There are two main ways to make money on NFT: mint and sell your own collection, or just purchase the existing one and resell it when the price gets higher. Today, we will explore the second way, which requires less technical skills and better suits beginners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to invest in NFTs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this context, investing in NFTs means purchasing a token or an NFT collection with the aim to resell it later for a higher price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start investing in NFTs, you need 3 basic elements: an NFT marketplace, a crypto wallet and some amount of Ethereum. There are many NFT marketplaces: Binance NFT, Rarible, and OpenSea \u2014 the biggest one and the best for start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) Register a new account on OpenSea (or another platform, as you wish).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Create a crypto wallet and purchase some ETH: you will need it to pay gas fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Link your crypto wallet to your OpenSea account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) Purchase your first NFT on auction or for a flat fee. Note: the final price on auction may be much higher than the initial price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best investing strategies<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t know how to start, try one of these most popular strategies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invest in NFT digital art<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

NFT artworks remain the most widespread tool for digital investments and making money. By investing in NFT digital art, you can sell them to earn profits when their value increases in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invest in NFT games<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Play-to-earn games are rapidly gaining popularity among both gamers and investors. Gaming NFTs are represented as items such as skins, guns, collectibles, etc, which players are just chasing after. They can be traded on in-game marketplace or outside platforms, and rise in price as the game evolves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invest in NFT startups<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

There are a lot of promising NFTs startups in the crypto market. Most of them have low prices at the start, but have all chances to become to-the-moon projects, and make something revolutionary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NFTs for investing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, the best digital assets for investing are well-known and acknowledged collections such as Crypto Punks or Bored Apes. Even Justin Bieber has purchased an Ape\u2026for $1.3 million!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, the main issue for beginners is a pretty high cost of these NFTs. However, there are thousands of less famous but ambitious collections, which can also be a good investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before choosing your first NFT, do some analytics: explore leaderboards<\/a> of trending collections to find out which performs best, and which attracts the most investors\u2019 attention. Check hashtags of these collections on Twitter to see what other people think about them. Try to find more information about the developers, and if they have already created other successful projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making money on NFTs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you have purchased your first NFT, the next thing you need to do is to select the most suitable way of earning profit. Let\u2019s explore some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trading<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

NFTs can be treated just like stocks: purchased for a lower price, and then sold more expensively. However, trading may seem risky amidst the ongoing bear market. For this strategy, knowing when to sell is crucial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Renting out<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Renting out is an effective way to earn money from NFTs without losing ownership. You can just loan your NFT to someone for some time in exchange for money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Staking<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

NFT staking is putting your tokens to work on the blockchain for a reward. We have already described this method in one of our previous articles<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion: Are NFTs a good investment?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although digital assets are often thought of as a risky venture, we can witness how NFTs are conquering the world step by step. They appear in traditional games, in promo campaigns of popular brands, even celebrities create NFTs to hype. Such interest shows that the future of NFT will be very promising and exciting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today we are in the middle of another bear market, when the prices are low and everything seems hopeless. But each downtrend is followed by a new successful cycle. So, don\u2019t miss your opportunity to catch this train!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

