Well, yes, land is managed through state enforced violence but also the laws of physics.
There’s only so much that can fit on an area of land. If I build a house that takes up the full extent of the property, then nobody else can use the land for, say, a parking lot without me removing my house first. Every bit of land used/bought is a reduction in the amount of land left to buy.
But a JPG can have unlimited copies made of it, providing unlimited storage. If I make a copy of a NFT image, I don’t deprive the owner of the image. If I buy a piece of land and use it, I’m kind of depriving others from use of that land.
