Oh, you're wrong. It does! That's because if the price appreciates on the 2nd market, then it gives the artist an ability to sell new works for a higher price, as there is more demand for them. Sales drive more sales. Btw. I meant, only buy NFTs that were produced directly by the artists themselves, and the artists have rights to their work. Basically, avoid middlemen. That's what crypto is for.
