NFT

This article can be read in about 3 minutes.

NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token. These are unique tokens that represent ownership of a unique item or piece of content on the blockchain, typically the Ethereum blockchain, but they can exist on other blockchains as well.

Unlike cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, which are fungible and can be exchanged on a one-for-one basis (just like fiat currencies such as the US Dollar), NFTs are unique (non-fungible) and hold specific value. This means one NFT cannot be exchanged on a like-for-like basis with another NFT as each one has unique attributes.

NFTs can represent digital files, such as art, music, games, and other forms of creative work. When you buy an NFT, you gain the ownership rights to a unique piece of data on the blockchain. Importantly, while anyone can view or download digital artwork or other forms of digital content, only the owner of the NFT has the “official” ownership rights.

It’s also worth noting that NFTs have been subject to significant debate and controversy. Supporters believe NFTs are a new way for artists and content creators to monetize their work and engage with fans. Critics, on the other hand, raise concerns about environmental impact (due to the high energy consumption of many blockchains), potential for market manipulation, copyright infringement issues, and the potential for a speculative bubble.
