FaZe Banks on NFTs and StonkBrokers
FaZe Banks finds himself purchasing NFTs in 2026, a habit that leaves him questioning his motives while brushing his teeth. He wonders what triggered the action and feels the impulse must signify something important. This specific intuition previously struck only twice: when acquiring CryptoPunks at the end of 2020 and when buying Miladys in late 2023. Both instances occurred before market conditions became chaotic. During a Polymarket Bullpen discussion with ANSEM and SIMPLE FARMER, Banks shared that he holds two StonkBrokers which are staked to generate passive income. He describes the returns as appearing in his wallet similar to dividends from Apple or Nvidia, valuing the yield at approximately 500 bucks. He views this asset as a starter pack for gaining broad exposure to trading environments like Robinhood.

I'm finding myself buying NFTs in 2026. And then I'm brushing my teeth later. I'm like, why did I just do that? What about this made me do that? And I don't know. It just like, it's got to mean something, right? The only two times I've ever sparked up that feeling inside me were originally when I was buying CryptoPunks end of 2020. And then again, when I was buying Milady's late 2023, you know what I'm saying? Both of these things happened before shit really got fucking crazy. But that's how I've been explaining it to my friends. I have two of these things. They're staked. And I'm making passive income. You know what I mean? And it's just fun. It's like 500 bucks. It's just appeared in my wallet. And it's Apple and it's Nvidia, et cetera. So I think it's a cool little starter pack in place to begin your journey. If you want broad exposure, whether it's to Robinhood or just trading in general. That's at least my interpretation of it. That's how it resonated with me.
