Understanding NFTs: More Than a JPEG

Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) have made headlines through viral art sales - but their real value lies in what they unlock.

An NFT is a unique digital certificate stored on the blockchain. It proves ownership of something original - not just in art, but in gaming, music, fashion, and even real estate. Unlike cryptocurrencies, NFTs are not interchangeable. Each one is distinct and backed by smart contracts that can define usage rights, royalties, and even functionality.

Common use cases include:

• Digital event tickets
• Gaming assets with real-world value
• Music ownership and streaming rights
• Licensing and legal documentation
• Tokenized land or property access

From Collectibles to Credentialing
What makes NFTs exciting isn’t just scarcity - it’s utility.
Brands use them for customer engagement. Musicians monetize their work directly. Universities explore NFTs for certifying diplomas. Even airlines are experimenting with them for ticketing and loyalty.

And the tech is still young. With improved standards, cross-platform support, and identity layers, NFTs may soon become key components of Web3 infrastructure - not just speculative assets.

Conclusion:
 Don’t get distracted by overpriced monkey pics. Focus on how NFTs are building a new economy of digital ownership.
