Hands on #3 NFTs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NFT’s are either an artwork in themselves on a blockchain (think Beeple) or a placeholder for a piece of art that is larger (NFT’s have size limitations: )<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a charge to MINT an NFT but there are work arounds:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are asking you to use a marketplace akin to Opensea or other of you choice to see how the marketplace behaves (that’s your ‘playwith’). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then consider your art-form of choice, and how an NFT might be sold as commemoratives or as “stock” in a future offering or as a tokenized ownership of a larger piece of art. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following links will guide you through creating an NFT – you do NOT need to actually MINT it. The first article talks about how you can set up a wallet for free and then walk through the entire process for creating the NFT up until minting. This is a free process \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n
