re: 13-second Zion Williamson highlight sold for $100k : 'This is the future':

there are serial numbers attached to the highlights making them scarce and rarer depending on the number

for example, if there are 500 clips and you had 1/500 it would be worth more. if it was lebron James and you had 23/500 it would be worth more (bc the jersey number is attached to your serial number)

just the fact that there are only 500 of the digital asset also makes it rare in of itself

But why would anyone care about a digital serial number when anyone can still get the highlight for free?

It's not like it's a physical object that has real scarcity so I don't see how it holds any value to a collector.

Like anyone can download a copy of a digital book. It holds no real value. However if you own a copy of a particular book that had a low run and has been out of print for 30 years it would hold value to a collector.
