Yeah, just as dumb as buying an original art piece for your wall instead of a print. But... it's not dumb to other people, just you and me. Other people like buying things that are provably 'only theirs'.
- meheleventyone 6y agoWhen you buy a painting you have genuine rights to the physical object. When you buy an NFT you have genuine rights to the NFT but usually none to the linked item. When you buy digital art more normally you’re essentially licensing use of it within a specified context. As you do with other IP. In theory you could do that with NFTs I think but in practice it doesn’t seem to be the case.
