Read the first 7 NFTs, Tokenization, and Digital Assets flashcards as text
What is the primary legal challenge when an NFT represents ownership of a physical asset like real estate?
Answer: On-chain ownership must still be reconciled with off-chain legal title systems
NFTs representing physical assets face a bridging problem: blockchain ownership records are not automatically recognized by traditional legal title systems, requiring off-chain legal agreements.
Which ERC standard introduced a semi-fungible token that can behave as both fungible and non-fungible depending on context?
Answer: ERC-1155
ERC-1155 is a multi-token standard that supports both fungible and non-fungible tokens within a single contract, enabling batch transfers and hybrid asset types.
A collector purchases an NFT of a digital artwork. What does the collector typically NOT receive by default?
Answer: Copyright or intellectual property rights to the underlying artwork
NFT ownership transfers the token itself but not the underlying copyright unless explicitly assigned in a separate legal agreement.
In the context of real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, what does 'fractionalization' primarily enable?
Answer: Dividing ownership of a high-value asset into smaller, tradeable units
Fractionalization allows a single high-value asset, such as commercial real estate or fine art, to be divided into many tokens so more investors can participate.
What is 'NFT wash trading' and why is it a concern?
Answer: Buying and selling an NFT between related wallets to artificially inflate its price history
Wash trading involves coordinated self-dealing transactions to create a false appearance of demand and price appreciation, misleading genuine buyers.
Which storage approach poses the greatest long-term risk to NFT metadata integrity?
Answer: Storing metadata on a centralized server referenced by a mutable URL
A mutable URL pointing to a centralized server can change or go offline, causing the NFT to point to missing or altered content—commonly called 'rug pulling' the metadata.
When a DAO votes to tokenize its treasury assets, which governance risk is most directly introduced?
Answer: Large token holders can collude to approve self-serving asset valuations
Tokenizing treasury assets within a DAO can enable majority token holders to manipulate valuations or asset transfers for personal benefit, a form of plutocratic governance risk.
