Lesson 1: Introduction to NFTs
Welcome to the first step in understanding the world of NFTs — Non-Fungible Tokens. In this lesson, we’ll explore what makes NFTs unique compared to regular cryptocurrencies, how digital ownership works on the blockchain, and the crucial role of metadata in defining what each token represents. You’ll discover how NFTs link art, identity, and technology, and why they’re reshaping the digital economy.

Recap:

NFTs = unique blockchain tokens that represent ownership of digital assets.

Key components: token, ownership record, and metadata (the “DNA” of an NFT).

Standards like ERC-721 and ERC-1155 ensure interoperability.

Metadata defines attributes, media links, and provenance — always verify it!
