Why are NFTs important?

NFTs are important for 4 reasons:

OWNERSHIP

  • The foremost advantage of NFTs is evident in the proof of ownership.
  • NFTs ensure that buyers are safe from the concerns of fake NFTs. Downloading a picture of the Mona Lisa from the internet does not make you its owner.

AUTHENTICITY

  • NFTs assure authenticity: they are immune to modifications, removal, or replacement.

TRANSFERABILITY

  • Since NFTs are based on smart contracts, ownership transfers become easy by incorporating the use of smart contracts.
  • Ownership transfers can be completed upon fulfilment of specific conditions between buyer and seller outlined in smart contracts.

PASSIVE INCOME & RECOGNITION FOR NFTs CREATORS

  • With the help of NFTs, the ownership of content is integrated into the content only. So, when the creators sell their content, the funds go directly to them.
  • If a new owner sells the NFT, the creator could receive royalties by setting up smart contracts while developing NFTs. The original creator can receive royalties for each re-sale of the token since the NFT metadata includes the creator’s address.

The owner of an NFT uses blockchain technology to establish a verified and public proof of ownership.

The first NFT project was launched in 2015 and the interest has been growing rapidly ever since.
