‘ This means that the only way to verify an NFT is created by the original creator is to trace it back to the original creator.’ - How do you trace it back to the original creator? What does this trace look like? Is this a natural world trace or a blockchain trace? If blockchain, Is there a unique signature based on the pixel values of the jpeg that is hashed in some way and that hash is associated with the tokenID? If real world, that’s such a tough ask

I have gone through it. Is there a way nfts can be masked as FT? Basically , creating a currency nft(Naira with different denominations) that can be minted severally? I realise this might just be running in circles of what should be a stable cryptocurrency straight up.
