    I owe 90% of my crypto success to this man.
    Edit to clarify: Andres has taught me a ton about Bitcoin, causing me to swing my port from 50% BTC to nearly 100% BTC in early 2020. Thanks for all the likes. 💪

      Agreed! Ran into his videos way back, and that allowed me to understand what I was getting into, and the pitfalls to avoid. Not your keys, not your coins! Left crypto on both the Cryptsy and Crytopia exchanges for too long. Hard lessons to learn.

    Ex. Jack Dorsey sold his first tweet for $2.9M USD. Whoever bought it, believes he/she has sole property over the tweet. The truth is that since the image can be copied and pasted, the owner only has rights over the code, only honesty can refrain Dorsey from reselling the tweet. Even though the code cannot be duplicated, Jack or tweeter can erase the tweet whenever they want and the NFT owner will only own an image since the original data will always belong to tweeter, proving that the ownership is only in their minds. The other case scenarios on this video are amazing!

    • @mattmcginley7
      @mattmcginley7 3 роки тому +2

      That's the problem with many current iterations of NFTs. Andreas makes it clear how they should be implemented and why they have value by having some level of uniqueness or functionality, but many are pretty useless right now
      I think that will change though. Good ones will pop up

    I’ve been sneering at NFTs. This is the first talk about them that broadened my mind to the possibilities 🤔
    The biggest takeaways I got were 1) they record unique instance transactions and 2) the standard set of functions can be extended for customized use cases.
    Hmmm more important than I thought. I thought it was just balloon dog sculpture.
    Thanks Andreas!

    Thank you. Great explanation. This seems to have value in tagged ownership. If I owned the Original Mona Lisa it could be marked with an NFT hidden on the back attesting to the fact it's the original Mona Lisa and I am the only person with ownership. Personalization of data, even better than copywriting programs, and identifying patents ownership. Maybe can be used to discover frauds and fakes. Interesting concept.

  • @mulimotola44
    @mulimotola44 3 роки тому +1

    If somebody creates another NFT using a copy of the "original" NFT, how would you be able to tell the difference and prove that the original is "truly" the original? If anyone can create NFTs, then how can there possibly be an ownership?
    With Bitcoin, the coins are generated from the blockchain itself, so that's how the double spend problem was solved. But NFTs seem to overlook the double spend problem.

  • @TurtleMarcus
    @TurtleMarcus 3 роки тому

    Mr. Antonopolous mentioned this elsewhere, but artwork NFT's are more similar to how aristocrats of yore would give great amounts of money to building churches and public monuments. Sure, the churches and statues and everything are open to the public and everyone can enjoy the artwork. But only the aristocrat gets the clout of being a patron and supporter of the arts. Artwork ownership was not always about depriving others from enjoying it. Just as Bitcoin, the "digital gold", brings back the older way of conceptualising peer-to-peer cash (i.e. I have gold, you have thing. I give you gold, you give me thing), so NFT's bring back this older way of understanding art ownership and patronage.

    This could be great for putting Real Estate Deeds, Vehicle Titles, Licensing into NFTs. Anyone see benefits to this? Opposed?

    • @TurtleMarcus
      @TurtleMarcus 3 роки тому

      It would be extremely difficult if not impossible to forge deeds and titles. And it would not require trust in a third party authority (i.e. government). And it would be much easier and quicker to transfer an NFT, than going down to the courthouse and signing a deed transfer. The downside is that such transfers usually have great tax implications and the government would very much like to know when, where, why and whose of all. This kind of defeats the purpose of the no-trust, private system.
