A Step-by-Step Guide to Mint NFTs

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are cryptographic assets on a blockchain with unique identification codes and metadata that distinguish them from each other. This article introduces six steps to mint one’s own NFTs, let’s begin it.

 

 

1. Choose which NFT marketplace is suitable for you and obtain the cryptocurrency required to open and run your account.

 

2. Open or use your existing digital wallet to send the cryptocurrency.

 

If you’re using a marketplace powered by Ethereum blockchain, you can open an account with Metamask and create your NFT there. You can also connect Metamask to the most popular NFT marketplaces like OpenSea.

 

3. Create the digital file (i.e., a jpeg) compatible with the chosen marketplace.

 

4. Connect the digital wallet with some cryptocurrency included.

 

5. Consider adding a smart contract that could add value to your NFT.

 

It allows you to create your terms and conditions and include a physical item or anything else you may want to add.

 

6. Your artwork shaped into an NFT is now ready for sale.
