As long as this stays stable, there are going to be companies now that are going to create physical ways of displaying your digital collections. I'm saying, anyone can put that carcoat on their art, which, there you go, his oswaat. But how do you know which one is the original mona lisa? You just have this, just know, like you just know. And maybe that's a way to consider building on it. i doubt this is going to be a tomorrow thing, but that's not a really fun thing to ponder.

NFTs (non-fungible tokens) have likely been taking over your news feed in the last few weeks, as they certainly have ours.
