Sure, if I was foolish enough to do things with a key that could easily linked back to my real identity, and if the buyer was careful enough to check if my reprinted NFT was the "real" one. Would it be accurate to say that, from another perspective, the counterfeit NFTs I issued would stay on the blockchain in perpetuity, with no on-chain indications (aside, of course, from timestamp and key) of their fraudulent nature, and that they could be resold over and over to defraud additional careless buyers? Is there some sort of registry of fake/fraudulent NFTs or is it all caveat emptor, hope you read the right blogs?

What I'm particularly interested in here is stuff that proposes to use NFTs as avatars or something similar - if I go mint my own counterfeit ape and make it my avatar, are those apps going to happily display that I have "verified ownership" of it? Is there any recourse there aside from every app locking down to an explicitly allowed list of keys from "verified NFT producers," or every app playing whack-a-mole with the keys of known bad actors, or establishing some sort of off-chain database of content hashes and the keys that are supposed to own them?
