Now he has the opportunity to sell the rights to this video (over a decade after it came out and jokes made about him) and... it wrong? Maybe I'm misunderstanding something here, I'll admit that.

Nemu 05/23/21 8:56:55 AM #20:	I still cannot wrap my head around the concept of these having any particular value. It's not actually a unique piece of media like an original painting. The Youtube video is the only thing that could even be called that, but that's literally being wiped out as a means of giving it value.

Copyright Trademark If you understand them youd get it Even if those rights are included with and transferred with the purchase, they're limited time value and only worth anything if the product is worth anything (which generally is not the case with memes at least). Short term selling, it can likely add value, but it's certainly something that is not going to constantly increase in value. This seems to be a market that has value only because a bunch of rich people have decided it has value and have bought into it.

You can buy a replica of the Mona Lisa for a few hundred dollars, or just print it from your printer yourself, but there's only 1 real copy in the world. It's really stupid because it's just a digital code saying you own the thing. I genuinely dont get the appeal of buying literally nothing, which is what nfts basically are. At least if I buy a useless 1'1' plot of land in Scotland, I can put 'Lord' in my title. And that only costs like $40. --- Haven't had a good sig idea since 2006 <cite>DarkBuster22904 posted [p:954213337] in Charlie bi...

Take a single example from his post: Star Wars Kid: the fat teen who did a really bad lightsaber choreography thing in his garage; how much money do you think he made off that video? Next to none, yet others get to freely share it and make fun of him. Now he has the opportunity to sell the rights to this video (over a decade after it came out and jokes made about him) and... it wrong? Maybe I'm misunderstanding something here, I'll admit that. However why should these people not get paid for being humiliated on multiple platforms? Seems like common sense to me. They can now sell their (humiliating) brand. The guy who uploaded Star Wars Kid was not actually the Star Wars Kid, so he still wouldn't get any money. Didn't he get invited to a bunch of talk shows at the time? And my problem isn't with them (Charlies parents) profiting, my problem is with it being removed suddenly. This time there is a warning but that won't always be the case. Nemu posted... I still cannot wrap my head around the concept of these having any particular value. It's not actually a unique piece of media like an original painting. The Youtube video is the only thing that could even be called that, but that's literally being wiped out as a means of giving it value. All the other copies are just as valid and will still propagate. How does this accrue any actual value? Will we reach a point where we have NFT lawyers that go around the internet trying to use legal pressure to scrub it from the internet? Is it all just a fancy money laundering scheme? That's what I'm afraid of too. Imagine suddenly getting a Cease And Desist for an old Facebook post that has a meme that someone happened to NFT. Rathinor posted... NFTs won't inherently give you trademark and copyrights People who buy this Charlie video won't be able to make a "Charlie bit me" website and make money off selling merchandise Why not? They'll own the original. I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm actually trying to learn here. Maybe I'm getting to old and out of touch here, but I don't see why anyone would want these, and I dislike the thought of something being free suddenly being owned without warning which could cause others to get in trouble or no longer able to enjoy the thing. --- https://www.twitch.tv/mattthehat I stream Beat Saber Monday-Friday at midnight PST!
