The NFT’s fever has made users see these as a potential source of business.
NFTs have gained huge popularity in recent times due to their blockchain technology that allows them to be unique assets.
NFTs have marked a before and after in popular culture and in the way of understanding concepts such as originality, private property and fungible and non-fungible elements, therefore, many are those who are more and more interested in these assets. This user, for her part, has shared how she managed to travel to Europe “with two thousand pesos” thanks to the NFTs.
NFTs and their validity
Whether you are for or against the sale of non-fungible tokens, the truth is that they have managed to mark a before and after in the way we understand private property. In the same way that people go to art galleries to bid on auctions, NFTs have managed to make many entrepreneurs a fortune buying unique tokens.
At a time when trends are easily overcome, it is difficult to compete against thousands and millions of entrepreneurs who may have already had the same idea as you, but much earlier and with greater resources. Thus, portals like OpenSea and concepts like Metaverse and blockchain could be the key for this to change
Hence, the possibility of making money with NFTs has been quite criticized by many users, since the volatility of these assets means that, for some, it is an invaluable opportunity for small entrepreneurs and artists to make their fortune from scratch, from their own spaces, for others it is nothing more than a pyramid scheme that promotes fraud for those who do not know what this world is about.
In fact, recently an F1 game that was powered by NFTs was discontinued and many gamers who had invested in this blockchain-powered video game found out overnight that their collectible assets were no longer worth anything.
On the other hand, one of the best known series of non-fungible tokens, NFT Punk, sold number 5822 of its collection for 23 million dollars, a stratospheric amount if we consider that it is a virtual item that, when serialized, is only a variant of at least 5821 other assets.
