Ebook's could increase in price when sold second hand (owned by such and such), an open source gaming asset exchange allowing people to buy and sell no matter the game.
Basically it crypto creates physical like scarcity in an otherwise abundant digital space.
That's the biggest deal about crypto IMO.
- nrhk 9y agoYup, web of information into a web of value which more closely replicates the real world. Combine that with AR and VR tech among other wearables and sensors and we won't just be digital nomads anymore, our entire world will have become completely digitized.
- Nursie 9y agoAnd how odd that in some situations that scarcity seems to breed value, in and of itself. Humans are weird.
- jcoffland 9y agoHow does blockchain technology keep people from copying the ebooks? Why would anyone care about an abstract idea of ownership of an eBook that you could read without owning?
- ThomPete 9y agoThe value isn't in the ebook it's in the history of the ebook. Why do you think people pay extra money for a physical book they can buy cheap on amazon. It's not the content of the book it's the affectional value of the book that's interesting.
