Understanding Non-Fungible Tokens
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are unique digital assets secured on a blockchain, distinguished by their cryptographic protection and unique metadata. This uniqueness contrasts with fungible assets, such as Bitcoin or dollar bills, which are interchangeable. NFTs derived their concept from earlier blockchain ideas like colored coins but gained mainstream attention through applications like the online game CryptoKitties, where players can adopt and trade virtual cats on the blockchain. The NFT market reflects a new evolution in digital ownership, encapsulating the qualities of physical assets, including scarcity and authenticity.
