Greetings!, Hello everyone, hope you all are well.



It's a repost of my already done homework Link. As you know Professor @levycore recently deliver a lecture about the Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). He defines the NFTs very well and also gives us very important information about them that is easy to understand. Before his lecture, I do not even know the word NFTs. I am thankful to him that he teaches us about the NFTs coins in a very good manner. Thanks, Professor.

I chose Rarible the trending platform to sell and buy NFTs but first let's talk about Non-Fungible Tokens that we learned from the lesson.

  • Video Homework


ɪɴᴛʀᴏᴅᴜᴄᴛɪᴏɴ ᴛᴏ ɴᴏɴ-ғᴜɴɢɪʙʟᴇ ᴛᴏᴋᴇɴs

To understand the Non-Fungible Tokens easily let's go through with an example, Suppose that I have 20 USDT and you also have 20 USDT. The value of your 20 USDT is the same as me and my 20 USDT has the same value as yours. This is said to be a Fungible Token as I can exchange these USDT with your local currency or Ethereum and vice versa. So Fungible token has the same values and these are available market in good quantity.

But, if we talk about an asset that is more rare, collectible, and a small amount of it available in the market those tokens are said to be Non-Fungible Tokens. Let's take another example, suppose that there a shop in your city which is purchasing old and rare goods from people at low prices as people thinks that old things are useless and go to but a new one. But after some time when an old thing that the shop purchased from the people becomes rare, they sold it in good profit to someone who knows the value of rare things as it becomes a collectible asset.

The same scenario for an autograph of a celebrity who is died and Its autograph now become collectible and if it is real and original then we take to earn a good profit by it.

I hope you understand the meaning of Non-Fungible in our real-life things. Now let's change our flow towards blockchain. A blockchain named Rarible is one of the most popular projects to buy and sell the NFTs. We are going to elaborate on this project, what is it, how to put NFTs on it, How to create your own NFTs in Rarible, How to sell your collectibles.

    Yes, I mention it. You don't need to worry about it. Please read the post first then make a decision don't be panic.

    I already saw that Sc02 hasn't rewarded your last post as he is too busy these days and mostly he missed some posts - You can request them for some alternative reward but I don't think that copy/pasting the same post just for the rewards is a good decision.

    If everyone started doing the same thing just for the rewards then what will happen next. You are a good steemian and I think you should need to think about the goodness of the community.

    I hope you can understand what I am trying to say...!

    Have a Nice Day😊

    Yes you are right. But academy professors allow to repost the unrewarded post on which marks are >5 and RP level >= 50.
