Some investments in non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have vastly outperformed cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Dogecoin (DOGE) in recent months. Celebrities such as Mike Tyson, Jay-Z, and Gary Vee have purchased NFTs and displayed them on their Twitter profiles, increasing demand for limited-edition tokenized art.
What are NFTs?
Non-fungible assets are assets that are not interchangeable with each other. Some non-expendable assets are parcels of land, art, and business cards. By tokenizing non-fungible assets on the blockchain, users can verify the authenticity of the unique digital assets they are purchasing.
