No offense, but you are either being purposefully obtuse/ closed minded, or your are ignorant of how the underlying technology works. Look, like many, I thought it was silly at first too. But I think part of the problem is the way it’s been sold to us hasn’t been the best. But I think it’s important to think about why you are so aggressively opposed to this? > ”NFT's doesn't add any value to being able to trade pictures between profile process” I think this is incorrect. And I think ‘profile pictures’ & avatars and such will be the first ‘real’ application of NFT art. In a few years, most likely all the major social media platforms will integrate whatever the few most popular NFT chains are. Then your avatar badge can be whatever cool NFT art you own, and it will be able to be verified on the blockchain. So to your point that you linked to, there are 25 copies. That’s not 25 people owning the same NFT, that’s 25 different NFTs owned by different people. So if you aren’t one of those 25 people, you won’t be able use it as a ‘verified’ avatar on “some_social_media_platform”. Sure, anyone can copy and paste a picture and ‘steal’ it, but if you don’t control a token with that picture in it, then you don’t own it, not really sure why that concept is so hard? Yeah I can put up a print of the Mona Lisa is my living room, but I obviously don’t own the actual Mona Lisa. The same way I could copy and paste a picture of some very popular NFT art, like a CryptoPunk or something. But my copy can’t be verified on chain, and hence I would just be displaying a ‘fake’ on my profile. And everyone would know it. Who knows how this will be implemented, but some have suggested something similar to the ‘verified’ check mark for famous people. If you control a token, then Twitter or whoever can show some indication that is indeed verified, and not a copy.
