In August, Rammstein lead singer Till Lindemann and footballer Lionel Messi announced the launch of non-fungible tokens. Why is NFT becoming so popular and is it worth to buy tokens of celebrities? Or is it more profitable to consider buying young artists’ tokens?<\/p>\n
Amid the recovery of the crypto market, there has been a surge in the popularity of non-fungible tokens (NFT). Trading volumes on the OpenSea NFT marketplace exceeded $828.6 million in early August, while back in July the figure was only $284.2 million and in June it was $125.2 million.<\/p>\n
In the first half of 2021, sales of non-fungible tokens reached a record $2.5 billion. In 2020, NFT sales were $95 million which is 26 times less.<\/p>\n
At the beginning of August, Lionel Messi announced the release of his own collection of NFT tokens “The Messiverse”, drawn by artist Bosslogic. The tokens will be unveiled on August 20 on the Ethernity Chain platform. The platform’s token has gone up in price by 90% since 4 August.<\/p>\n
However, the work of young artists is an equally interesting option for investment. For example, the following artists are recommended for November 2021:<\/p>\n
