NFTs and The Metaverse have been a trending topic in the new age crypto sphere, with thousands of top notch artists and companies rushing in with super collections. Of What Use are these non fungible tokens? Before we could get an answer to this, What is an NFT? and What Is SmartBCH?
What Is An NFT?
In a simple term, an NFT is an abbreviation which means Non-Fungible Tokens.
I'll use this scenario to make this clearer;
Mr. A owns a piece of Bitcoin and trades it for another, Ow! he just traded Bitcoin For Bitcoin and that makes it fungible but if he had a non-fungible token, For instance a gift card, or a discount card, a ticket, he could trade it for a toy, a discounted meal or an access to a homecoming party respectively. Now, after trading them, Mr A discovers he got something different.
Wikipedia would rather define it this way, A non-fungible token is a non-interchangeable unit of data stored on a blockchain, a form of digital ledger, that can be sold and traded. Types of NFT data units may be associated with digital files such as photos, videos, and audio.
Use Cases Of NFTs
NFT use cases are still in their infancy, but it is clear that not only gamers will benefit from this, but also regular people who are going about their daily lives. Not only will this provide ease of use for many services, but it will also increase transparency on many transactions, especially when it comes to ownership of physical properties such as artworks, real estate, a concept or idea, and the like.
What Is SmartBCH?
