While today’s most popular NFTs are image-based, pictures are just a fraction of what NFTs are capable of. At their core, NFTs (non-fungible tokens) are simply proofs of ownership written on a blockchain. These proofs of ownership represent an asset, digital or physical, and link it to an individual's blockchain address. The result is a publicly verifiable file, showing a certain thing owned by a certain person.

Today, we’re going to write our first Mirror articles and publish them as NFTs. Let’s go!
