What is an NFT?

NFT stands for “Non-fungible token”.

“Non-fungible” more or less means that it’s unique and can’t be replaced with something else. For example, a Bitcoin is fungible — trade one for another Bitcoin, and you’ll have exactly the same thing. A one-of-a-kind trading card, however, is non-fungible. If you traded it for a different card, you’d have something completely different.

Card collecting as a hobby

1. NFTs in Sport

Highlights of some particular moments can be sold as NFTs, and they can be invaluable to a fan. The NBA is already using this mechanism extensively.

2. NFTs in Music

Some artists have already started interacting with their fans, finding new ways to monetize using NFTs, associating them with some particular activities or unique moments.

3. NFTs in Voting

NFTs can simplify the voting process by eliminating the problem of voter identification and voter fraud

4. NFTs in Games

In the gaming world, there are many applications: recording the player’s status to make the game cross-platform, simplifying the exchange process in the game. There are also games that are based on NFTs, it will be very interesting to try them.

5. NFTs in Tickets

In the future, paper tickets could disappear, and be replaced by NFTs that prove their validity, making it even easier to check

6. NFTs in Real Estates

A physical property or land can be represented as an NFT on the Blockchain. It’s possible in this way to keep track of both the real estate’s property and the history of the owners

7. NFTs in Supply Chains

NFTs can be used to understand the production status and shipping delivery status of a product.

8. NFTs in Artwork Tracking

Many works of art are actually imitations, and it is difficult to trace the old owners. With NFTs, you can check the history of all the former owners (which could also increase the value of the object itself!) and the authenticity.

9. NFTs in Intellectual Property

NFTs can be used to prove the intellectual property of discoveries, innovations, and inventions.

10. NFTs in Schools and Degrees

Paper degrees may disappear in the future. NFTs can be used to iron out results as a student and to certify the status and the achievement of objectives (degrees).

11. NFTs in Patient’s Health History

NFTs can be used to record a person’s health history. Thanks to the fact that this history is not editable you have a faithful list. NFT ledgers provide a method to protect these sensitive data to make them private and not accessible to everyone.

12. NFTs in Authenticity of food/medicines

Thanks to the fact that the history of the NFT is not editable, it is possible to verify all the movements and passages in the production process of an object, for example, food and medicine.
