Ah, so in some cases you’re able to stuff an entire JPEG into the blockchain itself, I’ll grant that. In which case we move on to all the other problems. But For NFTs that are meant to be used in applications, I think my argument still holds.

For fully disembodied NFTs where you just stuff a jpeg or it’s hash into a blockchain, my other complaint is that you’re just creating a speculative instrument that doesn’t really do anything except hope someone else will pay more for it. And I still have to rely on trust outside the blockchain that the artist approved these NFTs in the first place (there are many done with unauthorized art)
