A beanie baby did exist yet probably cost $1 to make, completely useless with virtually no intrinsic value, and sold for thousands…pretty valid comparison.
You can have a duplicate made for a few bucks. Not free but when the difference is $1 to $1000 or $0 to $1000, no one wants your beanie baby just as much as no one wants your nft monkey picture.
Both can be authenticated to say you own the only blockchain backed copy of an nft or a rare beanie baby. Almost no one cares about either.

But can you click ‘save as’ on a beanie and have an identical copy for free?
