PewDiePie floored by \u201cuncanny\u201d $4 million NFT of himself Wallem Skins, OpenSea \/ YouTube: PewDiePieNFTs are all the rage right now, with oodles of companies jumping on the trend\u2026 but PewDiePie isn\u2019t sure how to feel about an unofficial NFT someone made in his likeness. Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg is YouTube\u2019s most-subscribed independent content creator, having just reached 111 million subscribers and standing as the platform\u2019s fourth most-subbed channel overall. As such, it wouldn\u2019t come as a surprise if the Swedish internet star had an NFT of himself\u2026 and it turns out, he actually does \u2014 except he didn\u2019t sign off on it. PewDiePie discussed the Non-Fungible Token phenomenon during a December 16 YouTube video, finding them at once both ridiculous and intriguing before showing off an NFT that someone had made of him. PewDiePie reacts to $4 million NFT of himself The 3D-modeled PewDiePie can be seen head-bopping to an indeterminate beat, wearing a classic brofist T-Shirt alongside the YouTuber\u2019s well-worn pink and black headphones. It\u2019s a dead-ringer for the influencer, and it\u2019s certainly an object of curiosity \u2014 one that costs a whopping $4,026,347.10. Kjellberg appeared to be flabbergasted by the NFT, and quickly warned fans that he \u201cof course, had nothing to do with this.\u201d \u201cGod damn it, what the f**k?\u201d he laughed. \u201cIt sold for four million? How? It\u2019s so uncanny. It looks just like me. Honestly, I get it. Jesus Christ, dude.\u201d Although Pewds wasn\u2019t exactly exuberant over his own NFT, he generally finds the tokens to be fairly interesting, if uninspired. \u201cListen, I think it\u2019s still cool,\u201d the YouTuber said. \u201cI just think people are doing lame s**t with it. That\u2019s my whole point with this.\u201d (Topic begins at 1:58) \u201cLike I said, I think there\u2019s cool stuff to be done with NFTs, it\u2019s just that no one is doing it,\u201d he added. \u201cIt\u2019s just people that don\u2019t care who are just trying to cash in, and therefore it\u2019s lame. Until that changes, it\u2019s lame.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
