Getting Started with NFT (a How-to)

Photo Moment - September 16, 2021

By now you've probably heard of NFT — a secure way to sell digital art. It's exciting, it's interesting, and it's confusing AF. With the help of a couple of experts, I've figured out how to do this, and I'm going to show you how!

Summary

I have minted a collection of fine art images, “The Sculpture Series”. I minted 100 editions of the first image, and will be giving away at least half of them before listing the rest for sale. Then images two through seven will be released in succession, each with ten editions available. And finally, the eighth image in the series has been minted with an edition of just one.
