What Is NFT?

A Non-Fungible Token (NFT) is a unique digital asset stored on a blockchain that can be bought, sold, and traded. Unlike cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, NFTs are not interchangeable, and each token represents a distinct digital or physical asset. NFTs are commonly linked to digital files, including images, videos, music, and other creative works, providing a public certificate of authenticity or proof of ownership.

While NFTs can represent ownership, they do not inherently grant copyright, and the original creator may still produce additional NFTs from the same work. Despite legal uncertainties, NFTs have gained popularity as a new form of digital art investment and creative expression.

Uses of NFTs

Digital Art: NFTs have become a major platform for digital artists to showcase and sell their work. High-profile auctions, such as Beeple’s Everydays: The First 5000 Days and Pak’s Merge, have reached tens of millions of dollars. NFTs also enable emerging artists to enter the global digital art market through platforms like OpenSea, Foundation, and Rarible.

Games: NFTs represent in-game assets such as virtual land, skins, and collectibles. Games like CryptoKitties and Axie Infinity allow players to buy, sell, and trade unique digital items, creating new opportunities for gamers and developers alike.

Music: Musicians use NFTs to sell albums, exclusive tracks, or limited-edition digital collectibles. Artists such as 3LAU, Grimes, Lil Pump, and Eminem have successfully launched NFT projects to connect directly with fans and monetize their music.

Film and Media: NFTs are being integrated into the film industry to sell digital posters, exclusive clips, and entire film projects. Notable examples include Deadpool 2 digital collectibles, Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction NFTs, and NFTs linked to movie soundtracks.
