Crypto enthusiasts burn and digitize Banksy artwork

CBS, 05 Mar 2021
A blockchain company bought a $95,000 Banksy artwork, burned it and broadcast it live on Twitter -- all part of a process of turning the work into a virtual asset called a non-fungible token, or NFT. CBSN technology reporter Dan Patterson joins CBSN anchor Lana Zak to explain what it all means.
