A: Try to have a joke ready this time.
B: Nevermind that — we’re really close to actually talking about NFTs. The last piece to understand is “on-chain” and “off-chain” transactions in blockchain.

A: The kind of wrong that could wind up costing someone ridiculous sums of money?
B: I can’t think of a single scenario where that could happen, so probably yes.
