Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs)

"nfts are just database entries" yes, exactly nfts are open and tradable data that's the power. jpegs are just one (very) early UI on top of it

I find NFTs that evolve as you progress towards a goal more interesting because they tap on one's hard work & skill, vs one's wealth / being early at a drop. Similar to how in WoW expensive transmogs gave you clout, but the real clout was in hard achievements

Unlike visual nfts which naturally had a surface area on which to flex ownership (Twitter & particularly the profile pic), other categories of NFTs don't naturally have a space for showcasing ownership. Music NFTs, fashion NFTs, writing NFTs all need new consumption experiences.
