NFTs are everywhere. Many people don’t really understand what NFTs are, but everyone is interested and wants to find out more.

NFT is an acronym for a non-fungible token. You may have seen crazy stories recently about unbelievable NFTs sales and auctions. In fact, it’s not uncommon for NFTs to sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars. 

“Everydays: The First 5000 Days,” an NFT by an artist named Beeple, sold for more than $69 million at Christie’s in 2021! 

You may or may not understand what a non-fungible token is, or why that frog meme constitutes as one, but there is no denying that they are here to stay.

Journalists, reporters, and marketers are writing about NFTs every day. Social media is chock-a-block with stories about NFTs and investors are keen to learn more about them. 

What to Know About NFTs 

  • NFTs (non-fungible tokens) are unique tokens that cannot be replicated. 
  • NFTs can represent real-world items like artwork and real estate, or anything digital.
  • “Tokenizing” these physical assets makes buying, selling, and trading them more efficient while reducing the probability of fraud.
  • Cryptocurrency is used to pay for NFTs. Users can send crypto that exists on a blockchain. Users and developers can write smart contracts that receive, hold, and send the currency, which comes into existence through the validation of transactions on its platform, through a process called mining.

As with anything new and emerging, people want to know more and want to be involved. That’s where NFT journalists come into the picture. So, we’ve rounded up a list of popular journalists featured in NFT magazines and publications.
