Somebody just bought one of my NFTs for $5 and is now selling it for $290,000!

A couple of weeks ago I came up with an idea for an NFT collection dubbed 'Birds of Belgrade' - because I like birds and I live in Belgrade. I used the crypto.com/NFT platform because it is, in my opinion, the easiest to use for beginners and one of...

Some people seem to think that NFTs are just overpriced and overcomplicated JPEGs. "Why should I pay for an image when I can just click *right button* *save* for free?", they keep asking. They're wrong, of course, but you can't really blame them beca...

I know a guy who says he doesn’t want bitcoin because “I can’t stake them” - that’s what he said - and so he’d rather own proof-of-stake coins and tokens he can stake. Fair enough. However, I firmly believe that nothing beats Bitcoin, and probably no...

I sold my first NFT!

6 Feb 2022 1 minute read 9 comments LeftFooted

I used an app called NFTgo to mint my first ever NFT on the Polygon network, it cost me around $30, and I immediately realised I'd just made a mistake. My NFT is available on OpenSea, which is great, but it doesn't make sense to spend money to create...
