What are NFTs?
NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, are units of data, such as images, music, and GIFs, that are stored on the blockchain. Non-fungible means that each NFT is unique and cannot be replaced.
When something is fungible, it is interchangeable – it can be replaced by another identical item. Let’s take two decks of playing cards, for example. If the design is the same, you can exchange the Queen of Hearts from one deck to another without anyone noticing.
With non-fungible items, however, such as the Mona Lisa, you can’t exchange it with another identical Mona Lisa. Even if a forger produced a painting that looked exactly the same, only the original would have value. Non-fungible tokens are similar – they are unique and distinguishable from all other non-fungible tokens. As the immortal line goes, “There can be only one.”
This is because when NFTs are created or minted, they are written to a blockchain. This minting process ensures the authentication of each NFT by providing a digital signature that is used to track NFT ownership. Consider the Mona Lisa example. Anyone can replicate da Vinci’s masterpiece – you can even buy a print of it for a few dollars – but the owner of the authentic Mona Lisa is the French government.
The same concept applies to digital NFTs. Yes, anyone can right-click copy the image of a Degenerate Ape, but its ownership doesn’t transfer when you paste.
There are many potential uses for NFTs – digital art, games, virtual worlds, music, memes, and even film, living on blockchains like Ethereum, Solana, and Algorand. The metaverse awaits!
