    It seems it's not that hard to create fakes that even experts cannot distinguish. See "Made You Look" documentary on Netflix.

    An authentic painting is one the painter touched. An NFT? He never touched it. I just don't see the attraction.

    hahaha, that was a hilarious read. Thank you for taking the time to write something funny while also explaining.

    I watched this documentary on Netflix called Made You Look. There was a painting in it that sold for crap ton of money - it was literally two rectangles (not perfect rectangles, but close enough. And no, I am not making this up) in different colors. I paused the video and looked at it for a couple of minutes and thought, my 7 year old niece can draw this. What is special about this painting?

    So yeah, I guess I am a simpleton who can't understand art ...
