"Cryptoids" sounds better, but it's not the appropriate suffix on a technical level.

Also, yes, they are stupid, but their hearts are in the right place.

I mean, this one is kind of interesting to me because that particular art book only has two copies in existence, since its all of the material compiled by Alejandro Jodorowsky for his original planned film adaptation from the early 70s.

It's hilarious and pathetic that crypto morons can have that much money and blow it on stuff like this and still not even understand what the fuck an NFT is while I fucking loathe the entire concept and unwillingly know what one is. :l

I bet someone will take a picture of a person, then make that an NFT, which according to their logic makes that person their property.

Are they trying to claim they own the photo or person though?

A physical book with an estimated only 10-20 copies in existence.

This has nothing to do with Frank Herbert but rather it's materials related to a movie that never got made. The copyright owner would be whoever was licenced to make that movie which may or may not be WB I don't know.

The people who bought it are crypto investors apparently. Some people are blaming NFTs for making people believe they own something for buying a copy. This purchase isn't actually a NFT however.

In the plan, they talk about buying a book, converting it into JPGs, then burning the book, meaning that the "only copies" remaining will be the JPGs.
The poster believed that this would enhance the value of the NFT chain as the only legal copy of the book, and would be an "incredible marketing stunt" and may even present an opportunity to sell a video of them burning the book as an NFT.
In their announcement for having purchased the book (which again is not the copyright) however, their goal appeared to be to allow others to read it by making it public, before releasing an animated series of the novel, which would undoubtedly get them sued into the ground by the actual copyright holders, currently The Herbert Limited Partnership, should they so choose.

Damn, the cryptocult is already leaping ahead to the 'book burning' phase.

Buying an NFT gives the buyer the rights to use it for whatever they want.

These guys bought the book thinking the same thing applies. That since they own it, that they have the rights to use it's content as they see fit.

It gives you the right to use the NFT however you like. You do not get rights associated with any corresponding art to your NFT.

It's an odd occurrence when a book expected to fetch 25,000 goes for 100 times that amount

What the fuck?

Their twitter is pretty funny because they still don't realize anything yet. People have told them, but they just ignore it. Even their twitter bio is bragging about this.
