I can't tell if you're being facetious, but Jesus what a terrible idea. What if you lose your private key and lose access to the NFT? Can you not use the graphics card? Or can you not sell it? What if NVidia goes out of business someday in the future and the card gets bricked because they stop maintaining the chain that held all the NFT's of the graphics cards?

Peesumably if Nvidia went out of business then eBay would just stop enforcing having it.

But otherwise there's no advantage compared to a traditional database that I can see...
