GameStop has notified customers that it's shutting down its NFT market, effective February 2. The marketplace launched in July 2022. GameStop also shut down its year-old crypto wallet in November, citing "regulatory uncertainty."

    There is actually a fantastic video essay about Gamestop bros by Folding Ideas (the guy who made Line Goes Up) called “This is financial advise”. I highly recommend listening to it, the whole thing turned out to be way more complicated than it seemed.

        Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

        Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

        I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.

      Thanks for the suggestion! It was a good video. Also reinforces my belief that the rational, boring narrative is almost always the right one.