The mastermind behind Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin invented the world\u2019s hottest cryptocurrency and inspired a decentralization movement before he even turned 20. Let\u2019s learn the story of just a smart guy who boosted the whole industry, and keeps moving it to the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who is who<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vitalik Buterin (born 1994) is a programmer who designed Ethereum and was one of its co-founders. Born in Russia, he moved with his family to Canada when he was 6, and visited a school for gifted children, studying math, programming, and economics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His father was a computer scientist, from whom Vitalik learned about Bitcoin at the age of 17. So, Buterin became involved with cryptocurrency early in its inception, also co-founding Bitcoin Magazine in 2011. Interestingly, there he got his first crypto payments for his articles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethereum origins<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspired by Bitcoin, Vilatik started to gather the team of developers who shared his enthusiasm for code. He published a white paper proposing Ethereum in 2014, and graduated from the university in the same year, receiving a grant worth $100,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buterin set up Ethereum with Gavin Wood, Charles Hoskinson, Anthony Di Iorio and Joseph Lubin, and went to work on his project full-time. The official launch took place in January 2014, at the North American Bitcoin Conference in Miami.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideas behind Ethereum<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since teenage years, Buterin was developing his views on the dangers of centralization as well as the benefits of individual sovereignty and decentralization. He decided that he needed to create a separate platform from Bitcoin, with far larger possibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Bitcoin is centered around the concept of decentralized money, Ethereum offers developers to build all kinds of dApps just on the network: from meme cat collectibles and blockchain games, to digital ID and tokenized asset platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buterin also elaborated other innovative use cases, such as decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Changing the world<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s no question that Vitalik Buterin is one of the most influential people in the crypto industry, and his Ethereum is a highly important project to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides the development of core Ethereum\u2019s blockchain (ETH 2.0 upgrade, sharding, layer-two scalability solutions, etc.), Vitalik has worked on multiple technological initiatives, concepts, and innovations in the Ethereum ecosystem and the broader crypto industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, first NFTs were minted on Ethereum, as well as several hundreds of tokens have been launched using its mainnet. Most dApps, web3 networks and metaverses are also Ethereum-based. Along with this, ETH is steadily remaining the world\u2019s second cryptocurrency by market capitalization, and it\u2019s more flexible and rapid than BTC, which makes it even more popular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making investors invest<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethereum kickstarted the development of dApps, represented by multiple blockchain games, DeFi solutions, crypto & NFT marketplaces, etc, working on a stable and safe network. Projects from the crypto industry finally got investors\u2019 trust and are now receiving billions of dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some may remember it was Ethereum that fueled the ICO craze in 2017, as well as the DeFi boom in 2020, and the rapid adoption of NFTs last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, ETH, the original cryptocurrency itself, has consistently managed to maintain its second-highest rank by market cap among all coins throughout its history.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Case study: How Vitalik Buterin changed the perception of crypto?","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"case-study-how-vitalik-buterin-changed-the-perception-of-crypto","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2022-12-19 09:32:33","post_modified_gmt":"2022-12-19 09:32:33","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/78.47.81.216\/?p=562","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":697,"post_author":"7","post_date":"2022-12-21 15:39:17","post_date_gmt":"2022-12-21 15:39:17","post_content":"\n

Nowadays NFTs have become one of the hottest topics on social media platforms, and it is not surprising at all. Now there are quite a few people who believe that it is a waste of money and many enthusiasts see tokens as a profitable investment in the future. The popularity of NFTs has risen particularly sharply in recent months. The rapid rise in the price of rare tokens is fueled not only by great demand but also by a shortage of supply that can be purposefully controlled by the creators themselves.

That is why every advanced user tries to understand NFTs thoroughly, and it is not a wonder that new projects appear more and more often. Today we're going to talk to you about the NFT roadmap and why it's so useful to your development. This material will be useful both for beginners who only comprehend the basics of the world of crypto and NFT holders. You've probably heard of the NFT roadmap before, and most likely seen it, but just haven't delved into the subject further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting with the main definition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In general terms, the NFT roadmap is a file with development for an NFT project. It indicates achievable points, and the main steps with milestones, and gives a clear vision of what needs to be achieved and what needs to be done for that. In simple words, it is a visualization of the strategic development plan of a particular NFT project. Of course, the best NFT roadmap helps develop much faster and easier, because it attracts the attention of investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though an NFT roadmap is not a mandatory attribute, many teams and creators strive to make one and present it to collectors. And it's all well and good when the NFT roadmap is approached responsibly, but there are also reverse situations when these outlines are deliberately misleading, telling about the bright future of the NFT project when nothing like that is planned. This is why many holders treat the NFT roadmap ambiguously and with a certain amount of skepticism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does the NFT roadmap sample consist of?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A properly written NFT roadmap is immediately obvious, even to an inexperienced user. It usually contains milestones, marketing, and development plans. It is an ideal tool for investors to decide if your NFT project is worth consideration. Speaking generally, the following points make for a good and clear roadmap for users:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
