NFT News

What are NFTs? NFTs explained in brief: Nonfungible tokens, or NFTs, are verifiably unique representations of digital and physical goods. Each NFT generally differs in makeup, and therefore likely differs in value as well. 

In the physical world, U.S. dollars are fungible. No value is forfeited if a person trades any given paper U.S. dollar for a different paper U.S. dollar. On the other hand, something such as artwork is generally nonfungible. The “Mona Lisa” is not of equal value to “The Persistence of Memory,” as both artworks are unique, deriving value as such. 

Based on distributed ledger technology, NFT crypto assets serve as a method of authentication for buyers of unique items, proving aspects such as ownership. NFTs became much more well known in 2020 and 2021. NFTs have potential for other use cases as well, such as companies tracking their internal resources or platforms verifying subscriptions and use.
