      NFTs will never completely go away. Think about it from the perspective of huge companies. They can charge large amounts of money for literally nothing, and then continue to profit whenever anyone buys or sells their NFT. It's a money printing machine, and they will do anything to try to make it work.

    Here in Finland the government had a program where even some really remote farmland areas got a fibre connection for 100 euros. Yes, 100e, not missing any zeroes. The subscription is 200M 32e/m or 1000M 52e/m, which are about double than similar speed, uncapped mobile connections.

In Chattanooga TN you can get GIGABIT down and up for $65 all taxes and fees included- 300Mbps up and down is $30.

      For us, Comcast currently charges us $60 for 600 & 20 Mbp/s down and up respectively thanks to a "discount" (the regular price is $99, the promotions expire next month), but just two weeks ago we switched to T-Mobile's Home Internet; $50 forever and no data caps? Yes please!
      Our address gets about 300-500Mb depending on the time of day, with it even going as fast as 600-700Mb late at night. Upload speeds usually float between 40-60Mbp/s up, which is pretty decent, sometimes even touching 80Mb if the stars align. I'm pretty interested to see how it improves over time honestly.

      But I suspect it's 100 megabits/second, which is quite rough in the age of video game downloads being in the tens of gigabytes, and video streaming. Remember that the 100Mb/s are divided among household members. Also, it'd take you over an hour to download a 50GB video game and it's only if you get the max speed all the time. That kind of speed should be free, or at minimal price.

    As a low-income American, the whole ISP rates being more affordable is amazing! When I first signed up for AT&T, I got fiber and gigabit for $60/month + $150 visa gift card for signing up. Then, when the emergency broadband benefit came around, my bill got reduced to $30 a month. then when that ended, they automatically transitioned me to a new program that takes $30 off my bill, and then gave me an additional $20 credit per month for an entire year to keep my bill at $30 a month. FOR GIGABIT over fiber! They did that on the house too, without me even asking for it, which was awesome cuz I had no freaking idea there was another benefit, the new one also being permanent. Biden has done some great things while in office that I've benefited from directly as a poor American with disabilities and while He ain't perfect, has made some fairly big mistakes, at least he's trying to actually improve people's lives and isn't scandal ridden every month.
