How to Start Using NFTs
NFTs: Currency that has a unique value and can’t be traded 1 for 1
Getting into NFTs is not as difficult as it seems! Follow these 5 steps to getting your first NFT:
Create a crypto wallet
- In the new internet, instead of creating a bunch of different accounts with usernames and passwords, you’ll be able to login and transact using one account, called a web3 wallet.
- We’ll be introducing MetaMask below, as it’s the most popular offering, however the concepts should remain the same for any wallet you choose.
Connect to a Marketplace
OpenSea is known as the ‘ebay’ of NFTs, meaning that it has everything, if you know what you want. Other marketplaces include Rarible and Looksrare
Find an NFT You Like
We personally recommend the Creative Blocks, and not just because we made it! It comes with access to exclusive content that teaches artists how to upgrade their work.
Buying Crypto
NFTs are bought with cryptocurrency, using your digital wallet and a crypto exchange. Coinbase, Binance, and Kraken are a few options for artists in the US.
When buying an NFT with crypto, make sure you’re buying the same currency that the NFT is being sold in.
Buy NFT using Cryptocurrency
Now comes the easy part! Go to the marketplace you chose in STEP 2 and find the NFT you chose in STEP 3. Now you just connect your wallet and buy the NFT.
Congratulations, if you followed along, you are now the owner of an exclusive piece of art and technology.
