Photography on the Bitcoin Blockchain has the potential to be huge, we just need to harness and embrace it.

I guess you could timestamp it, sure, or use some ordinals horseshit to represent ownership , but it is impractical and costly to store the raw photos or even the compressed formats on bitcoin's block chain in any meaningful size.

Haha, yes the original size is a problem especially with RAW files as you say. Maintaining the quality is key which means large files but costly yes! Is there anyway around this I wonder 🧐

Maybe NFT the hash of the RAW with ordinals horseshit. Distribute the RAW via some other way that doesn't impractically pollute a blockchain.

Interesting, thanks for the advice 😇

Tokenizing the hash is how this stuff is destined to go. Treat the RAW like a painting that the owner is responsible for maintaining, and treat the hashed token like the provenance documentation. Storing images on a blockchain is an idea created by retards who think defacement of public commons is "art". They are likely just sociopaths who don't think other people and their use cases of a block chain are real.
