Talk:Non-fungible tokens
Add topicGenericide[edit source]
This is a section I want to consider workshopping with others before its inclusion inside of the article. I want to focus on the nature of many NFTs being created in a mass-produced method just to give users procedurally generated slop to purchase, and how it ties into the NFT game industry which preys on random generation for minting.

Some sources I have glanced at but have yet to be included for this article, some may not actually fit the article, but could give some ideas for expansion in the future.
