Alright, imagine you have a super rare Pokémon card or a limited-edition pair of sneakers. These things are unique, right? There’s only one exactly like it in the world. Now, take that idea and put it online. An NFT (Non-Fungible Token) is like a digital version of a rare item that you can own and prove it's yours, thanks to a technology called blockchain.

Think of the blockchain as a super secure, public notebook where every trade or purchase is written down forever. NFTs can be digital art, music, videos, game items, or even memes, and owning one is like holding the original signed copy. You can collect, sell, or show them off, just like you’d do with real-life collectibles.

And no, you can’t just copy and paste it. Owning an NFT is more about having the official version, not just a screenshot. 😉
