Wait so you can create an NFT on a tweet that you don't own? You're just claiming ownership in this NFT universe but it doesn't entitle you to anything related

Wait so you can create an NFT on a tweet that you don't own? You're just claiming ownership in this NFT universe but it doesn't entitle you to anything related to the tweet does it? Meaning Jack Dorsey who "owns" the tweet didn't create an NFT on the tweet, a 3rd party did?
- cloudking 6y agoIn this system https://v.cent.co/ https://v.cent.co/ anyone can bid for a tweet, and it's up to the actual Twitter user who created the tweet to verify ownership and mint/sell the NFT via their system. All you own by buying it is the token, the real owner of the tweet could delete it any time :) see what I mean about mania?
- m12k 6y agoAn NFT really is just a commemorative plaque that says "I own [URL HERE]". It doesn't come with some crypto-backed security that only you can do anything with whatever is at the URL. It doesn't give you any legal rights unless backed by a separate contract (which could just as well have been made without the NFT). All it guarantees is that no other plaque with exactly the same words can exist on that blockchain.
