You'll recall that folks from music, sports and fine art, among other fields, are making gajillions on these non-fungible token offerings, which leverage star brands to pump up the bidding on limited-edition digital items, the authenticity of which is certified via blockchain.

In addition to retweeting this news, Em shared an amusing SNL sketch featuring various rappers (including a Slim Shady-esque character played by Pete Davidson) explaining NFTs to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen.
