Art and demand for authenticity existed long before fiat money and even the Bank of England. I am sorry, i think you have no point here.
And people believed that Earth is flat for even longer. Just the fact that some idea was/is popular for a long time doesn't mean it's true or has actual value. As art and ownership become digital concepts this value understanding will also change. What NFT proponents do is trying to bring old concepts into the new paradigm, only to profit off of those who don't understand why it's impossible.

Why you brought this whole thread about memes? By the way, there are plenty of cases when Bitcoin community lost meme battle. This is just self-assuring mantra that bitcoin culture is relevant in global scale.

No, it doesn't. Methods of mass-production that many artists pioneered for broader accessibility didn't change views on master pieces.

Because it's very relevant. NFTs are "bananas on blockchain".

Doesn't apply to any NFTs. Only a fiat grifter would call these monkeys and other cheaply generated trash a master piece. And AI is gonna redefine art as well, it already does that. Why do all NFT prices go to zero in any terms? Is that art become less artistic or what? lol.
