this contradiction always confused me. either way the official company is “losing a sale” and not getting the money, right?

Nfts, digital tokens, already exist. Their use, in the protection of copyright, is called drm. “Nfts” bring nothing new to the table of digital rights or copyright… And a whole host of stupidity.

Again, all of this already existed and will continue to exist with or without blockchain. There is very little novel in the implementation details of the tokens. The people who got the idea for "nft"s didn’t come up with a new idea. This isn’t some new math. The only portion of NFTs that is new is the cooperative signing… Which again, isn’t a new concept either.

Right now, everything you described… Literally all of it… Ubisoft implements for their launcher and enforce with their drm solution.

Sorry. I apologize.

It’s frustrating trying to explain the same thing over and over again…

The tokens are how drm works. The process of DRM is token validation and enforcement of intellectual property rights granted by tokens.

I don’t know how else to explain it. It feels like I am back at my original post. I don’t know if you understand any better or if you still have misconceptions about what NFTs are or what DRM is or if you still think there is some magic in NFTs.
