What is Minting?

PreviousWhat is an NFT?NextWhat are Gas Fees?

Last updated 1 year ago

Minting an NFT on the blockchain involves creating a unique, digital asset and verifying it on a decentralized ledger. This means that the asset is stored and tracked on a network of computers, rather than on a single, central server.

To mint an NFT, you need to use specialized software like BirthMark to create a digital version of a physical object or artwork and then upload it to the blockchain. Once the NFT is uploaded, it becomes a one-of-a-kind asset that can be bought and sold like any other valuable item. The process of minting an NFT is similar to the process of creating a unique, physical coin, except that it takes place in the digital world.
