have you heard of Hirst's "The Currency"? i suspect that most buyers will choose to burn the physical copy. collectible art is moving to the digital era, and certificates are the scarcity mechanism.

> The way The Currency works is that collectors will not be buying the physical artwork immediately. Instead, they will pay $2,000 for the NFT and then have a year to decide whether they want the digital or the physical version. Once the collector selects one, the other will be destroyed.
