# NFTs on BlinkPlanet

## What is an NFT? <a href="#whatisnft" id="whatisnft"></a>

NFT stands for ‘Non-Fungible Token.’ The word ‘fungible’ is roughly translated to ‘replaceable,’ and ‘non-fungible’ indicates an item is non-replaceable. ‘Token’ means a digital asset.  So an NFT is a non-replaceable digital asset. It is a unique asset that cannot be exchanged or replaced with another item one-to-one. This means that each NFT is distinct.

One of the most common uses of NFTs is for digital collectables. These can include virtual trading cards, in-game items, and other collectable digital assets.&#x20;

NFTs can be used to represent digital art ownership, allowing artists to sell their work directly to collectors while also allowing collectors to verify the authenticity of their purchases. In addition, musicians can use NFTs to sell digital copies of their music and provide fans with exclusive experiences.
