The artist can sign a message including your public key. The message is verifiable using the artist's public key. If other people copy it, they're just copying the proof that it belongs to you.
If you want to sell it to someone else, you sign a message saying you give it to them and so on, forming a "chain" of signed transactions.
- arnarbi 6y agoAny owner can sign as many receipts of sale as they want.
- klipt 6y agoCan't an artist also mint as many NFTs as they want?
- elefanten 6y agoWhat stops an original owner (of the to-be-digitized asset) from selling an NFT on the same thing multiple times? Perhaps on multiple different platforms?
- supermatt 6y agoNothing, but they can only sign the "first" once
- drusepth 6y agoIf the NFT is just a pointer to a digital good, can't they have multiple "first" NFTs all referring to the same digital good?
- cbovis 6y agoYes and no. If they minted multiple within the same block then yes. If not, then proof of first minted NFT could be verified by block height.
- anonporridge 6y agoThey could mint or 'sign' as many as they want. But like a painting that can be copied, people decide to disproportionately value the first one...just because.
- supermatt 6y agosure, but unless they are signed in the same block, then there will be a "first".
