Yep, really tricky one!

A bunch of popular early marketplaces (Ascribe, Digital Objects) stored metadata on their own servers: and when they went under, metadata was lost. 

But even with IPFS, a marketplace could stop paying for it and metadata disappears.

Questions that has been on my mind for a while:

What happens to historical nfts when the metadata is lost (which I'm sure has happened to multiple collections)?

Is there social or technical consensus around what replaces it and whether its acceptable to the market?

It would be good to also offer this as print on demand via lulu.com

That's a great call! We're currently only at ~50 A4 pages in this volume, but are thinking about an A5 version for easy reading in print. Lulu looks great, thanks for linking!
