    This specifically depends on the project producing the NFTs. Some grant full ownership while some do not.

      That’s his point - NFTs don’t actually solve any problem here, they just add an extra step.

        I fail to understand your point. What extra step? You either get ownership or you don’t based on the asset you’ve acquired. NFTs don’t have alto be a once size fits all kind of thing. You are just oversimplifying it. The same can work for physical objects that you purchase. Vehicle manufacturers make it to where you can’t service your own vehicle sometimes because of special tools needed… So do you really own it? Hmmmm

          I buy a picture from you, I get a receipt proving I bought it.

          I buy a picture from you on an NFT marketplace, I get an NFT proving I bought it.

          What value does an NFT provide in this case? I guess it provides a better proof of the purchase but that hardly seems worth the effort of setting up a wallet and acquiring crypto (for the average person at least). Not to mention the seller also needs to do these things, and I fail to see how he will benefit in this case.

          Maybe in a hypothetical world where everyone uses crypto this will make more sense.

            I’ll just use a small example… Let’s say you have an NFT for a online casino project. Simply holding the nft in your wallet will give you a weekly payout (certain percentage of profits for that week/month)

            I use this example because nfts can have many different uses. Another would be gated communities/gated access to online services. Hope that helps it make sense a little

              All the examples you give are things that can be done (and are done in practice) without NFTs, and you don’t really explain why using NFTs would be better.
