Create your own NFT on OpenSea

NFTs are pretty trendy these days everyone is talking about this. You may hear the news that a photo got sold for 100 million dollars etc. But you got confused that why someone is paying such huge money which I can download from the internet for free? Those photos are NFTs.

NFT or a Non-fungible token is a non-interchangeable unit of data stored on a blockchain, a form of digital ledger. An NFT can be anything. From a photo to audio.
