Frequently Asked Questions

A non-fungible token (NFT) is a unique digital identifier that is recorded on a blockchain and is used to certify ownership and authenticity. It cannot be copied, substituted, or subdivided.

It is a technology that can be viewed as a decentralized global database, in which ownership can be assigned. In the blockchain, like on a "chain," information and transactions are added in chronological order, and as soon as a certain limit of entries is reached, they are sealed and a "block" is created. Once this has been digitally stored, a new block can be created. After each of these processes, the blocks are threaded onto a tightly connected chain. The blockchain is decentralized and is therefore not connected with states or banks; nevertheless, it is stored at the highest security standard through a global network of computers.

The term "minting" comes from real-world coin making. Gold and silver are "minted" into coins for circulation. In the crypto context, minting refers to the process of creating tokens out of digital assets. The tokens are then registered, so to speak, and the digital art becomes part of the blockchain. This makes them immutable, counterfeit-proof, and they can be put into circulation after this process.

The price of the NFT is Euro 1.850,- or the respective equivalent of Ethereum at the daily exchange rate (automatically updated and shown in the purchasing process).
