What are NFTs?

NFTs aren’t fungible, as the name implies. This means that each NFT is unique and one can’t be switched out for another, as in the case for Bitcoin or Ether. It’s like the deed to your house or the registration of your car. Yes, it has value, but one can’t be switched out for another — even if they have the same price.

Like Twitter, Reddit is also launching NFTs of its famous alien mascot, $4 — only they’re not free but being auctioned off on the NFT platform OpenSea.

However, the debate over whether the NFT fad is just a bubble or a real solution is still ongoing. Coinbase co-founder, Fred Ehrsam, told Bloomberg TV that 90% NFTs would be $4 Meanwhile, more and more organisations are jumping on the NFT bandwagon from Formula 1’s $100 million $4 to crypto exchanges branching out into offering NFT marketplaces.
