NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token. Non-fungible means that a commodity can not be changed for another item because it's unique. For case, one piece of art isn't equal. To another. Both have special parcels. On the other hand, Commutable particulars can be changed for one another. For case, one bone or Bitcoin is always equal to another.
Okay, but what's an NFT?
NFTs are commemoratives that live on a blockchain and represent the power of unique particulars.
Why is that useful?
Tracking who owns a digital train is tricky because it can be copied and distributed Painlessly. So how can you prove who is the original proprietor
when everyone has an identical dupe of the train? NFTs break this problem. Imagine that you made a piece of digital art, basically a JPG, on your computer. You can produce or mint an NFT out of this. The NFT that represents your art contains a bit of information about it, similar to a unique train point, a token name, and a symbol. This commemorative is also stored on a blockchain, and you, the artist, become the proprietor.
Now you can vend that commemorative by creating a sale on the blockchain. The blockchain makes sure that this information can noway be tampered with. It also allows you to track who is the current proprietor of a commemorative and how important it has been sold in history.
It's important to note that the artwork isn't stored within the NFT or the blockchain. Only its attributes, similar to the train's point or hash, a token name, and symbol, and voluntarily a link to a train hosted on IPFS.
Now then is where NFTs come weird.
When you buy an NFT that represents artwork, you do not get a physical dupe. Most of the time, everyone can download a dupe for free. The NFT only represents power, which is recorded in a blockchain so that nothing can tamper with it.
Some say that NFTs give you digital bragging rights. And to make it weirder, the commemorative proprietor owns the original artwork, the creator of the NFT retains the brand and the reduplication rights.
So an artist can vend his original artwork as an NFT, but he can still sell prints. Away from digital art, NFTs can also be used to sell musical tickets, sphere names, rare in-game particulars, real estate, and principally anything that's unique and needs evidence of power.

For illustration, the author of Twitter sold his first tweet as an NFT. Anyone can see that tweet on his profile, but only one person can enjoy it now.
And that person paid over 2.9 million bones for it. I could indeed make an NFT out of this composition. You could also buy it and be the proprietor of this composition, indeed, though, 's free to read for everyone.
Why are some NFTs worth millions?
Their worth is determined by what people are willing to pay for them. However, it's worth a hundred bones, If I am ready to pay a hundred bones for a particular NFT.
Demand drives prices, so be careful because a precious NFT becomes empty if nothing wants to buy it. Okay, one further thing before we end how to do
Do they work technically?
NFTs are smart contracts that live on a blockchain. In this case, the contract stores the unique parcels of the item and keeps track of current and former possessors. An NFT can indeed be programmed to give royalties to the creator every time it exchanges hands.
