Wizards never had standees or clings for D20 Modern in the 2002-2007 era and I’m pretty sure it sold better than EDH.

The Canadian federal government has been missing payments, underpaying, and sometimes even overpaying staff for years. Just whisper "Phoenix" into a federal civil servant's ear and watch them run shrieking into the night.I can't imagine sticking around for a moment if they missed a pay period. I've ran a small non-profit and we never failed to make payroll. Not even close.
Dr Jack for a decentralized, self-verifying ledger I could see recording transactions that are public record being a good use case. Land transactions would be a good example.
robertsconley correct me if I’m wrong, but the NFT is separate and independent of the asset itself. In your example, owning the NFT of the pdf is separate from owning the pdf. Right?
I don’t mean to suggest some form of digital asset storage, is that a requirement? I mean simply a record of the transaction itself.I wouldn't want to use it for a land transaction, because I don't want my land hacked. Oh no my apes. To me, it would be like leaving the deed to your land in a safe on your porch that says "Deed to Land in Here," but it's got a REALLY GOOD lock on it.
Not only is the NFT separate from the rights of the asset, but many NFTs are for things the minter doesn't actually have the rights to at all in the first place. Someone could mint an NFT from my profile picture and I couldn't stop them. Many are not only not rights-granting, but infringing.

Edit: If there must be some digital asset associated with the record, I suppose you could turn the legal description into an NFT
Then, you could sell the legal description as if it had some value
Their silliness leaps off the page.Dune NFT for the win. Buying an NFT of a share in an art book doesn't actually give you ownership of the art in that book, whodathunkit?
I guess it wasn’t considering deeds/titles as the ledger itself. They are documents that establish ownership (and yes, they have built-in tools for transference) but I considered the ledger itself as something different.A deed is a ledger of ownership of a piece of land. Same for a car title, most come printed for blanks to write in the new owner if you sell it. So, in this case, imagine someone walking up to your house, breaking into the safe, forging your signature, and then filing for a new deed with the county. And then, poof, it's theirs. "Code is Law."

Looks like Netflix won.
Just to clarify, a deed isn't a ledger of ownership. It's a written instrument transferring interest, rights or title to a property. A deed is not legally significant by itself to claim ownership of a property, at least in New Jersey. You can forget a signature on a deed, but the deed means nothing until all the signatures have been legally acknowledged by a duly authorized officer of the court and recorded by a country clerk.A deed is a ledger of ownership of a piece of land.

There is also no "poof" moment where the forger just gets to have the property because they submitted a phony deed. Even if a clerk erroneously accepted it, a defective title on a property can be thrown out. If you could steal houses by stealing a slip of paper, we would see a lot more of it. Land ownership is one thing society does not screw around with.
Yes, that is how most are set up. But understand you can shove anything into the data portion. A proof of ownership version would store a hash of the original file, its digital fingerprint, so to speak, rather than the text link to a URL. You watermark the PDF before handing it to the customer so every PDF sold would have a unique hash as they are all slightly different.robertsconley correct me if I’m wrong, but the NFT is separate and independent of the asset itself.

Unless there is a legal framework. There are many examples of fraudulent deed transfers, all fees properly paid and recorded, that were later contested. For example, scammers target an infrequently visited vacation property.In real life, you can sue someone who files faulty deed paperwork. With a decentralized system of software validation, there is no higher authority to appeal to.
I would think he was the one betting on himself.Was anybody betting on Tech-bro Skeletor?
Four years later and the (former) owner still hasn't gotten the house back that was fraudulently sold out from under them. A lot of jurisdictions use a variant of the Torrens system, where the registered owner is the owner full stop. If person A fraudulently registered a transfer to themselves then the owner can get it back from them, but if person A then sold to person B and person B didn't have any knowledge of the fraudulent transfer then person B owns the property and the now-former owner's only recourse is to go after person A. The benefit of this system is there's no need for complicated paper trails - just go to a registry, check the last name listed, and away you go.Unless there is a legal framework.
