The NFT Store

When one first realizes the existence of NFT‌, the first question that probably arises is, "So what?" "Why should anyone pay for this?"

We answer this question with a question. If Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece "Mona Lisa" were put up for sale today, what would be the offer? One million dollars? 10 million dollars? 100 million dollars? Very much higher than these figures.

Apart from mounting on the wall, is there any other benefit to painting Mona Lisa? You might say: "Mona Lisa is a beautiful physical painting that you can see and touch."

If it's just a matter of physicality and beauty of the image, you can download the Mona Lisa painting image from the web.

So apart from how beautiful the Mona Lisa painting is, other reasons make it valuable:

1- Artist: Leonardo da Vinci

2- Uniqueness and rarity of the work: Only one example of the Mona Lisa painted by Leonardo da Vinci makes it unique and rare. Also, the special smile in the image distinguishes it.

3- Ownership: Eventually, everything ends up in ownership. A billionaire buys the Mona Lisa painting because he gets the actual owner of a work that Leonardo da Vinci created with his own hands a few hundred years ago, and he can be proud of it. He will become famous. The buyer of the painting will own it, and its value will increase over time.

The same is true of NFTs, but it is a little harder to understand. Here you might say: "I can download a video that sold for 6 million dollars only with two simple clicks."

Yes, you can download the video to your computer, just as you can take a photo with a Mona Lisa painting in a museum, but you are not the actual owner of the work.

When you see an image selling as an NFT token for 100,000 dollars, it may seem ridiculous at first glance, but when you look deeper, you can see that the same principles apply to this token:

1- Artist: The person who created this work is probably famous or has a lot of followers.

2- Uniqueness and scarcity of work: there is only one or a limited number, so it is rare.

3- Ownership: You can easily save an NFT image on your PC or phone with a few clicks, but it's like downloading a Mona Lisa image on your PC. As a rule, by purchasing NFT, your ownership is registered on the China block in a decentralized manner, and no one can deny that history on the China block. With this technology, you can save an NFT on your wallet and transfer ownership to someone else in less than a few seconds. The artist may even provide you with the highest possible quality; Something you cannot find on the Internet.

The main thing that gives meaning to an NFT is ownership. Of course, we also acknowledge that the NFT field is at the beginning of its path and sometimes smells of madness, insanity, and ignorance. But what is clear is that NFT has a bright and glorious future.
