A unique digital identifier that cannot be copied, substituted, or subdivided, and that is used to certify authenticity and ownership.

Conteúdo pendente de tradução. Exibindo a versão em inglês.

Unlike Bitcoin (which is 'fungible' because one Bitcoin is identical to another), an NFT is one-of-a-kind. It is a digital certificate of ownership stored on a blockchain. It can represent digital art, music, collectible cards, or even physical real estate.

An [NFT](/pt/terms/nft) is like owning the original Mona Lisa painting, instead of just having a print or a photo of it. Anyone can take a picture of the painting, but only one person actually 'owns' it. An NFT is a digital receipt signed by the [blockchain](/pt/terms/blockchain) that says: 'This specific file is yours, and only yours.'

🤓 Expert Deep Dive

NFTs are typically created using standards like ERC-721 or ERC-1155 on Ethereum. They contain metadata (like a link to an image) that is stored off-chain (often on IPFS), while the ownership record is stored on-chain. This enables 'Provable Scarcity' in a world of digital abundance.
