If the phrase "non-fungible token" doesn't make you burst out laughing, I question whether you are fully human. Fungible! It sounds like a naughty double entendre that James Joyce might have thought up late one night and slipped into Finnegans Wake.
But the news that a digital artwork that is also a non-fungible token (or NFT) was sold earlier this month by the venerable Christie's art auction house for more than $69 million (58 million) is definitely more Flann O'Brien territory.
