Disclosed are various embodiments for verifying the presentation of media represented by non-fungible tokens (NFTs). A presentation device can receive a smart contract address and a non-fungible token (NFT) identifier from a client device. The presentation device can then execute a function of a smart contract located at the smart contract address to obtain the owner address for the NFT, wherein the NFT identifier is provided as an argument to the function of the smart contract. Subsequently, the presentation device can validate the owner address for the NFT. Then, in response to validation of the owner address for the NFT, the presentation device can present the media file represented by the NFT.
