Steemit Crypto Academy Contest Season 2 Week 4 - What are NFTs?

This is the fourth week of the second Steemit Engagement Challenge season and as a last step I wish you that you had a good experience with our competitions and that you learned from several notions that we proposed, for this we hope that you leave your feedback to improve our content for the benefit of everyone.

We are going to close this week, with a very interesting topic in the cryptographic field, namely non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, which are now part of the landscape of blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies.

Contest theme: "What are NFTs"

How many people have heard of NFTs in recent months? A lot. Who understood what a Non-Fungible Token was? Not many people. An NFT is a digital asset that provides evidence of the authenticity of a digital object. We'll see what that actually means.

Today anyone can create an NFT or buy an NFT with the hope of earning (a lot of) money. Are NFTs the new El Dorado?

Despite massive enthusiasm for these precious certificates and the gradual opening of the crypto-sphere to the general public, NFT technology remains unclear to most people.

• Using your own words to define non-fungible tokens: NFT, and to show the difference between fungible and non-fungible tokens.

• Are NFTs interchangeable? What are the differences between an NFT and other currencies? Is there an NFT marketplace? And how to invest in NFTs?
