What is NFT?
An NFT, or non-fungible token, is a digital asset that symbolises a material thing, such as the Charlie Bit My Finger video, which sold for £500,000 in May. NFTs are typically purchased and traded online, often using cryptocurrency, and are commonly encoded with the same underlying software as many cryptocurrencies. It has the same system like Cryptocurrency. but different from it. Physical currency and cryptocurrencies are both “fungible,” which means they may be traded or swapped for one another. There are several systems and blockchains on which to mint NFTs, each with its own set of pros and downsides. Each NFT is one-of-a-kind and cannot be duplicated. As a result, you may think of them as one-of-a-kind digital things that no one else has.
Create an E-Wallet
Wallets are the software that you use to store your cryptocurrencies as well as any NFTs that you mint or purchase. MetaMask’s wallet is one of the wallets extensively supported by Ethereum-based services like as OpenSea, Foundation, and others, and it is available as a Chrome / Firefox extension as well as an iOS / Android app.
Choose the Best Blockchain
Choose the best blockchain for your collection. The Ethereum blockchain and the Polygon blockchain are two opposing viewpoints. Choose the Polygon option if you want to avoid paying any gas fees (transaction charges).
Create an NFT
NFTs are commonly kept on the Ethereum blockchain, although they are also supported by other blockchains. An NFT is created, or “minted,” from digital objects representing both tangible and intangible items, such as:
Art Animated GIFs Sports highlights and videos Antiques and collectibles Video game skins and virtual avatars High-end sneakers Musical Instruments
NFTs can only have one owner at a time. The unique data of NFTs makes it simple to confirm ownership and exchange tokens between owners. They can also be used to hold particular information by the owner or author. Artists, for example, can sign their work by putting their signature in the metadata of an NFT.

Should you buy NFT? Is it a good idea?
“NFTs are risky since their future is unpredictable, and we don’t yet have a lot of historical evidence to evaluate their performance. Because NFTs are so new, it may be worth spending tiny sums to test them out for the time being.” In other words, investing in NFTs is mostly a personal choice. If you have some extra cash, it’s worth thinking about, especially if the artwork has sentimental value to you. Artists and content creators have a unique potential to monetize their work, thanks to blockchain technology and NFTs.
