- nkrisc 5y agoIf that’s true, then it leaves me even more confused than before.
- snarf21 5y agoNo, because it is a fake scarcity scam. People are selling art they don't even own. It is all a pump and dump scheme.
- bodge5000 5y agoSame here, I only found out about it last night. I thought the whole point is that your buying something totally unique, apparently not
- rhn_mk1 5y agoYou are buying something unique, but what you're buying is not art. Instead it's more like... a receipt? A signed copy?
- throwaway744678 5y agoA certificate of ownership.
- rhn_mk1 5y agoThat's my point though - it's not ownership of the artwork. It has no legal power, and multiple can exist, made by anyone. Ownership of what then? Of a receipt or a signature.
- bodge5000 5y agoI mean the hash is unique, but the piece of artwork that hash is associated with isnt. I'm not even saying something like "the artwork is all boring its not unique" or anything, or that someone could copy I it, I mean the seller is literally selling multiple of the exact same artwork. But if the recipient being unique is all that matters, why have artwork associated with it at all? That's basically just a weird online packaging/box art at that point.
