What Is NFT? Why Is It Making A Fuzz?

What Is an NFT?

NFT's are non-fungible tokens that can be used to represent the ownership of a unique item. Using NFT, we can tokenize arts, collectables, real estate etc. An NFT can only have one owner at a time and it is secured by Ethereum blockchain. It is impossible to modify the record of ownership, copy or paste a new NFT. The work Non-Fungible is a term used to describe things like cars, laptops, songs, movies etc. These items are unique and cannot be interchanged because of their unique properties.

Fungible is an interchangeable item with a value that defines them irrespective of their properties. Consider BTC and USD for example, these are interchangeable for their value.
