PFPs deserve their moment again. We've watched avatar NFTs evolve from hype to substance—the community, the identity, the real utility. Too many wrote them off too soon. But things are shifting. Better designs, authentic communities building actual value. The space is getting smarter about what makes a PFP worth holding. Whether it's access, utility, or pure cultural relevance, profile pictures are becoming more than just JPEGs. Time to give PFPs the credit they're due.

Alright, PFP has indeed made a comeback this time, much better than those overused avatars from back then.
But to be honest, it still depends on whether the community has real value; pure aesthetics can't last long.
The reputation that was damaged when a bunch of people were harvesting profits before—what can they use to wash it now?

To be honest, PFP should have turned around a long time ago. The previous wave of people was indeed too early. Now, the community's maturity level is completely different.

That's right, PFP has been overly criticized. Looking back now, many projects are actually working hard on their development.
It's about time for a turnaround. Those who are still holding should be laughing.
In this round of the market, PFP will redefine its value, no longer just pure hype.

The pfp turnaround this time is quite interesting; finally, someone has spoken out.
It's about time to re-evaluate; not everything is just JPEG speculation.
This time is truly different; community building is indeed changing.

Honestly, PFP should have turned things around long ago. Why are those critics from back then not saying a word now?

Honestly, PFP should have turned things around a long time ago. The group of people who criticized them early on really jumped to conclusions too soon.
