That's true. I've started coming around to that and thinking it's a lot like the art business, especially if you look at an artist like Andy Warhol who stamped out his works on something akin to an assembly line and left an estate estimated to worth $220 million. Art is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I guess NFTs are the latest manifestation of that world. Perhaps some like the margins of the art world and want to extend it with more features.
Edit: I get my knowledge of Andy Warhol from these three documentaries, which have some conflicting information but paint a picture of a man who wanted to make a lot of money.

The art business is a game for rich people. I don't think I'll bother with because I can't compete at that level due to lack of funds.
