But NFTs don't lie about curing diseases, they claim to be a receipt to a code that's associated with an image. Which is honestly what they are. The issue is that it's extremely overvalued but there's nothing legally fraudulent about that, just consumers who have overvalued a dumb concept. I hate them but I'm just saying it's not technically a scam
