Question: if I use my ENS wallet to mint NFTs, the transaction on blockchain is resolvable by marketplaces to indicate the NFT was minted by the ENS wallet

What happens to that resolved transaction display of ENS when the ENS is pointed to another wallet in the future? 

My understanding is that the ENS would be removed and the original wallet transaction address would re-appear. I.e., the provenance of the ENS name associated with that token is lost.

Is there a way to authenticate previously used wallets for ENS domains, so that we are able to trace the provenance of that ENS usage, provided that it is the same holder of the ENS for both wallet? 

Appreciate any commentary or resources on this topic 🫡

Just wanted to thank @greg for the answer 🫡

Sub-domains: 

For any artists/creators/builders/blockchain people in general who are interested, a way to retain an element of provenance from your old ENS wallet (i.e., your ENS is no longer pointed at that old wallet address), is by introducing ENS subdomains. 

For example, if I have wallet 1 that my ENS is currently pointed at, and I want to change to wallet 2, the ENS is now pointed at wallet 2, and not wallet 1. 

However, I may have minted a lot of art on wallet 1, and don't want to lose the brand name (i.e., ENS) associated with the tokens minted from that wallet. 

I can create a new subdomain of my ENS, e.g., old.wanderloots.eth, and point that subdomain ENS at wallet 1. 

Now, old tokens from wallet 1 will display as "old.wanderloots.eth" and new tokens from wallet 2 will display as "wanderloots.eth" 

Sub-domains are a great way to keep the ENS name in the token history, even if you no longer use that wallet (for whatever reason) ✨
