Owning an NFT is analogous to owning a receipt. You don't actually own the image and paying for one means you fell for a scam. Pointing that out is enough to piss off any NFT owners.

I actually like the idea of using them as nothing more than fancy receipts. They could be used to disintermediate creators and fans, with the right platform and technology combo.

I agree. An idea that I liked was that NFTs can be used to transfer items from one game to the next. Like a rare gun in COD can be transferred into Skyrim where it is a rare armor or something.

Don't worry, you are in a technical place here on Lemmy and we where all shocked how many fell for that bs, feel free to rant cuz you won't find many crypto bros here! ;)
