gollark: If I actually cared about that for some bizarre reason, it would presumably be possible to just copy the NFT code and patch that out.
gollark: Surely if you want to duplicate it you could just... use the *same* seed, again...?
gollark: So I decided to look at the website on a device which could actually render the sculpture thing, and looking at the FAQ, this seems... odd...:> Each unique seed is stored immutably on the blockchain, and while seeds are case-sensitive, your seed (and therefore, your sculpture) cannot be duplicated by anyone.... *what* does case sensitivity have to do with anything? How can it "not be duplicated"?
gollark: There's this nice one I use for wallpapers: https://github.com/TomSmeets/FractalArt/
gollark: Calling NFTs a form of art themselves, and not the artistic thing they happen to be tied to, seems like calling the fiat currency you might buy artwork with also art.
