As an artist I don't like NFT concept at all.
This is just another gaming "UX" (cards, skins, features) for kids created from scammers.
The digital realm has a function - to be connected to reality, to enhance and give communication channels.
Yes, someone within "NFT Realm" will "get lucky" and capitalize, but this applies to almost anything.
I invest in a different art future, the old one.
Where genuine skills and materials create uniqueness for ultimate value - for the real world.
- Tenoke 5y ago>This is just another gaming "UX" (cards, skins, features) for kids created from scammers. As far as I can tell every one I see talking about or collecting NFTs are adults. I doubt you are looking at them honestly if you think they were designed to take money from kids. NFT art could be bad or good regardless but you seem motivated by your ties to the 'old way' based on your comment.

- nerdponx 5y agoBecause none of this is inherent to NFTs. It's just a way to encode on a blockchain that I own something you made. All this other stuff is just weirdness borne of weird people being weird during a weird time.
- sumeno 5y agoIt’s important to note that the “thing” you “own” is the receipt, not the art. The NFT is not the art and doesn’t contain the art, it’s (in the vast majority of cases) just a link to the art. You have no ownership or claim to the art itself.
- nerdponx 5y agoI think that's a bit reductionist, in the same sense that you don't "own" land just because you only hold the deed. Unlike some things in the cryptocurrency world, NFTs are not meant to replace the legal system and property rights.
- sumeno 5y agoThe deed is backed by an actual legal contract and enforced by the government. An NFT transfers no legal authority or rights to the thing it points to. The only thing you own is the NFT which is some JSON and a URL. You don’t own what is at the URL.
