Blockchain, Crypto, NFT

Opinion

Blockchain

  • Distributed Immutable Ledger
  • could be used to create a trustless system
  • energy inefficient - uses too much energy for recording trivial transactions. Inefficiency is the price for not having a trusted central authority.

Crypto Currency

  • tokens issued for finding the next hash of the blockchain.
  • bad investment - they are not assets as they do not produce anything. their price is based on people's perception.

Non Fungible Token (NFT)

  • establishes ownership of a digital item on blockchain
  • no legal status of ownership
  • without legal status, the ownership cannot be enforced hence price is speculatively based on people's perception.

Can I sell the same NFT on different platforms?
