One of the biggest misconceptions with the web3 social narrative is the belief that users want their data publicly available on chain, they don't. Users want privacy. They want the ability to try on a more authentic version of themselves with no strings attached.

Minting 110k compressed NFTs cost about 0.65 SOL. With a free RPC from @heliuslabs it minted 2,000 every 7.5 minutes and it took 2 hours to write the minting service. It could be optimized maybe 30% more with the free RPC where a premium RPC it would be 2-3x+ faster.
