Well the point of NFT or art gallery is about that. It's a bet on something that make you feel in a way and you collect it for that feeling. May it be for keeping it or to wait and see if others see something in it and you can sell for a higher price. I was thinking about Lucio Fontana famous cuts on the canvas. What people did think of it at the time? Many do still now but for some and for him they were more than that, cuts on a canvas.
I appreciate your post and yeah now it's a wild wild west the NFT sphere but imagine it like a place for artist to share and get finally the chanche of maybe not dying poor as almost has been the case in history.
