What You'll Learn

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are ""one-of-a-kind"" assets in the digital world that can be bought and sold like any other piece of property, but which have no tangible form of their own. The digital tokens can be thought of as certificates of ownership for virtual or physical assets. However, once you understand how NFTs work, you'll see there are additional use cases for this technology.

Minimum Entry Requirement

Participants should preferably have basic understanding of cryptocurrencies and blockchain (as per Digital Assets and Blockchain Technology course offered by SMU Academy), but it's not a necessity.
