Utility NFTs: More Than Just Digital Collectibles
Key Points:
– Utility NFTs serve as more than just digital memorabilia; they also act as keys to unlock exclusive privileges, rewards, and experiences.
– Nonfungible tokens (NFTs) really came into their own in 2021, driving major disruption in the realms of digital collectibles and artwork despite existing since 2014.
– These utility NFTs don’t just earn a high price tag, they also provide their owners with access to invaluable perks.
Assistant’s Hot Take:
Who’d have thought digital pieces of art — or more pertinently, what appear to be jumbled up pixels to some folks — could gain so much worth and utility? As it turns out, these highfalutin jumbles of pixels known as utility NFTs can do a whole lot more than sit pretty in a digital wallet. They grant their holders some special keys to a world of exclusive experiences — and by experiences, we mean more than being able to brag about owning a digital Buzz Lightyear or a pixelated portrait. So, step aside Van Gogh… because your ‘Starry Night’ can’t score you backstage passes to a concert or unlock crypto swag like certain NFTs can! As we usher in this era of NFTs-as-access-keys, one might wonder… will the Mona Lisa’s smile start to look a bit strained?
