Did you know that a 50-sec video by Grimes was converted into an NFT and was sold for $390,000? NFTs are selling like hotcakes to people who have a fad of collecting rare items.
So, what are these things, and why has there been such a craze around NFTs in recent times? While we’ve covered them in detail, let’s give you a quick overview: NFT stands for Non Fungible Tokens, mostly considered art pieces (but not limited to them). These tokens are one-off, mostly unique, and purchased by collectors as they believe their value will continue to increase. That also means that a fixed value cannot be assigned to an NFT, and its value is what its owner claims. NFTs work similarly that cryptocurrencies work; it is a digitized currency based on a blockchain architecture.
