# Can NFTs be copied?

Can [NFTs](https://www.mindstick.com/news/1197/shark-tank-s-kevin-o-leary-beliefs-nfts-could-beat-the-bitcoin) be copied?

## Answers

### Answer by Hitesh Vohra

Yes and no. While the 'NFT' technology cannot be duplicated due to security features inherited from blockchain, **the media can be simply copied.** Take, for example, Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa painting; while there are many replicas and iterations of the original, no two original Mona Lisa artwork exist. Similarly, while it is feasible to replicate the contents of an NFT, it is impossible to mimic the creator's wallet. NFTs have unique codes that can be traced back to their author and are recorded on the blockchain in an unchangeable manner. \
