Call them pointers, or whatever you want. but to say they don't do any of that is not really true nor conducive to the discussion.

- user-the-name 5y agoThey don't, though. An NFT can't prove authenticity of a physical object.
- stavros 5y agoThis is an interesting thought: I buy an object and the NFT with it. Then I swap it and sell you a fake lookalike, and the NFT. Which one is the "original" object now? Who is the owner of the "valuable" object? Is it the person who holds the NFT, or the person who holds the original? Most people would say it's the latter, but what makes an object valuable is not as clear-cut. Yes, a fake Picasso isn't as valuable as a real Picasso, but the NFT was (presumably) verifiably minted by the original artist, so maybe the NFT is the art, and the object is just something that comes with.

- user-the-name 5y agoNot a claim anyone has made.
- stavros 5y agoThe great thing about three-word replies is that nobody can accuse you of making any claims.
