# Introduction Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) are a kind of cryptographic digital proof of interest secured with blockchain technology. They cannot be copied, tampered with or divided and can be used to map physical assets such as collectibles and virtual assets such as images, music, game props, etc. The core value of NFTs lies in "digital content assetization". Blockchain technology ensures the uniqueness, authenticity and permanence of digital assets, enhances their liquidity, enables creator royalties and mitigates the pain point of copyright protection. Starting from the first NFT project Cryptopunks in 2017, the NFT industry experienced a period of rapid growth and expansion in 2021. *Everydays: The First 5000 Days* by Beeple was auctioned at a record price of $69.34 million, and captured mainstream attention. Subsequently the minting and purchase of NFTs by celebrities became commonplace. At the same time the blockchain game Axie Infinity created a stir in the Philippines with its play to earn model. At its peak in the third quarter of 2021 the value of NFT transactions exploded, reaching a total of $2.842 billion for the 30-day market on September 6. In spite of a slowdown in 2022, analysts reported a CAGR for the NFT industry of 33%.
