This article is about stolen NFT cartoon monkeys. Reminds me of Dave's animations.

It does not surprise me that they earn the biggest percentage through free marketing when they have a huge follower base. Even on Giphy you get famous names getting huge publicity when they make gifs from videos.

@Craig Long AdSense on YouTube is something I never helped with, but I do understand that you need many thousands of views to be eligible. I look forward to seeing your short funny videos and may even upload a few myself.

@Dave Sutton Well that gives me some incentive to upload some. I might stick to music at first since my channel is all music. I had 7,000 watch hours at one time but deleted several videos which put me under the threshold. I have enough subscribers to monetize but not enough watch hours to monetize. 4,000 watch hours for the preceding 12 month period is required. If I had not deleted videos I could have applied for monetization. Deleting a lot of junk helped to bring in the subscribers so I'm not sorry I deleted my junk videos.

@Craig Long If it is anything like monetization on websites, you earn next to nothing anyway

@Craig Long What I have noticed is that many NFTs are not particularly good or works of art, so it is really just a matter of luck if an image increases in value. I was tempted at first to try my luck, but it goes against my principles to take advantage of other people. I was one of the early settlers on the internet, when it was a nice place, and people shared things free of charge, so I think I will make a fun post on Twitter denouncing any interest in NFTs The video was great, and reinforced what many people had already told me on Twitter.

@Dave Sutton I've never made a single penny on the internet. I never got into it enough to make it pay off. I've only been here 10 years and have not seen the early days of the internet.
