Best NFT coins list

In 2021, we saw explosive growth in the NFT market. But in addition to NFTs themselves, NFT-related cryptocurrencies have also posted significant gains. In this article, we'll tell you what NFT crypto coins are, how they differ from non-fungible tokens, and list the most well-known NFT cryptocurrencies out there.

What is a non-fungible token?

Non-fungible tokens (NFT) are unique digital assets stored on a blockchain, each of which is one of a kind and represents a real-world or digital object, such as a digital image, video, real estate, etc. NFTs are used as digital certificates, authenticating the objects they represent and assigning a specific set of rights in respect of those objects to the owners of the NFTs in question. You can read more about NFTs in one of our previous articles.

What is a whitelist in NFT terminology?

Because of the hype around NFT, new NFT projects tend to stir up a lot of excitement around themselves. As a result, there are too many people who want to buy the tokens before anyone else, and the number of tokens is limited. To solve this problem, NFT whitelists are used. The NFT whitelist is a list of users who get priority access to buy new tokens, participate in airdrops, and other benefits. To get whitelisted, you need to meet certain criteria, which you can find out about from the team of this NFT project, usually by joining their Discord group.

What are NFT cryptocurrencies?

Although NFT and cryptocurrencies are based on the same blockchain technology, they have some major differences. What does the term "NFT cryptocurrencies" mean in that case? Typically, the term is used to refer to tokens that, while not being non-fungible tokens, are used by various NFT platforms, most often as governance or utility tokens.
