What makes this particular advertisement more distasteful is that it's being promoted as something being done in memory of Stan Lee.

"Honoring what would have been Stan Lee’s 99th birthday on December 28th, we are inviting all of Stan’s fans to celebrate his amazing legacy with us by sharing ownership in a limited NFT collectible around one of his first international superheroes," readsthe Orange Comet website.

Stan Lee was the mastermind behind some of Marvel Comics' most beloved superheroes, such as Spider-man, Fantastic Four, The Avengers, and X-Men, among many others. He was such a beloved figure in the comic book world that he made cameos in every Marvel Universe film from Iron Manall the way up until Avengers: Endgame.

Sadly, Stan Lee passed awayin November 2018 at the age of 95.

NFTs, or non fungible tokens, are basically digital collectibles, usually in the form of digital art. When buyers purchase an NFT, they aren't actually purchasing the actual art but the token that's connected to the art, which gets recorded to the blockchain, basically to prove they "own" the piece on the blockchain.

The NFT market has exploded over the past year along with the rest of thee cryptocurrency industry as buyers look to invest in speculative assets. The digital artist Beeple, for example, soldan NFT of his work at auction in May 2021 for $69 million.

However, NFTs are gradually experiencing more of a pushback from the average internet user.

Critics complain that much of the art made for the purpose of NFTs are quite ugly. Many NFT projects consist of just a few original art assets which are then combined via computer generation to automatically create thousands of "unique" pieces. Some critics find NFTs to be exploitative – basically, NFT advocates are looking to commodify anything and turn everything into a speculative asset like a stock. NFTs are also incredibly bad for the environment, as the majority of the industry is based on the energy-wasting Ethereum network.

According to Orange Comet's website, the Chakra NFT drop will include 6,880 different NFTs at a yet to be determined price. The NFTs will be released on the Polygon network, which is more energy efficient than the incredibly wasteful Ethereum network.

It should be noted that Marvel is notinvolved with this NFT project. Stan Lee did create Chakra the Invincible, but Marvel was not involved with this particular character.

As NFTs spread into different internet cultures, they seem to meetheavy resistanceat every turn. However, just like with the rest of cryptocurrency, there's big money in the form of venture capitalists, brand marketers, and other wealthy techies who will continue to push NFTs where they're generally not wanted.

So, hang in there, true believers. You'll likely be seeing a lot more of NFTs invading your favorite fandoms.
