An NFT without a blockchain
> Without a published chain of transactions, there is no guarantee that the artist hasn't sold the same item multiple times.<p>> Without a verified on-chain transaction, there is a risk that either the buyer or the seller may be lying about the transaction price.<p>I mean, this is kind of the whole point - the published record on the chain is what actually matters. I don't like NFTs, but the anti-NFT crowd doesn't seem to get it and that is just as frustrating. People value status signaling tools. A lot. Image 99 of 1000 isn't a status signaling tool, showing you paid for the image is, the verifiable receipt is what matters.<p>This article is like suggesting the signature on art is what matters, but what matters is the actual provenance.
