Well, greater fools theory is a thing. Plus some NFTs have embedded into the code information about the original owner, and every time it sells, a portion of the sale price is sent back to the creator's wallet. And some NFTs have the ability to be moved off one site (original purchase location) into a digital wallet somewhere else, to be sold on a different exchange or just stored there in case of crash/theft. TopShot minted their "moments" with the availability that they could be moved off-site, however Panini's original blockchain was more like an Excel spreadsheet with tracking and all transactions needed to stay there (so Panini gets a recurring cut of every sale).
