NFTs are currently taking the digital art and collectables world by storm. Digital artists are seeing their lives change thanks to huge sales to a new crypto-audience. And celebrities are joining in as they spot a new opportunity to connect with fans. But digital art is only one way to use NFTs. Really they can be used to represent ownership of any unique asset, like a deed for an item in the digital or physical realm.
You must have heard a lot about NFT recently or a picture created by the internet sold for 1 million. So what to know about non-fungible tokens (NFTs) — unique digital assets built on blockchain technology?
Collection of BAYC
Other people may be able to make copies of the image, video, or digital item that you own when you buy an NFT. But, similar to buying a unique piece of art or limited-series print, the original could be more valuable.
You can buy, sell, trade and create NFTs from online exchanges or marketplaces. The creator or current owner may choose a specific price. Or, there may be an auction, and you’ll have to bid on the NFT. Some places with large and reputable transaction volumes you can refer to:
NFT uses blockchain technology to create a unique market, especially Ethereum is the blockchain chain most used by the creators. Nearly the Bored Ape Yacht Club – BAYC just owns token ApeCoin for future products and services. Let’s take a look at the top 5 collections with the highest Marketcap in the last 7 days on Ethereum.
The CryptoPunks are 10,000 uniquely generated characters. No two are exactly alike, and each one of them can be officially owned by a single person on the Ethereum blockchain. Originally, they could be claimed for free by anybody with an Ethereum wallet, but all 10,000 were quickly claimed. Now they must be purchased from someone via the marketplace that’s also embedded in the blockchain.

While there may be many practical applications for NFTs in the future, they’re primarily used with digital art today.
“For creators, NFTs create a seamless way to sell digital art that might not have much of a market. Additionally, there are ways in which creators can get paid fees for each subsequent sale of the art,” says Ceesay. “On the flip side, collectors are able to speculate on digital art as well as have bragging rights on rare collectables on the chain.”
If you’re considering purchasing an NFT as an investment, know that there’s no guarantee it will increase in value. While some NFTs sell for thousands or millions of dollars, others may remain or become worthless.
