Let’s consider the case that Alice is selling her digital contents to
Bob. Now, Bob resells it to Carol and the chain continues to Harry,
Frank, Grace etc. While Alice gets paid for the first time sale, she is
not getting benefitted in all these reselling deals. With this new
approach, Alice can create an NFT associating it with the digital
content, i.e., “This content is created by Alice on such and such date
and she is the original Issuer. Alice’s address on Ethereum is xxxx”.
A fraction of money would go to her on every reselling deal where
Alice is not directly involved.
If you are any kind of digital content creator, i.e., blogger, financial
advisor, scientist, movie star, author etc., you can create your own
NFT and sell your digital contents, even blogs, tweets etc., over the
Internet with the assurance that every time it’s resold, you can earn
money out of it. In education, NFT can be used in Research, PhD
paper presentation, Design, Architecture, Formulas etc.

we can set different criteria for NFT regulation, whereas the NFT
token can carry the information such as a unique id, Issuer, Issuance
date etc., as follows:
