It's not even the picture, it's the promise you own a picture

And the picture itself is just a randomly generated picture of a money or a picture of Donald Trump photoshopped into something from the first page of Google images.

Holding an NFT can give you ownership of an image. If you have a bored ape NFT you own some legal rights to the image.

That's because of contract law, and IP law. A contract assigns the copyright to the holder of the NFT, and governments enforce legal contracts.

The only thing that gives NFTs any claim to value is the fact that a centralized authority can enforce it. The entire concept behind the decentralized leaderless authority of the blockchain is a myth.

Yeah you can own an NFT but you can own any image through a license agreement with the owner.

Yes... That's the point of my comment.
