Why get started with NFTs?
NFTs, or Non-Fungible Tokens, have been making the headlines over the last year. From strange cartoon apes selling for millions of dollars to breedable digital cats and virtual land in the metaverse, 2021 saw an acceleration of interest in these strange new digital assets. And with sales of NFTs surpassing $25 billion dollars in sales in 2021 alone, they have also polarised opinion. To many, they are an overpriced and over hyped trend. To others, they are seen as an innovation that can push the limits of what is possible in the digital world. The reality is that there is a huge amount of noise in the space, and that is where CFTE can help. We intend to cut though the hype and provide you with a clear understanding of the world of NFTs.
