NFT minting is the process of creating a non-fungible token, which is a unique digital asset that represents ownership of a specific item or piece of content, such as art, music, or collectibles. This process typically occurs on a blockchain, a decentralized digital ledger that ensures the authenticity and scarcity of the NFT. During minting, the digital file is uploaded to a platform that supports NFTs, and the necessary information, such as ownership details and metadata, is recorded on the blockchain. Once minted, the NFT can be bought, sold, or traded, allowing creators to monetize their work in new ways.
