      Hello Ian, thanks for the content! I can think of a potential danger (don't get me wrong, I love NFTs!):
      **What happens if the plataform (ie. NBA Top Shot) ceases to exist?**
      I know the NFT lives forever on the blockchain, but in the end, without the plataform, it's a bunch of code, right?
      I mean you would still be the owner of that, but I guess it would be worthless if there is no plataform to display it!
      This is my biggest concern, despite how bullish I am on the technology.
      Let me know what you think! Thanks very much.

      I'd only deal with NFTs if I were creating them from scratch and selling them. That way I'd be able to profit only, but people would unlikely have a reason to buy any NFT I launch and the procedure to create your own NFTs is quite fishy to say the least, it's not like you can just "do it yourself" and be paid with bitcoin. You need to use those weird sites and weird crypto currencies to get paid instead. Too much hassle for a dumb Gen X person like me. 😁

      I checked some of those sites and if you create digital art and such, it has to be unique, not duplicated, not sold anywhere else, only posted on their site. There are a lot of restrictive rules, which I suppose makes sense, but then I could create something, never be allowed to share it on social media and have no guarantee of making money from it. At least, as NOT an NFT, it I make no money, I can share it with as many people, I want, wherever I want, as many times I want.

    Video game skins have value because they are rare and aren’t easily added to one’s inventory or account. Nfts can be downloaded and screen shotted. If you show off said nft someone can screen shot it or download it or screen record it or whatever. Even if you make it so the app detects when you are trying to screen shot it, people would find ways to still do it. This is the equivalent of selling a piece of paper that says literally anything on it for thousands of dollars.

When one of those record is changed (let's say someone transfers 10 euros to another person), all units in the blockchain will check the math and details behind this transactions. The caculation itself might be small, but the amount of times it is computed makes it MUCH more intensive than a similar computation outside of a blockchain. NFTs make use of such blockchains and have actually quadrupled the amount of energy used by the ethereum blockchain they use. A single transaction is estimated to cost about 90 kWh, which is similar to the energy consumption of an average US household over 3 days. I am in no way an expert in this field but this is my take-away after reading up on some papers. but please, don't just blindly believe me and do some research for yourself (which is something I'd advice on any subject :) ).

    2:24 My service is to provide more trust for not only the digital assets but physical as well. You do have to have checks and balances with some human interjection. However, code is law. I would think more professionals would enter the realm of blockchain to understand it. However, digital art is still surface level to the public with NFTs.

    I saw a nostalgic video by Izzzyzzz, where she was talking about "Unconverted Neopets," & those sound a lot like what you're telling me an NTF is.
    That & unique prize mount & weapon skins in MMOs. But unlike those things, NFTs risk becoming worthless after purchase if you can't find someone to pay more for it than what you did, while the other things I talked about will never devalue as long as the game server is still online, making NFTs a huge gamble.

    Hi Ian,
    First of all, it's great you're making this kind of content. There's too little awareness around the dangers of NFTs. Even though being scammed is a quick way to learn!
    But, we were just wondering at the office whether you actually understand what an NFT is? Maybe you just misspoke yourself, but the NFT is the smart contract. The smart contract contains a link to the actual image or video or whatever you're trying to sell. All that stuff you think you're buying is not actually on the blockchain. It's just the link you're usually buying with then the ownership. Besides, you should not associate royalties to a hacker. Royalties (like 10% of every sale goes to the artist) are just a way to give back to the creator. It's something that you should embrace and actually admire in the NFT.
    However, you are correct that you should be aware of what you're buying. You should actually know what's in the smart contract. You should check the link that refers to the image, because you're pretty vulnerable to scams.
    Maybe have a different video that's

    This lawyer is wrong in his understanding of what an NFT is.

    You're buying a token, not the artwork itself or the image embedded.
    You literally cannot sell someone a URL which is publicly hosted and accessible to anyone on the internet, anyone can share or access that URL and there's no laws which would stop them so long as that image is not illegal material.
