    NFTs were supposed to represent ownership of real-world objects - like a deed or a bill of sale does currently. The fact that they immediately became defined by stupid monkey JPEGs is a real shame.

      1,000 times this. We could have upended entire predatory industries but instead we got collectible animal pictures. Cool

      I feel like if stores like Lowe’s or Wal-Mart needed a distributed bill of sale they would use it.

      I imagine a board room where the idea is brought up and the board asks, “What’s wrong with our current system?” or “How much money will this make us?” Then the idea would be quickly shot down.

        I get what you’re saying, but it’s not really for boardrooms. It’s for communities. The community.

        It’s supposed to be the modern-day equivalent of rai stones.
