The craziness and hype of NFTs is the rage, and I think snowden can't miss the opportunity to get a good profit out of this.

It is very interesting and I am sure that soon many celebrities will start to do the same. It is an interesting market and we must wait to see how it develops in the future.

Hi dear friend @news-poster
I have always thought that Snowden sacrificed himself for nothing, he became a martyr for exposing a truth that half of the population knew and the other half did not care, today they have all admitted that they spy on people from Facebook to the government From the USA, even the US government admitted the UFOs I think snowden should only wait a few years and that's it, but hey at least it showed that a single man can try to expose the system, as for the NFT well there is people willing to spend money on things so I assume they really have money left over.
greetings
