There are so many more uses for this besides digital art. Digital art is probably the worst application for the reason cited in the article. The marginal cost to make a perfect copy of digital art is zero. Linking an NFT to a real world asset I think is more interesting. Or at the very least a digital asset for which there is some benefit of ownership. Ticket to an event, rights to the royalty stream from a song or art piece, domain names, etc... Unisocks is an example of an NFT linked to a real world item. This digital art thing just feels like the easiest possible construct for pure speculation.
