OpenSea: The Most Recognized NFT Marketplace

The NFT market is set to explode in 2021 with revenues exceeding $40 billion. From top musicians and athletes to business tycoons like Elon Musk, everyone is profiting from the NFT craze. There are also everyday creators who make their living from NFTs

So let us understand what exactly an NFT is.

NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token, which in layman’s terms is a block of data stored in the digital ledgers of the blockchain. These tokens are more like assets that have certain properties and are distinct from each other. Any physical asset like a house or a Lego play set can be introduced as an NFT. At the same time, there are also digital non-fungible tokens such as digital art, games and others.

NFT marketplaces are places where NFTs are traded with cryptocurrencies. Most of these marketplaces run on the Ethereum blockchain network and offer the opportunity to drive up the price of unique collectibles by converting them into NFTs, making the marketplaces popular with a range of audiences including investors, developers, and crypto enthusiasts.

Special features of NFTs

• Ownership: although not always the case, the purchase of an NFT gives customers some rights to the underlying digital asset, including ownership. Ownership of a digital asset can be recorded via blockchain technology and made publicly available so that it can be verified at any time. This also applies to physical NFTs.

• Uniqueness: NFTs are inherently unique because each NFT has its own property or code. Therefore, there is no way to market identically similar NFTs to attract buyers, which makes NFTs secure and unique and increases their value.
• Immutable: the information and code of the NFT cannot be manipulated. This makes an NFT absolutely transparent.
