The paper linked is also worth reading:

It builds on the foundational concept of informational self-determination, and highlights well the various schisms involved. Therefore, I remain also a little skeptical about the NFT/blockchain/etc. solutions at a non-technical level.

Data ownership as a redistributive element is very appealing I must say

> Data ownership as a redistributive element

Of course, and especially regarding non-personal data, but with personal data you always have the fundamental issues discussed in the paper. At a technical level, for instance, you have the issues with the right to erasure, the right to correction, and some other rights; I haven't followed the blockchain space close enough to know where the state-of-the-art is.
