and whom do we hand the power to decide what is real and what isn't?

It sounds like we need some sort of distributed system of proving ownership of digital goods like a digital ledger that cannot be reproduced to prove authenticity.

If only something like that existed today this is a real world problem it could help with.

We could call them non fungible tokens or something silly like that, probably needs a better name though, I will think on it.

This isn't about ownership, but about authenticity.

The solution would be closer to certificate authorities used in https than any blockchain crap.
