It has to be changed in a number of ways, I guess Block chain decides

# Huh?
If you change the hue of one pixel, you must get a new unique hash code, right?

# Possibly
But I've read it can tell if an image violates copyright laws of any image it's already processed therefore keeping the tokens unique

Let's say I'm a single pixel artist. I can create 16,777,215 unique works of art, each can be iterated or modified in 16,777,215 ways, each iteration should be a unique file, created at a unique time.

Right?

Just realised the filename adds a uniqueness to single pixel art. I could produce more than one unique single pixel artwork working in a single colour.

I'm going to be so rich!

# This last bit definitely isn’t true.
It’s simply not possible to detect this in an automated way, there’s no algorithm that can decide it. Ultimately, in the grey areas, it can only be determined by litigation.

On top of which, I do know enough about block chains to be certain this isn’t built into them.

# I guess it's the same as the actual art world
If you can buy direct from the artist via their platform or appointed, endorsed management you wouldn't buy of some random guy without a COA

Any work that I mint as XLVII will always carry my digital stamp and I will get a percentage every time it's sold on.
So in effect it's harder to fake than real life works but you can only show people your collection from your phone.

# That may be a feature of how this market works.
But it’s not a general feature of block chains.

# The block chain will prove the transaction took place.
So the seller can prove they sold it and the buyer can prove they bought it (within the security provided by the block chain in question; if you have more than 50% of the computing power used for Bitcoin, for instance, you can control it completely.)

That’s about it.... It doesn’t prove the seller had the right to sell it. It doesn’t prove the seller didn’t sell something identical in some other manner.

# Pretty sure the art remains on the artists page after selling
Collectors can see exactly what you've minted and sold previously and for how much. It's a totally open market where you can't hide anything.
You could possibly repeat stuff on other platforms but as artist you need integrity, so you stick to the rules or you don't sell anything.
