      Exactly, it shows no ownership at all. It just means you purchased a digital replica to look at or listen too. It literally has no value other than someone else paid that much for it once before. However as an artist and being able to go through companies that mint the art and track the sales giving me a percentage of each sale is fantastic until the hype dies out. All it takes is one piece of your art making it into a rich collecting group where they fight over the rarest of the your minted works.

    • @jakestarr4718
      @jakestarr4718 2 роки тому +212

      But realize the hype is generated by these companies minting stuff... The hype never was "rich people" investing like a stock... They invested into it to create the hype... It will be a short lived thing like beanie babies as these companies can only sucker so many people to play the losing game of paying to mint art... Some parts of the market might stand through it because of sports using it like animated ball cards. Beyond that i don't really see much of a reason outside of collecting. Its a question of how many fans a specific nft market can keep, end of story.

      @@sonnykensenhuis8562 Kind of like that but if you own one of those for example some companies use ownership of one of their nft's as an exclusive membership card into a private group that hosts events with members only.

    • @concretenmyveins8403
      @concretenmyveins8403 2 роки тому +32

      Yes the value is only what people are willing to pay. I treat it kind of like comic or sports trading. So if it’s a drawing by an artist that I already collect in the tangible world. I find it amazing ( through nostalgia) that I own the first digital print of Spider-Man #1 or my Lebron James moment. I see more video games implementing NFTs into gameplay as well. When I play XBox and purchase a skin or certain weapon this is essentially an NFT . I can see game makers creating many items with rarity involved in the future. Then they will all set up secondary market places where players can buy, sell or trade these items. Imagine a COD market place where you could buy an item that gives you even a slight edge over your competitors… and this is just one example. it’s mind boggling how big NFTs will get. The NFT market is in it infancy stage kind of like Bitcoin in 2016 with implications to dwarf crypto in marketcap size and user adoption. Happy trading… 😊🚀

    One thing about NFTs that's rarely explained well is that NFT's are essentially a reciept of ownership. In other words, if you buy a jpeg as an NFT, you don't own that jpeg. What you own is a public receipt indicating ownership of the jpeg, and a link to that image. You own metadata. The image itself is NOT hosted on the blockchain. Because of this, while nobody can change the ledger indicating that you own the jpeg, somebody CAN change the image itself, or simply erase it. If the domain that's hosting the link goes offline, or if the owner of the domain changes the image, as the owner of the NFT, there's nothing you can do about it. Blockchain is impressive technology, but NFTs are a scam. Don't buy the hype.

    • @catisreckless4647

      @@catisreckless4647 well, listen to your hunch that perhaps you are ignorant.
      This guy is right that NFT's are a scam, but the method and technology for proof that you own "it" are sound, provided the blockchain itself is sound.
      In order for a transaction to be approved on the blockchain, the entire (or perhaps only a majority of 51%) need to approve it.
      Even if you manage to defraud one part of the system, the rest of it immediately recognizes the transaction as fraudulent.
      And when it is a cryptocurrency with hundreds of thousands of miners processing these transactions, you can't simply defraud the majority of them. The system is decentralized, making it impervious to fraud if it has proliferated enough.
      That said, the current cryptocurrency craze is a lot like the dot com bubble. People hyping up worthless domains as if they'll be the next big thing. Most crypto is that right now. And whatever blockchain your NFT works off of could be one of those trash coins nobody uses or could easily be hacked.

    I remember years ago walking through a museum in Italy. It had all sorts of artists that I had never heard of as well as some famous ones. Lots and lots of paintings. I decided after a while that I was only going to look at the artist's name of a work if it spoke to me. I walked past dozens of paintings and finally found one that really struck me.

    NFTs are just a way to use the Blockchain to say that you 'own' something.
    It's a complete novelty, especially since it doesn't really prevent whatever had been hashed into a token from being widely distributed regardless
    Just wait until people start making single pixel imperceptible color alterations and it's enough to generate a completely different hash
    (Edit)
    I'd like to correct myself, it's even worse than I thought, an nft is a packet of information that exists on the Blockchain as an entity that is owned by a wallet basically, but the packet is actually too small to store an image, so image NFTs are usually minted as links to a server that has the image, you're not even buying a hash of the image, or some data based on the image like I assumed, nothing about the image itself is stored on the chain, you're just buying a link to an image.
    Like holy fucking shit this is so bad, far dumber than I thought.

    I think another point worth mentioning is the impact NFTs are already having on independent artists.

      it is also a money syphoning con, designed to part money from fools who dont understand that. and think that like Jack Dorsey, they also can "make huge profits" from "investing" in it.

      i dont know what bitcoin will do..
      i just know its a con. it is ABSOLUTELY worthless and just an IMAGINARY, virtual computer image, even if it hits $100k per pixel, because fools keep pumping money into it.
      but once everyone realize this, it might collapse to zero that it deserves.

    To me, the main difference between NFTs and other non fungible things is an NFT have no real added value.
    You can look Mona Lisa on the internet. It's fungible, therefore it has very little value (in this case, none). Or you can pay a ticket to go see it an experience the real thing. Added value = more expensive. Or you coud buy it (if it was for sale), and then you could experience it every day. More added value = way more expensive.
    It's a pretty basic economic principle that people buying NFTs are forgetting. If it's more expensive, it's because it has more value. Sure, for a lot of things, it's 1) subjective and 2) there is a part of perceived value. But only a part. There is some real added value to possessing or experiencing the thing.
    Possessing Nyan Cat's NFT brings no more value than just watching it on the internet for free.
    That being said, people do whatever they want with their money. To me it's just foolish but hey 🤷‍♂️

      People don't buy valuable things like the Monalisa to experience it everyday. Even if they did, they'd have to spend more to secure it and make sure it's not stolen or damaged. They buy it for perceived value.
      NFTs have value because it's secure and verified. You can own an item for it's perceived value and not worry about someone stealing it.
      The part I'm unsure about is, these memes are floating. You don't know if people will care about Nyan cat in 20 years. Monalisa held value for 100s of years, we don't know what people will care about in 20 years.

    Do i understand that correctly, that if government (oř somebody) would want informations about every payment od every people, he needs to go to banks, ask for those informations etc, etc.. but if blockchain is used instead of banks, that government (or somebody), already have those informations, bcs blockchain is public? Therefore easier for predict your behaviour, center marketing around you etc?

    difference between an nft and the mona lisa is:
    1. the mona lisa doesnt have randomly chosen parts
    2. the mona lisa is a physical item

      Mona Lisa does have randomly chosen parts. The oil and canvas aren’t specifically chosen.
