It's a fair point, and I felt that way at first, too. The longer I've been in this space, I've come to realize I don't always appreciate why some things can be useful at first. And there's a lot of noise and scams and the signal gets lost in all that. NFTs are especially difficult to appreciate because of all the noise, like Bored Apes.
We figure digital provenance for fine art (phygital art is one thing we do) is good low-hanging fruit, but we'll also be expanding the use case to cover proof of purchase to have a trustless, permissionless record of any kind of trade. The dream is to inexpensively provide atomic receipts for multiple thousands of digital transactions that can compress into a single on-chain attestation that's virtually indistinguishable from any ordinary P2TR spend. This then leads us to a world where Bitcoin is not just able to replace all money, but all forms of value settlement, and it's censorship-resistant, so it can break down barriers to trade. This is essential for diffusing wealth all around the world, which will alleviate poverty on a global scale.
And maybe we can obviate the perception of necessity for governments to keep a public record of private property so state-sponsored threat of force can be used to secure it. If there are disputes and there is violence, it helps to have evidence as to who is in the right and who is in the wrong, regardless of whether governments and their laws are involved.
Anyway, all this is also a good reason to develop Carbonado, which is quite valuable in its own right. We use it to store contract data, and will be using it for media content soon, too. https://carbonado.io
