Create & Sell your First NFT

Sooner or later web 3.0 is going to dominate the web, and once it is implemented the world of the internet is going to change. Meta has taken the first step towards it but it is not just the metaverse that will evolve. In fact everything that we know will change. The non-fungible token is also known as NFT is the second Step towards web 3.0. The first step was obviously was cryptocurrencies.

What are Fungible and Non-Fungible?

In Simple words Non-Fungible means non-replaceable. It means we can’t replace it with another thing because there is something unique. Suppose I give $100 to you and get from you 10 $10 notes, it means were have the same amount with the same value. Now, this is called fungible.

Suppose if we talk about the Mona Lisa painting, it is not fungible, why because it is unique and irreplaceable. It can not be replaced with another painting. Now, this is called non-fungible.

What is a token?

Suppose when we are going to buy a house, after buying the house there is a registry which you must fill that this house belongs to you. In the same manner, when you own something digitally, that registry is called Token. The token is also digital.

So, in a real-world lawyer, the government can track property in the records that it is yours but in the digital world, especially in the NFT market people are going to track it in the form of Blockchain. Now if you are thinking about what is Blockchain, that is entirely another story. But examples are bitcoin, Ethereum, dogecoin, and many more.

So, in simple words, a Non-fungible token means you can’t replace an item with another item and you have its license.

This is the simplest that I can explain, if you didn’t get it, do a google search and I hope you will find a simpler way.
