How do NFTs work?

18 February 2023 By papmall®

NFTs reside on a blockchain, which is a public distributed ledger that records transactions. You've definitely heard of blockchain as the fundamental technique that allows currencies to exist.

NFTs are commonly held on the Ethereum blockchain, though they can also be held on other blockchains.

An NFT is "minted" from digital objects that represent both tangible and intangible elements, such as:

  • GIFs
  • Art
  • Videos and sports highlights
  • Collectibles
  • Video game skins and virtual avatars
  • Designer shoes
  • Music

Tweets are also considered. Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter, sold his first tweet as an NFT for over $2.9 million.

NFTs are essentially digital versions of tangible collector's artifacts. Instead of a physical oil painting to hang on the wall, the customer receives a digital file.

They will also have sole ownership rights. That's correct: NFTs can only have one owner at a time. The unique data of NFTs makes it simple to verify ownership and transfer tokens between owners. They can also be used to hold specific information by the owner or author. Artists, for example, can sign their work by putting their signature in the metadata of an NFT.
