    To further prove this:
    Bitcoin for example has a price of 46,910
    marketcap of $887,468,007,750
    Circulating supply of 18,918,525
    So do the math: 46,910 x 18,918,525 = 887,468,007,750

    Now that I have proven that part wrong can we move on?

    Now as for NFT's. You are correct in that for it to have value people have to assign value to it. That is no different from any other product. Things do not go up magically. They go up with an increase in demand. If demand goes down then price will follow so your point about you need to invest in it is accurate. However, once again this is true for any product that has a market. You have in no way shown that anything is a scam. NFT's are just digital containers that can be sold as goods. No more no less.
    Marketcap means nothing, its the total value of all the circulating coins and thats it. If you can't understand why having a high total supply, and in the case of Sandbox almost 2B differential of coins available to whats in circulation supply, and how that devalues an NFT I can't help you and I'm not explaining it to you.

    Let's establish that you were incorrect in your evaluation of what marketcap was. If you are talking about total value of all supplied coins then that is a metric called Fully diluted marketcap. There is a reason that this is a separate metric. Having a large supply is not in of itself a bad thing. It would be if the increased supply was dumped at a period of low demand. In crypto, the total supply of a token is trickled out to meet demand through an unlock period. Also, while this is an interesting chat about crypto it has nothing to do with NFTs nor does it have to do with 'devaluing' them. An NFT is not necessarily tied to crypto currency. An NFT is just a digital container of information.
