Here's a funny contradiction I spotted: some folks claim they're totally bearish on the whole NFT space, yet their profile picture is a Pudgy Penguin. Make it make sense, right? At the end of the day, it's literally just pixels on a screen—a JPEG file. Yet people are willing to hold them, collect them, and defend the whole ecosystem. The irony is pretty hard to miss.

Say you're bearish, but your profile picture still clings to the penguin—this move is absolutely brilliant!

Say no with words, but the body is honest. This is the true portrayal of Web3 people haha

This is a classic case of game theory. Words say no, but the body tells the truth. The problem isn't with JPEG itself, but with the incentive structure that has long been distorted— the moment you are reluctant to cut your losses, the irony is already complete.

Well... this is how I feel every night at 3 AM when I look at chain data. I say I dislike NFTs, but my profile picture is still a PFP. I spent $100 on gas fees just to prove I dislike NFTs. I’ve calculated this move, and the ROI is absolutely terrible.
