INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Is it true that a non-fungible token can serve as a certificate of ownership for a physical object?
Unclear. Several sources describe NFTs as certificates of ownership or authenticity, and one demonstrator pairs a physical vinyl record with an NFT ownership certificate, but the general references tie NFTs mainly to digital files and assets, and the physical-object case is only a single early-stage example.
