You have a token and a jpeg. I have the exact same jpeg. It's not an original in a gallery vs. a mass market print, the copies are identical.
Why should anyone care about who owns the damn token?
- CryptoPunk 6y agoThere are cultural currents that place a value on ownership of intellectual property. Imagine various MMOGs recognizing some NFT standard as authoritative, and only allowing designs to be used for character skins if the gamer owns the NFT corresponding to the design.
- meheleventyone 6y agoAs far as I can tell NFTs don’t actually give ownership of the IP. It’s not like the NFT owner could go around DMCAing other copies of the work?
- CryptoPunk 6y agoYou're right, they provide a verifiable testament of the creator's will as to who should have ownership rights over the IP, which is enough to provide ownership rights in many contexts.
