Dynamic Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) Avatar Profile Pictures

[Balalaika]

If our steam avatar/profile pic was some form of dynamic nft keeping records of games and other activities and achievements on steam and we could somehow carry this over to other platform and social media. Only if someone could create something like this. Also could help fight piracy. More people would buy games to level up their dynamic profile nft.

its like the grifters have now run out of ideas to make actually useful things and are literally just slapping it onto stuff that doesnt benefit it and makes no sense at all.

Jesus no.

[Gwarsbane]

God please no. Keep the nft nonsense off Steam.

Awful idea. No.

I like how this is always the counter-argument when it comes to crypto/NFTs.

“Dynamic” would rather go without saying, eh? Presumably the “token” you’d want is blockchainy—so why would Valve want one over the normal DBs they could maintain instead?

If that’s an incorrect presumption ... why tokenize at all?

.... and we could somehow carry this over to other platform and social media ....

A .... hyperlink .... would seem to do that rather nicely, as it stands.

.... Also could help fight piracy ....

Piracy of what?

.... More people would buy games to level up their dynamic profile nft.

How many?

No, it really isn't.
Following other people's ideas and thinking it's a good idea doesn't make it a good idea. Please do tell us how at all this would ever be a good idea.

I doubt it would "fight piracy" either.

Nothing about the idea of a profile that can be referenced on outside websites even requires crypto nonsense.

Just post a link to your steam profile on social media.

^^ seriously we can already link accounts all over the place.

Maybe someone should tell the OP about all those older sites before discord was a thing... discus, my avatar still loads on sites using that system and it's like 20 years old (though I can't recall if it's still open for new accounts).
