When You Buy an NFT, You Don’t Completely Own It – Here’s Why

So it is all about owning the copyright? I need to look at my NFTs. I bought one on @nftshowroom and use it as my Twitter avatar and just received a free one yesterday on WAX. That puts my total NFTs (excluding my Splinterlands in-game assets) to a total of three (I have one of those golfers).

They mention the UK in the article, so I don't know if it's particular to that region.
There's a firm that sells plots of land on Mars as an NFT. I almost picked one up until I found out they cost $400 in ETH each! :)

How can they sell plots of land on Mars? Who did they buy the land from, Marvin the Martian?

Someone already sold off Moon plots decades ago. Maybe it's the same person who sells certificates saying that so-and-so "owns" some star ot other celestial body.

Yea, that star selling thing was around even before NFTs or blockchain... never really understood the point of that
Anyone can print a certificate and claim whatever star they feel like

Why spend tens of thousands of dollars or reales on a diamond ring when for maybe 100 dollars or reales you can buy the love of your life an entire star?

LOL it would be funny if someone who bought one of those NFTs goes up there in the future and tells Elon Musk to pack up his shit and get the fuck out of their property

Now that would be really funny! Guess Mars would start out like homesteading? Just make a claim on the property.

Heh I had no idea about that... good thing I don't collect art

Yea I am glad I am not one of those collectors so it doesn't apply to me.

As I expected, copyright laws definitely need to be updated. It's a huge mess since people can make anything into an NFT.
