Ólafur Waage on Nostr: If you make a UUID of a real diamond and the diamond itself gets destroyed in a fire ...
If you make a UUID of a real diamond and the diamond itself gets destroyed in a fire tomorrow, you still have the same asset.
Because the UUID still exists and is in limited supply just as before. Nothing has changed.
What UUID is doing to the concept of asset, few understand.
