NFTs have already felt the wrath of gamers.
Now, comic book lovers, superhero movie fans, and Marvel aficionados alike are lashing out against NFTs, too.
On Tuesday morning, the late Stan Lee’s Twitter account sent out a tweet promoting NFTs of the Indian superhero Chakra the Invincible that will be sold in the coming weeks. The link in the tweet, “chakraverse.io,” sends users to a website belonging to Orange Comet, a company that creates NFTs for brands and sports teams.

”From championing diversity to embracing new tech, Stan was 1 step ahead of the curve,” reads the tweet. “To honor his innovative spirit, Stan’s 1st Indian hero, Chakra The Invincible, debuts in his own NFT (digital art) collection from 7:30pm PT 12/27-12pm PT 12/29! Sign up: http://chakraverse.io“
The backlash to this promotional tweet being sent from Stan Lee’s Twitter account was swift and unforgiving.
MY OPINION : This is disgusting the man is dead , let him rest in peace . This is the world we live in today . Putting words in a dead man’s mouth . Don’t let these asshole’s fool you . If this is what you need to do to sell your product . It and you are worthless . And not worth buying .
