Ask HN: NFTs legit or mania?

There's a lot of buzz around NFTs (non-fungible tokens) lately: https://www.coindesk.com/what-are-nfts

Some uses cases like NBA Top Shot seems like they could have lasting value, essentially a digital version of trading cards backed by the official sports league: https://www.nbatopshot.com

Other uses cases like buying Jack Dorsey's first tweet for $2.5m seem a bit more like mania to me: https://www.theverge.com/2021/3/5/22316320/jack-dorsey-original-tweet-nft-cent-valuables

Do you agree or disagree? What are your thoughts on this space and it's future?
