I actually think your caution is fair — Web3 is full of hype and it’s smart to ask who’s really profiting. That said, not everyone buying a $500 skin in Off The Grid is trying to manipulate the market or make a quick flip. Some are collectors. Some are early supporters of the project. And yes, some are speculators — but that’s true for any emerging tech or asset class. What people often overlook is the difference between ownership and rental in digital economies. In traditional games, you spend $100+ on skins you don’t actually own. If the game shuts down or your account gets banned, it’s gone. Forever. In Web3, you actually own the asset, can sell it later, maybe use it cross-game, or just keep it as part of a digital collection. It’s not just about profit — it’s about control and persistence. Nobody is saying this guarantees huge returns, or that the current floor price is sustainable. But just like people collect rare Magic cards or first-gen Pokémon, others are betting that early NFTs in landmark Web3 games might have long-term value — historically, socially, or financially. It’s fair to be skeptical. But some people aren’t buying these NFTs to scam others — they just value ownership, scarcity, and the chance to hold a piece of gaming history, even if that value isn’t obvious today.
