Coming to think of it, putting “n/100” and the artist’s signature on a print, and then considering it more valuable, is not really a lot weirder than an #NFT

The closest way I’ve found to explain the weirdness of #NFT for art: They’re like a signed, numbered limited edition print, but the signature is not on the actual print, and not necessarily even by the artist

the exclusivity of NFTs only really comes to shine with all the future nft integrations. Skins in games like League of Legends or Fortnite are already a multi billion business. Generalized nft clothing for games might be a multi trillion business in the future.

Think of it as limited edition adidas shoes that you can only „wear“ in a game if you proof nft ownership. Of course there might be copies, but other players can easily see if the signature of that shoes you are wearing belongs to adidas

But who needs NFT/Blockchain for this? Since this is all about well known brands (whose authenticity/identity is established outside any blockchain), adidas could just sign proof of purchase with a single digital certificate. Why burn the planet?

Replying to @the_fruiture
True, a ton of simple digital signing use cases are now automatically (and often wrongly) addressed with blockchain tech
