# C. Technology and Ownership

The current NFT technology is to upload one's own work (images, etc.) to the server, then minting it to produce NFT, record the link value and proof of ownership in the metadata in the token, and prevent tampering and prove ownership through the distributed ledger of the blockchain network.

However, in the NFT market, even simple technologies such as watermark and download prevention are not applied to protect works, and users who have purchased NFT can't know the ID and PW information that can be downloaded and deleted by the original creator on the cloud server. In the end, there is only a distributed ledger that only the ownership has been transferred to the buyer, and the actual operation and management of the work can be done only by the original creator.

For this reason, in order to implement a true NFT, the distributed ledger that records the original work and proof of ownership in the NFT must be recorded in the metadata together. However, if the original is large, it is difficult to store the original and the ownership record together because it is difficult for all nodes participating in the network for the current internet speed and decentralization of the blockchain.

In addition, as each country has different laws such as patents and licenses for proof of ownership made by NFT, the possibility of legal disputes is very high.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://en-docs.mintway.io/the-company/.-business-background/3.-problems-in-the-nft-market/c.-technology-and-ownership.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
