Yeah, but wish it was linked to the NFT a little better so not just anyone could enter.

I agree with Finn. Anytime you have to call your product "this isn't a worthless token" it does beg to wonder what their future expectations are for their currency. What is the next level? "TWIT's"? (Totally Worth It Tokens)

i just like after two decades of the internet the new thing they are trying to do is convince art collectors to pay for .gifs and .jpegs.

its just about the crypto. and thats fine. it just seems like a volatile market that is kinda antithetical to how the internet has worked.

but i would never collector shame. at least publicly.

This wasn't sold with crypto, LGND is credit card sales only, so USD.
It cost $8, and you have a shot at this new print for free + other possibilities in the future.
So collect it for the art, or consider it a cheap lottery ticket (and a lottery ticket that you can sell for 20x cost even if it looses).
