Your argument is about digital art, and has little to do with NFTs. No one is claiming that the owner of an NFT has different access to the piece of digital art

Your argument is about digital art, and has little to do with NFTs. No one is claiming that the owner of an NFT has different access to the piece of digital art itself, of course.
- scoopertrooper 5y agoThen, what is the value of the NFT? You own the rights to a hyperlink?
- tshaddox 5y agoNo, you own the NFT, which people value because the artist issued it.
- scoopertrooper 5y agoCool, if you want to pay real dollars for a digitally signed link to a web resource, go ahead.
- tshaddox 5y agoThe link is a red herring. Just like an original Picasso, the content of the thing you own is responsible for very little of its value (an excellent forgery would deliver all the aesthetic value of the original, but it would be much less valuable). The provenance of the thing is the reason it is valued. There’s really nothing new or unique about NFTs other than the technology used to implement them.
