probably a stupid question but is it worth the hassle just for a webp image unless it is to piss of a company or a person then i see a reason why

    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.
