@heyOnuoha Nice thread Favor. My understanding is that you can't own an NFT. You can own the piece of information that points to a place on the internet that might or might not host your NFT ie. and image. Is that true?

@akoskm Yes, but technically, as long as it points to your wallet and it unique on whatever community or network you’re using, it belongs to you

@heyOnuoha this is really helpful thanks for the info!
