There's an interesting contradiction playing out in the NFT space. One moment the community is pushing hard for traditional art world recognition and legitimacy. The next? They're up in arms because OpenSea lists everything in dollars instead of ETH.
It's the classic Web3 paradox—wanting mainstream acceptance while staying committed to the native crypto ethos. Can't have it both ways, or can you?

Haha, a typical two-faced persona, wanting mainstream approval but reluctant to lose the native feel.

This is hilarious. If you're going to integrate with traditional systems, don't pretend to be decentralized.

Nah, this is a classic case of trying to have it both ways—want mainstream money but also want to appear native. It's hilarious.

Basically, it's wanting both the fish and the bear's paw, haha.

That's the common problem among Web3 people—wanting to have two bowls of rice but not wanting to get fat.

This is the chaos of Web3 — on one hand shouting to enter the art gallery, and on the other being overwhelmed by USD pricing... Basically, it still just wants to have its cake and eat it too.

Haha, really incredible. To get approval, it also has to be priced in ETH. What is this guy thinking?

Haha, isn't this a typical case of "wanting both the fish and the bear's paw"? Wanting recognition from the traditional art circle while stubbornly adhering to crypto fundamentalism—it's truly amusing.

Well, if you ask me, these folks really want to have their cake and eat it too... want to be recognized by the traditional art circle but are reluctant to leave ETH. They're a bit greedy, huh.
