It's unfortunate that "minting" ever became a popular term, just call it what it is in context: buying, collecting, tipping, etc.

People say "mint" when they really mean "save to the blockchain", a byproduct of early adopters in the space caring too much about the tech and not enough about the benefits

NFTs are just digital receipts, calling the action of acquiring them "minting" is like saying "I saved something to the Visa database" instead of "I bought something"

Louder for the nerds in the back!

I especially dislike “mint” because it’s such a loaded and ambiguous term
