​The Rolling Stones one-of-one NFTs that aren’t NFTs

Instead of calling the limited edition NFTs, which accompany vintage, real-life photo slides, the companies handling the drop are calling them Digital Certificates of Authenticity, or DCOAs. The strategy follows recent trend to avoid using NFT terminology when launching a collection of digital collectibles targeting mainstream consumers. The companies managing the drop, OneOf and Globe Entertainment, are using the term Digital Certificate of Authenticity, or DCOA. The trend of companies shying away from calling digital assets or tokens with utility NFTs in favor of more generic terminology like digital collectibles appears to be gaining momentum, especially when geared towards mainstream consumers. A recent promotion for a Nicolas Cage vampire movie, Fox Entertainment using tokens as loyalty passes for fans of its show “Masked Singer,” and Reddit's avatars are all examples of NFTs being issued without using the term itself. NFTs have come to carry a negative connotation for many as scandal and major price deterioration have plagued the digital-assets market, causing some people to sour on the once hot space.
