In this episode of Crypto, Explained, Ali unpacks NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, to explain how they establish digital ownership, why each one is unique, and how blockchain keeps transfers secure and transparent. The episode covers NFTs uses from art and gaming to access, and real-world assets (RWA's).
We also explore how understanding NFTs helps listeners approach digital assets with clarity, knowing what they are actually buying, what rights come with them, and how these tools can be used meaningfully.
