“The Wisdom of Crowds” author James Surowiecki says that “history suggests that oversupply is a reliable way to end a boom, particularly for collectibles.”
  • James Surowiecki, the author of “The Wisdom of Crowds” has recently written about oversaturation in the NFT industry on March 31, 2021. Surowiecki explains in his article called “An Oversupply of NFTs Is Going to Kill the Golden Goose,” that “the signs of oversupply are easy to see.”
  • “With NFTs, the risk of oversupply is especially acute, because there is no one in charge, and the barriers to issuance are so extraordinarily low— you can literally create a new NFT in a matter of minutes,” Surowiecki’s editorial explains. “And, unlike comic books or baseball cards, NFTs don’t fall apart or get discarded. In other words, the only thing we really know about NFTs is that there will be more of them a month from now than there are today.”
