The token (according to the ERC-721 standard) contains a URL to a hosted JSON which contains a URL to the hosted image. So to access the actual image you need to go through two different servers.
What happens if you drop your print in a puddle and it's destroyed, but you still have the proof of authenticity in your pocket? While the artist is alive, they'll probably replace it at cost. But after the artist is gone the certificate does nothing. (It still proves your status, like the NFT, but otherwise is worthless.)
This doesn’t solve the problem at all. Many of the NFT sites are hosting their own IPFS and many of the images have already gone missing from the IPFS because no one is hosting that file still.
couldn't anyone else start hosting that content on IPFS, and the URL would resole to it? Since it's content-based addressing? (I don't have a great understanding of IPFS, I could be totally wrong)
