   @lain @TheRealClay @kev @moth @guizzy @Moon oil paintings are fancy textured 3d objects that can't be printed yet. would be fair comparison in a super 3d printing future, though, same then for whatever other objects could be printedcircumvent scarcity first before reintroducing it artificially

     @guizzy @Moon @TheRealClay @kev @moth i think the framing gives you the completely wrong impression. the Mona Lisa itself is an NFT! You can print out a million mona lisas on your laser printer at home, but that makes nobody say 'duh why are the idiots at the louvre putting this on display i can just buy a poster of it on amazon'.

     @lain @Moon @TheRealClay @kev @moth I mean, it is accurate in the way it describes it as a label that says "x person owns the Mona Lisa". It's just framed to make it sound as stupid as possible, glossing over the fact that, yeah, so's a deed to land, and few people would argue the value of that.

     @guizzy @Moon @TheRealClay @kev @moth domain names are NFTs. concert tickets are NFTs. signed and numbered prints are NFTs. The OP image description is firmly in the 'not even wrong' area as well.

     @guizzy @moth @TheRealClay @kev the original NFT analogy at the top of the thread is somewhat accurate I hate to admit.

     @Moon @TheRealClay @kev @moth Yeah, it's an uncharitable framing of an accurate understanding of it. There's plenty of examples of people willingly giving money to be associated with art they cannot physically have in their possession. And outside of art, there's also the possibility of unlocking something external to the blockchain with proof of NFT ownership.

     @moth @Moon @TheRealClay @kev Not Even Wrong is a turn of phrase used to refer to a take so utterly out there and misinformed it transcends right and wrong.

     @kev ???? This is an absolutely perfect description of #NFT ???? ????

     The analogy also perfectly applies to all #CryptoTokens

     #CryptoCoins all claim they represent some "value" that wasn't created out of thin air.

     Yet if you quiz a #CryptoCulter on this question, they end up claiming it was the "mining" that created the value,

     ...but mining has no value unless the Coins already have value, and so it's a "Circular Argument".

     The real reason BTC has value is "Because Brainwashing" period, full stop
