The difference with COD skins being in-game vs on a blockchain is not only can you associate a universal identity to them (your wallet address), but anyone can see and trade for them anywhere. Maybe not the best example, but if you generalize to artwork/digital content it really makes sense.

Why would you need to trade your COD skin through a decentralized distributed network if that skin is only usable through a specific centralized game?
The use cases for CRYPTO and NFT are extremely small.
Its a solution that's been looking for a problem for over 10 years.

Agreed. I think the real use for NFT is tradable identities/roles, which grant access to digital or physical experiences that span organizations. Remains to be seen whether someone builds a killer app/experience around that. So far, people are only interested in mundane simulation of physical scarcity.

why would COD allow that to happen
