Can the future owner edit the tweet?
- hntrader 6y agoOr can the account owner delete a tweet after selling it as a NFT?
- qqii 6y agoLegally, who knows? Technically yes. As for my take, the NFT is just a data, accepted to represent the idea of that Jack minted and is now selling the tweet. Contractually he hasn't agreed to give you rights to editing or deleting the tweet.
- rzzzt 6y agoThe last two paragraphs are a bit confusing to me. One is saying that the company auctioning the tweets compares the process to acquiring signed baseball cards -- but I can draw sunglasses on the player's photo with a sharpie if I want to, in that case. I am certainly not allowed to draw sunglasses on the player with a sharpie, of course, that would be very rude. So is Jack selling _the_ tweet, or a signed "photograph" of the tweet? Is the buyer the "tweet's buyer", as it stands in the last paragraph or a... I'm out of analogies.
