Was it even the rights, in a legal sense? I thought it was just a digital receipt of sorts that just links to the jpeg, which isn’t necessary the same thing as including control of the IP?
No, there’s no transfer of copyright ownership, it’s merely proof that you own the token on a given blockchain for that JPEG. You don’t get any additional rights to the JPEG vs anyone else, just the ownership of the token. So people can verify that you own the token, and that’s about it.
