NFTs — Creating Apotheosis Of Ownership

Over the past decade, we have witnessed the evolution of many unconventional modes of currencies that have stepped into the financial space. Practically every trader, investor, and the miner is profiting from the cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and other altcoins. Also, there are many digital currencies that have been evolving parallelly that transform the whole digital space.

One among them is the Non-Fungible Token. Despite the fact that many people worldwide still don’t understand its purpose or what they do, the hard fact remains that NFTs have taken the whole crypto sector by Storm by creating a handful of millionaires along the way.

However, over the years since their inception, NFTs have exploded massively, with sales racking up over millions of dollars so far.

So now, what exactly are they?

For the uninitiated, the acronym of NFT is NoN-Fungible Token. What makes it stand out from the rest of the cryptocurrency counterparts?

Obviously, it’s uniqueness.

Unlike other digital currencies, NFTs cannot be exchanged like-for-like, and hence only one true piece can ever exist.

To be more precise, as you all know, there can only be one original art piece, such as Mona Lisa. Same way NFTs are an additional layer to the object that claims its ownership or copyright”

The NFT is stored on the digital ledger that uses blockchain technology to establish the proof of ownership and value as well as other pertinent information. Like other digital assets, they can be traded, purchased, or sold on a dedicated marketplace.

In everything that involves the internet, NFTs have evolved to encapsulate anything that is digital and can be uploaded on the internet. Almost everything from music, art, video, and article can be converted into NFTs. Also, thanks to the growing interest in the metaverse, other assets and daily objects like clothes, watches can be minted as NFTs.

Utility Of NFTs

The real value of NFT is actually held within the information that can be assigned to them. Even though the digital asset cannot be altered once it is minted, adding information will benefit the holder in many ways.

For instance: if you look at the entertainment side, the addition of the information will create more interaction with the NFTs. Also, it can be possibly used in the growing number of metaverse that are further created.

So can I make money out of NFT?

Obviously yes!!

You can make huge money as an investor in the same way while you purchase a piece of art. The NFT’s values can go up as well as down. By the use of Ethereum and other cryptos, NFTs are becoming even more volatile by means of purchase.

Most importantly, if you are a creator, you can use this opportunity. A whole digital industry has sprung up around NFTs. As it is increasing, multiple marketplaces are also increasing, such as OpenSea, where you can buy, sell, and trade them.

Now let us deeply scrutinize the top few ways of making money from NFTs.

If you are wondering how people can make money with NFTs, by reading this blog, you will be glad to know there are many ways to do that.

Digital Works of Art

Individual NFT artworks are the most valuable and popular non-fungible tokens that have been created so far, as it is highly profitable. The history of art and blockchain changed dramatically when an auction house sold artwork for a stumble of $69 million.

NFTs provide ownership to the artist. This helps you show proof of authenticity when you create a digital asset and make a profit for your work. Suppose if you are a meme creator, you will be benefited when it is shared or circulated by many. Looking at it from this perspective, NFTs will definitely be a revolutionary technology for all art creators.

Fashion NFTs

Similar to artwork, NFTs for fashion is also an extraordinary use case. The core purpose of NFTs is to address authenticity issues and eradicate the possibility of counterfeits.

Fashion brands and clothing companies can be highly benefited from NFTs. They can release a digitized version of a limited edition outfit, collections of iconic celebrity pieces. Fashion brands and clothing companies can also benefit by developing an NFT marketplace to showcase their unique clothes and accessories. By doing this, they can generate unlimited revenue from the NFTs in a secure and robust environment.

Licensed Collectibles

Tokenizing collectibles is one of the best niche applications of NFTs. Also, it gives a feeling like it is the most obvious way to deal with all unique collectibles. People in this sector are already dealing with physical collectibles such as trinkets, trading cards, memorabilia, and other items that can sell the same as digital assets. With NFT’s capability to prove uniqueness, the value of each collectible can be significantly higher than its physical assets.

One of the most popular collectibles so far is cards or sports cards. Initially, the trading license was only allowed for football cards. But now, the National Basketball Association(NBA), after witnessing the huge response for NFTs, they have decided to launch its collection of NFT cards. There’s a high expectation that other sports will also follow suit and collections, which will pave the way for a wider variety of sport NFTs to buy.

This does mean that other collectibles aren’t booming or doing well. As stated previously, physical collectibles can be converted into tokenized assets that can be bought, sold, and traded. Also, if you know that most of the physical trading may cause damage to the collectibles, but NFTs can never lose their quality, or it is never damaged as they only exist in digital form and are highly secured on the blockchain.

Video Games

Video game NFTs are also reaching heights as blockchain. It allows you to turn the games from paying to winning to play and earn. In the gaming industry, NFT game development will be a solution and will go a long way to create engagement for larger audiences and increase revenue opportunities with high-demand rewards. Here the games will have functions that allow you to buy, sell, trade, or exchange your other collectibles. Even though there are no such games that have gained the potential of NFT’s and high popularity, it will definitely have an enormous impact in the near future.

With games being well-known among a huge audience, the virtual items with NFTs, in-game items, are highly sellable and likely to become a big winner. Also, note that NFT video game developers are becoming ambitious creators of NFTs, which I think will thrust the whole NFT technology further forward.

Compared with other NFTs such as fashion, artwork, and trading cards, in-game NFTs are the most advanced. This is mainly because it is complex, fully interactive, and yet keeps changing with time or if it is leveled with the changes in a player’s character.

So now, how to create one?

Unexpectedly, creating an NFT isn’t complex. There are platforms that totally guide you on the entire process of creating your own NFTs. The Non-Fungible Token is built and supported by a particular blockchain. Among various blockchains, Ethereum NFT is the most popular one. Apart from Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain and Flow are also commonly used for dev eloping NFT.

So you basically need to have a cryptocurrency and a crypto wallet. This is mainly in Ethereum when you transact. You are allowed to sell or buy NFTs for cryptocurrencies as well as for fiat currencies through smart contracts. These smart contracts record and store all the transactions in the ledger.

I Bet Non-Fungible Tokens Are The future

Blockchain technology has been growing since 2011, and NFTs have been employed in various sectors across large-scale tires, especially in the artwork industry, to tokenize real-world and tangible items.

The potential of NFT has proven itself to uncover new levels of business growth and scalability while increasing authenticity and trust among all involved parties.

NFTs are managed by blockchain, which had recently taken center stage in the world of digital after when a digital art piece was sold for nearly 70M$. Also, NFTs have been used to set property ownership, secure people’s identities, and so much more yet to provide.

Concluding it with a strong opinion, As the popularity of NFTs continuous to grow, I am damn sure they are here to stay and conquer the digital world.
