“We chose to launch NFTs because the existing market demand for special NFT properties that comprise originality is now developing at a quickly accelerating pace,” Firstenberg also stated.
He continued, “We are quite excited to watch how this innovation will evolve, and we are certain that NFTs as new media is a sustainable innovation.” We’ll be looking into how the industry evaluates the NFTs and determine the amount of originality to be contained within an NFT so that it has actual independent value.”
As indicated by a series of auctions scheduled by various corporations for next year, NFT auctions are quickly becoming a popular method of selling NFTs.
