Gap is the latest retailer to launch an NFT collection, which includes $415 tokens that come with a physical hoodie. If you remember yesterday’s email, Wikipedia’s editors were trying to decide if an NFT is “art” or a “token representing the art.” Is the Gap NFT a hoodie or a token that will get you access to an actual hoodie? See, this is not a hard question at all. (Hint: You can’t wear an NFT.)
