NFTs in my opinion are still the hottest type of cryptocurrency in the market right now, they serve a market that is very large and a market of passionate users like the gaming or art industry. That way, non fungible items backed on the blockchain will always be valuable and can be used for financial transactions in the Defi space.
The animal meme coins however shouldn't be taken too seriously, mist of them will die off just as fast as they were created
They are just in the early stage of this business. I believe NFT will boom in the coming months or years to come. Once these athletes, personalities, celebrities learn how to use the NFT concept to sell their works, it will be the new hype in the entertainment and sports industry. As we are still in the pandemic, and it will not go away anytime soon, this NFT idea will be a new way how to connect with their fans all around the globe. So yes, this will going to be hot in the next days to come.
