It is like any copy in the art world. A print is a lot less than the original. Why? Because it is not the original.

With digital art, it is a collectible so one wants to have something authentic. If a photo is just copied, then it has no value. Sure someone can use it as a screen saver but if the value of that piece doubles, the individual gets no benefit.

You mention cards from games, people acquire them without playing the game but for speculation purposes. I can just copy a splinterlands card and say I have one. Of course, it has no use in the game and has no value since, if I try to go sell it, I dont have the key.

Same premise with collectibles. Now what drives people to want something is all over the board. Personally, I dont think I would spend money on a photo of Shatner's acting memorabilia but I am sure there are hundreds of thousands who would. Of course, I never understood the Cabbage Patch craze but they went for a boatload of money.
