What is NFT?
NFT is known as a non-fungible token (NFT) which is a blockchain-based innovation and unique identifier, which cryptographically appoints and verifies ownership of digital assets. It is prevalent amongst people who deal in the cryptocurrency market. Recently, it has gained a broad populace amongst celebrities and corporations like CNN.
NFT functions as a new technology linking ownership to digital or physical items such as real estate, art, furniture, videos, or music.
Non-Fungible tokens are capable of being sold and bought online. Also, they are a representation of digital proof regarding actual ownership of a particular item.
To understand what NFT means, fungibility needs to be defined.
Fungibility is the ability of an asset to be interchanged or substituted with similar investments of the same value. NFT is a part of the economic concept of fungibility, which is espoused below.
The concept of fungibility consists of fungible and non-fungible items. Fungible items are unique items that can be traded without issues because they are not affixed to their uniqueness.
A classic example is that one can exchange a particular amount of money for that same amount of money; the same applies to cryptocurrency; one can engage in cryptocurrency exchange using different services like Paybis, Binance, etc. On these sites, anyone can buy USDT or any other cryptocurrency in one click. The only difference is that the exchanged cash has a different serial number or different form. However, non-fungible items are not exchangeable because each token possesses unique properties, and its worth is different from other tokens. They are special items.
How do NFTs work?
NFT is part of the Ethereum blockchain. Ethereum is simply like other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, etc., but its blockchain secures NFTs and helps it store more information on it. This makes NFTs distinctive from cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Eth coin.
What makes NFT really interesting is that a particular item could be sold worldwide, but the original piece has a unique ownership quality. Think of how amazing your DNA is. It is the unique DNA in the whole world; that is how non-fungible items are.
