For anyone who hasn't caught on: This is a blatant money grab from someone who is "selling shovels" in the NFT gold rush.

Ask yourself: What value does an NFT even bring to this situation? Why must someone mint an NFT, with extremely high transaction fees, just to attend a time-limited course? Once you've taken the course, you can't even trade the value of the course to someone else. NFTs don't make any sense at all in this use case.

Nobody should be paying $6000 for a "Crypto College" course that is hosted by a Twitter personality who recently pivoted into crypto and NFTs.

Greg Isenberg is working hard at becoming a personality cult on Twitter. He pivoted to crypto/NFTs a few months ago and this "Crypto College" is his latest money grab. You can see related comments on his recent NFT idea for a preview of just how bad it is: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29129070

Please don't take the bait. You won't learn anything from a couple hours of Greg Isenberg videos that is worth parting with up to $6500 of money.

Dude's a next level clout chaser.

Couple months ago he was spouting a community-led future and selling access to a private community building course, now he's all in on NFTs.

I wouldn't trust this guy with a cent of my money.

Love how this claims that NFTs are “meeting needs” - “Understand ways to identify unmet needs that Web3 can create 10x solutions for”. Typical crypto-bro nonsense with no specifics - what need do NFTs meet aside from money laundering and gambling?
