    NFT’s expand digital property rights and allow direct ownership of digital assets in ways that, for example, buying a game on steam doesn’t. That being said, why people wanted to have direct digital ownership of a 2D image of a monkey in various clothing… that’s where I got lost. I can easily understand buying like… a text book, or a video game, music, your copy of microsoft office as an NFT, y’know, things that would actually have a re-sale value to it? But why the fuck would you want a monkey picture?
