This sounds like you're trying to use blockchain to invent artificial scarcity for "digital goods." The only possible benefit I see from that is letting copyright owners preserve their current business models rather than adapt to the reality that bits are freely and easily copyable.
Why would we want that?
- ThomPete 8y agoBecause it allow for value creation in s digital space. If i spend two months in a game getting some asset i would like that to be recognized so that i could sell or buy that unique item. Its not about copyright as much as its about trust in the transaction between two seemingly unrelated digital assets. It allows me to trust that i am getting what i actually paid for and not a knockoff. Watching something like fortnite makes it obvious that there is value in digital scarcity.
