NFTs without hype: tokens, licenses, and secondary risk
An NFT is usually a token pointing to metadata — not automatic copyright or real-world title. As of 16.10.2026.
Ownership claims
On-chain ownership of the token ≠ rights to commercial use of the art unless a license says so.
Fees and royalties
Marketplace fees, creator royalties, and gas change the economics. Secondary markets can go to zero.
Scam patterns
Fake mints, cloned collections, “support” DMs, and drainers. Verify collection contracts from primary sites.
Summary
Treat NFTs as speculative collectibles with legal and technical caveats.
