    How is putting it on the blockchain advantageous versus a centralized server? Obviously the argument isn’t about reliability, so I just fail to get why they merit the significantly increased energy cost/ environmental damage.

      well the one advantage would be that you aren’t relying on some company to keep the servers running. I’m not a fan of NFTs, me struggling to come up with any uses for them should be a sign of that.

        I am relying on some company to keep the doors to the concert venue open, might as well depend on them to control the ticket too.
