NFT Artists
NFT artists create digital artistic creations or collectibles, encode these pieces into non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on blockchain platforms such as Ethereum, and auction them to prospective collectors in the emerging digital art industry. These creative individuals frequently use blockchain technology to create possession, limited availability, and authenticity for their digital artwork, revolutionizing the art world. Beeple, CryptoPunk creators, and many young talents exploring the frontiers of digital art are among the prominent NFT artists.
