They're very complicated but NFTs are non-fungible tokens which basically in the best way I can explain, are artwork that you can purchase and claim you own while other can still use it or something to that standard. Pretty much, NFTs rely on cryptocurrency that takes up a bunch of energy to make that it is detrimental to the health of the environment. It pretty much has no benefits to combat the gigantic downsides they have.

Think of it this way: NFTs are for buying the ability to SELL a product. Not to OWN a product.
Which means yes, the actual "product" itself is totally pointless. It's why you see so many crappy NFTs. I could literally go on MS paint, draw a smiley face, price it high and then it'll have value.
If you don't have proof that you have the rights to sell the ability to sell product (eg: You made it (in the ms paint situation) or you've bought it as an NFT) then you cannot sell the rights to sell it again.
That's why the "Right click - save image" meme (while funny asf) doesn't actually have an effect, because nobody cares about the product itself, only the rights to sell it from an official source.
So yes, there is literally zero point in NFTs other than money. Literally zero.
If you want the "product", just right click and save.
3 of the main reasons why NFTs are bad:
- Real artists get their work stolen, there has been a noticeable amount of cases from deviantart where artists have had their work copied as NFTs with no credit given.
- It is absurdly easy to get scammed.
- The crypto used is incredibly bad for the environment, and I mean really, really bad for it.
If I made any mistakes feel free to correct me, this is just how my brain understands them.

It's pretty much the digital version of the kid at elementary school lunch who says all of the bouncy balls are his and you need to give him your lunch if you want to use them

Imagine if hook camping earned you "camping coins", and you could pay camping coins to be "the official hook camper of Dwight's present outfit" and nobody else could be "the official hook camper of Dwight's present outfit" unless you sold that honor to them for camping coins. This would not effect Dwight's present outfit in any way.

Slight correction: NFTs are not the art itself, but a receipt of transaction. It's tantamount to the "I gave money to this charity" stickers that restaurants and chain stores will often give out when asking for a dollar at checkout.
