🧵 An NFT (Non-fungible token) is software code that shows ownership of “something,” usually off-chain.
That “something” can be just about anything; or any combination of things. 🔄🧵Sure, it might be a jpeg, but it also might be intellectual property rights, access to streaming data, tickets to an event, or title to a house; or all four in a 1 single NFT.
The possibilities are literally endless! ♾️🧵Whether you're an artist, a business owner, or a consumer, understanding the potential of digital assets is crucial in navigating the evolving landscape of digital ownership & transactions.
