General NFT Questions
1. What is an NFT?
NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token. It’s a unique digital asset that represents ownership of a specific item, piece of art, or collectible in the digital world. NFTs are stored on blockchain technology, ensuring their authenticity and scarcity.
2. What is Blockchain Technology?
Blockchain technology is the underlying technology that powers cryptocurrencies and NFTs. It is a decentralized and distributed ledger system that records transactions across a network of computers. Each transaction is grouped into a block, and these blocks are linked together in a chain, forming a permanent and tamper-resistant record of all transactions.
3. What is NFT Minting?
Minting, in essence, refers to the act of generating a fresh NFT on the blockchain. After we produce our digital artwork, we transform it into an NFT through the minting process. On occasion, we extend the opportunity to our customers to perform the minting themselves. By doing so, they become the inaugural owners and can acquire these items at the most cost-effective rates.

5. Minting vs Buying NFTs?
Minting an NFT:
- Creating Something New: Minting means you are making a brand-new digital item, like art, music, or a collectible, and turning it into a unique digital collectible called an NFT.
- You’re the First Owner: When you mint an NFT, you’re the very first person to own it, and it gets recorded on a special digital ledger called the blockchain.
- Like Making Your Own Art: Think of it like making your own piece of art and saying, “This is mine, and nobody else has one exactly like it.”
Buying an NFT:
- Getting an Existing NFT: When you buy an NFT, you’re purchasing an NFT that someone else has already created and owned.
- Buying from the Owner: You’re buying it from the person who originally minted it or someone who bought it earlier.
- Like Buying a Collectible: It’s similar to buying a collectible, like a rare baseball card, from someone who had it before you.
