>In most cases the creator of the NFT != the creator of the artwork.

You are describing counterfeit art and is easy to identify

That's like pointing out how many fake Gucci bags are out there and dismissing the real Gucci by saying "in most cases the creator of the Gucci bag is not Gucci."

I'm not solely describing "counterfeit" ( again, nft's are not legally protected, so counterfeit is not applicable ).

I'm also talking about hiring a low salary graphic designer to create some simple cartoon avatars and then wash trade it into popularity because of metrics on the platform.

Or just copying of-chain images to create an NFT.

Or copy an NFT and put them on another NFT market.

Or change a pixel and put it on the same NFT bazaar ( by definition of law= code, it is unique by hash)

You can't get a real Gucci bag on NFT. The comparison is false, since i can right-click save a perfect original. There is no copyright on NFT's.

Edit: valid response below and couldn't respond. But it's not correlated to the NFT itself ( not saying you are intuiting that, just mentioning)

Not to be pedantic, but, just because you can save and distribute something does not make the legal definition of copyright disappear.

Easy to identify? How do you know that the individual behind a digital signature is the individual they claim to be, unless you meet them in person and they give you some fingerprint (which happens 0% of the time)?

No need to meet them in person if they have a digital identity.
