Either way, your bank account balance changes.
What is an NFT social club and how do they work? I can see a proliferation of these in the future, particularly branded social clubs where purchasing an NFT might gain you membership in an exclusive club sponsored by a restaurant, a bar, a retail store, and other commercial enterprises where members receive special perks other customers don't receive.

3Speak launches shorts. 3Speak is the Hive blockchain's decentralized YouTube alternative, a video sharing site. I don't understand the fascination with shorts.

But I may change my mind.
