@hacks4pancakes While I’ll admit that I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer, I am not the dullest. I have read a bit about NFTs, and I never quite get how the risks outweigh the benefits.
@WuMargaret @hacks4pancakes NFT’s were a good example of how to use blockchains to manage property and ownership and transfer records, but the things that were being traded were worthless.
I’d like to see this tech used for land title records and maybe vehicle ownership records…. Internationally it could be used for boats/ships, or maybe even shipping containers to manage the movement of products on the global stage.
It was a bad demonstration of how the tech could be used.

How do we get the parcel of land into a blockchain though? Or the vehicle?
@pikesley @WuMargaret @hacks4pancakes The same way it’s done today - put the signed and authorized document on the blockchain, digitally signed with keys that are linked to someone’s identity.
@JustinDerrick @WuMargaret @hacks4pancakes
Ok but how do I know for sure that that blockchain token refers to that physical item?
