The NFT Dilemma

Consider this: the person is building a POS system on web3, and thinks of dispatching an NFT that links to a physical object and sell to to the customer. Now, consider this:

The customer buys the apple to eat. The salesperson dispatches the NFT to the customer. The customer went home and eat the apple. How do we burn the NFT away without the customer doing it manually? Do we control the camera at the customers' home so it can spy on whether the apple is eaten or not? Or perhaps you inject a chip at the center of the apple, such that it detects bites from the owner, damaging the chip (yes, human eating silicon) and rendered the NFT "burned"?

Solution

Well, the person building the POS system is getting too greedy and wants to link everything they have to the internet. Untimately, the person forgot that the importance isn't in the NFT but the physical apple. Hence, by not getting too hyped on NFT, you don't dispatch an NFT, then you can get the apple to work well.

Other physical objects that could last longer could get linked to an NFT. But of course, chips probably won't be able to detect the conditions of such objects (at least most object, unless the object is devices like computers or smartphones, etc that could interact with the chip). So how do you know if the tyre is in good state or broken state without having to change it manually? I don't know.

Just to say, don't get too hyped out. Really, most people don't even care about collecting receipts after they bought something. Some even asks the cashier to keep the change. These people may be one of us. Only the nft lovers probably would prefer otherwise.

So, remember what goals you're trying to solve at first, than try to getting too hyped.
