Challenges and risks associated with NFTs
The introduction of non-fungible tokens to the blockchain market has revolutionized the way in which digital assets can be utilized to increase the potential of blockchain technology. Non-fungible tokens are unique to each user, unlike other tokens which are generally fungible.
This means that tokens issued by a central authority can be exchanged for a fungible asset, usually a crypto-currency, in a transaction. The most popular use of a non-fungible token is a collectible, a digital asset that is unique to a user, and which can be collected and traded, similar to the way that physical collectibles are traded.
Non-Fungible tokens have made huge amounts of money in the digital world. There are plenty of digital assets sold online every day. It is even possible for a creator to earn millions in just a few seconds when their digital asset is sold in the digital space.
This shows that people are more enthusiastic when doing business in the digital universe rather than the physical universe.
But with advantages, there are several challenges and risks with the adoption of NFTs. Some of the key challenges are:
- Enforcing Proof Of Work Copyright: NFT technology proves ownership of copyrighted content, but not who created it. Currently enforcing copyright can be difficult for independent developers with limited financial resources. It is harder for IP owners with limited financial resources to enforce their copyright.
- The cumbersome process of auditing: While a non-fungible asset is a good investment for a collector, the process of verifying the authenticity of a token can be complex. Many collectors have been swindled into buying counterfeit items. If you need to verify the authenticity of a token, try to find a reputable third-party source that can do this for you. It’s especially important to verify the authenticity of a token before you purchase it.
- Complexity of Verification: A user requires auditing the blockchain in order to verify the NFT authenticity. The process is complex for non-technical users.
How to address these challenges and risks?
Currently a digital asset can be copied, minted as an NFT, and sold on the open market. Protecting & enforcing copyright is difficult for IP owners with limited financial resources. Since cryptocurrencies are so volatile, some counterfeit products will benefit from their implied trust. In fact there are a lot of retailers across the world who accept Bitcoin as a form of payment.
