Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) has been under the radar for the longest time, other than when cryptokitties jammed the Ethereum network.
The initial impression of NFTs is just a nice to have collectible, but if you look deep enough NFT can actually lead the industry a long way.
The most interesting concept of NFT at the moment is in the traditional gaming industry, all the characters, items, skins, equipments and skills you own in one game can only be used within that game itself.
But with NFT, all these collections that you have could potentially be transferable and usable in other games as well. One significant difference is the money you spent in one game will not go to waste, while the other risk that are taken off is if the game developers does not want to support the game anymore, your collections can still be used in other games.
At the moment, gaming is the largest potential for NFT, but lets not exclude any possibilities of it being used in other industries.
That's why NFT is so popular right now for crypto players who like games, it's a very good improvement done by NFT today, so the concept of refinement is a reason for people to try to use NFT now and in the future.
Moreover, people who like games, this can actually help them in developing their interests and potential to play the game, thus the game can be enjoyed and they receive income, the result is not wasting time on this game.
