How can there be "only" 250 copies of this item, when you've said that they are just going to be printouts - that anyone can now do.

I thought I had made this pretty clear to anyone that understands crypto..

For example.. You can print as many pictures of Bitcoins as you like.
Say you print 21million pictures of a bitcoin, you have not doubled the supply of bitcoin nor have you actually created any real bitcoin..
There still will only ever be 21mm BTC and nobody is going to accept your bitcoin pictures for trade as bitcoins..

This signature proves I own the assets you can see on that block explorer..

Print all you want and you still can't sign a message proving you own anything, because you don't.
The blockchain asset is the ownership, not a piece of paper.. Same with buyer funded or unfunded physical bitcoins, sure you own a cool round thing that looks like a bitcoin, but unless you can see it on the block explorer you don't own any actual bitcoins.

Make sense?
