Someone else has probably done this bit but I don't care
Nope. They're all publicly accessible.
It's just a money laundering scheme. Fine art money laundering but online.
Yea it’s literally just so some rich idiot can be like “I own that”, at least that’s the stated idea.
Which is on its face kinda silly, I’ve seen some funny ways people have played mental gymnastics to reconcile that.
Like the blender guru YouTuber kind had a vid about it and his case was, it’s just like owning the Mona Lisa, or other fine art, bc “technically” you can see it online anywhere but only one person actually own it.
No that’s the batshit thing. The artists retain full Copyright snd control
all you get is a token that is verifiable through the blockchain that you spent money on “owning” that token associated with the art.
Uncritical support for our artist comrades in their struggle to grift rich idiots out of their blood money.
Wish it didn’t require the blockchain bc of the environmental implications but I do love it when dumbass rich ppl waste their money lol
Yep, rich fucks like Epstein act as arts patrons so they can own something with arbitrary value requiring minimal capital outlay, which they then sell to each other at outrageous prices (Epstein had some other reasons for keeping young female artists dependent on him, as you can imagine). They pay for each other's art with dark money, so that everyone can show that all their fortunes came from selling art.
Doing it online with jpegs is the same thing, but with less work.
