NFTs are digital media representations that are securely stored as blockchain-based records and that can be purchased with cryptocurrencies. The original work is worth more than the postcard you purchased from the museum, much like the priceless nature of Matisse or Van Gogh, and the same logic applies to NFTs and their copyrights.
Influencers and celebrities aren’t far behind in the NFT race. The NFT collections of well-known celebrities like Snoop Dogg, Paris Hilton, Eminem, Bella Hadid, etc. have been released for their fans. The way we think about ownership and digital marketing has changed as a result of NFTs. Unsurprisingly, the NFT industry has been growing faster than ever, and the non-fungible tokens craze hasn’t spared Indian celebrities.
