

I welcome you posting more versions of your rants here, just as I've supported criticism and this very thread since the very beginning. You just don't sound very reasonable or funny to me and as a result I'm left thinking you're probably mad. Especially when you post another version of the same soyface comic.

Same thing with some of those comments. Look at the ford prefect post. The fact that he calls stonetoss fat and lazy, that doesn't sound like a fan, that sounds like an alogger finally seeing an avenue for attack.

Voork and americanfox are vaguely apathetic about it, so in truth you found only two comments and even those weren't that bothered.

I just don't get why a little bit of monetization gets such a big reaction from you and others. Of course a celeb doing a car ad is a bit annoying. Who likes ads? But then, who was going on this much of a screed when the lolcow known as josh moon minted some autistic silver to let people support this site in a creative way?

One might say that silver has real value, unlike NFT's, but then you're still overpaying. You're still giving away value. You're supporting something you like in a creative way. There really isn't a big difference.
