If NFTs have any value it's in making a mockery of the concept of ownership.

@Noelle808

I am trying to make sense of what NFTs are

forbes.com/advisor/investing/n

suggests it is way to own digital assets,

If I take a photo I own it anyway surely only it seems this is a way to digitally like that photo to me, to prove ownership, this is done digitally.

Other than that,I am guessing there are ways to stop someone just copying that digital asset and removing the digital signature.

So if I have copyright / ownership of what I create, what is the advantage of an NFT, other than it just sounds like technobabble.

I can sell a digital image normally anyway. This has happened for years, you can buy music as mp3 format pay - download.

@zleap @Noelle808 its just art collecting basically. Rich people buy paintings, they are "assets". It is an image you can prove you have ownership of, but let's say you have some famous painting there can still be 100s of prints you can buy and put on the wall, but you have the original and you could sell the original for a shit load. I dont have a desire to own an not but thats the idea.
