> NFT can't prove ownership of anything but itself
That's why the artist has to publicly attest which NFTs he approves
> There isn't even a uniqueness check
Even if there were, it wouldn't change anything, it's too easy to change one bit, or the metadata, and voilá, a new totally different digital asset that looks exactly the same to the naked eye
Again, none of these work without the artist approval of the NFT itself, that's the only thing that adds value to it
