NFT

As recently as a few years ago, most people had never heard of an NFT. This year their trading volume is expected to reach USD 35 billion. This is a rapid development - yet another example of how fast technology can progress in the 21st century. But what exactly is a Non-Fungible Token and why does it create such excitement in the cryptocurrency world?

An online sale of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) by the digital artist Murat Pak fetched a total of $16.8 million at Sotheby's, including an image of a single pixel which sold for $1.36 million, the auction house said on April 14.

Today, everything is offered as NFT, and the figures that are turning on the market are incredible, but the question is whether this trend will continue.

Is NFT (non-fungible tokens) just a passing internet trend, a potential bubble that will inflate and make worthless millions of dollars invested in it, or will we buy and own more and more digital products in this way in the future?

Fifteen years ago Jack Dorsey typed out a banal message - "just setting up my twttr" - which became the first-ever tweet, launching a global platform that has become a controversial and dominant force in civil society.

The short tweet on March 21, 2006, by the Twitter CEO is now being sold at auction, with bidding reaching $2.5 million.
