NFTs seem like something intimidating for some people. If you’re one of them, then we got your back!
NFTs can really be anything from art, picture, song, or even text. NFTs are a way of storing a file on the blockchain; it ensures that the item is unique and shows ownership.
Creating A Crypto Wallet Account
The first step is to create a cryptocurrency wallet on any NFT marketplace for creating your NFT. For example, let’s take Metamask, and it’s one of the most widely used and accessible. Coinbase wallet is also an alternative.
You will be given a 12-word ‘seed phrase’ when creating your wallet account. It will act as your security code.
Set up A Account On An NFT Marketplace
The next step is to make an account on an NFT marketplace. The approach to creating an account is pretty much the same for any marketplace. It requires you to add a username, photo, bio, etc.
After creating your account, link your crypto wallet to your NFT marketplace account. This ensures that your NFTs will appear in your wallet, and all transactions can be easily completed.
You can also personalize your NFT marketplace account, by adding a banner and linking your socials to the account.
Adding details to your account makes your art more visible.
Select Free Minting
After creating your art or deciding what you want comes the next step, which is to decide which the type and value of NFT you’re creating, i.e., Single to create a one-off unique NFT or Multiple to mint a series of NFTs to create a collection.
Decide the price, add your name and description, and also ensure that you switch Free Minting to ‘On’.
The NFT Is Minted For Free
After creating your NFT, post about it to your social as soon as possible. You can link the new NFT directly to social media platforms such as Twitter, and Facebook, from within the NFT marketplace.
You might have understood by now that minting an NFT is not that hard. However, with the perks of minting an NFT for free, some cons are attached to it.
NFT marketplaces make the normal NFTs more visible. However, as stated above, promoting your NFTs on your social is always a good idea.
