Hackers steal NFTs worth millions, from Apes to Art Blocks, in NFT Trader exploit
www.theblock.co
The major hack may be the worst attack to hit the NFT community in its history, with millions of dollars in potential losses.

The way I read the article, the “worth millions” is the sum of the ransom demand.

The funny part is that the exploit is in the “smart” contract, ya know the thing that the blockchain keeps secure by forbidding any updates or patches.

    One of the great thing about the AI revolution is that since generating infinite number of unique random (and commonly, bad) pictures of literally anything you can think of takes only seconds, the entire concept of NFT has become completely worthless as it completely destroyed the value-from-scarcity argument. Not that it ever was a good argument to begin with.
