Having been in NFT space for a while now, I have witnessed the meteoric rise of many NFT projects and collections.

The NFT, crypto and blockchain markets are still in their infancy, so strong market data and signals and investments for a good NFT project can be difficult to obtain and analyze effectively, so information is often disseminated through word of mouth and social media posts.

Friends and family who weren’t keenly interested in the cryptic three-letter “NFT” (non-fungible token) last year are now suddenly looking for information on NFT with deep interest and excitement so they can join (and not miss) creatively and digitally. By) revolution

Public interest in early 2022 has grown significantly due to the increase in NFT and crypto adoption by the press and celebrities in 2021, as described in the articles. The vultureIts celebrities love NFT, soon you will too.

Once an NFT novice nonsense jargon (see NFTs fall prey to non-friendly terminology), a digital wallet (e.g. Metamask or Coinbase) and a few hip Oz collections, such as the Board App Yacht Club and CryptoPunks, are empowered and ready to dive.

Start with NFTs

I always get the first question, “But wait, now that I understand everything, which NFT should I buy?”

As an industry consultant and public figure, they naturally ask me. “It’s not financial advice.” And I reassure that here too. I am not a financial advisor and I have no control over the market or the future of the project. Like any new venture and market, there is a risk that it may not work.

I’m always happy to share what I’ve found, however, the golden rule of NFTs and Crypto is DYOR: Do your own research!

To support a recommendation, I usually equip my friends and family with some basic tools and tips to increase the size of a decent NFT project. This will include topics such as their team research, track history, setup, editing, social numbers and engagement, artwork, originality and rarity. After newcomers understand how to increase the size of an NFT project (and how to avoid bad or bogus projects), I recommend collecting NFTs that I have personally collected or been involved with at some point – where I already have some outstanding. Perseverance, and have a decent idea about the team, the roadmap and the structure.

Look for mid-level NFT projects

When collecting, it is best to look for mid-level projects, not low and not high. Getting into high visibility projects is usually impossible, off whitelist and extremely expensive. Winning over them seems difficult, in contrast, low-end projects do not gain traction or traction although they are much easier to enter. I have found my sweet spot with projects in the middle of the road, and there seems to be a lot of good risk and success in the middle.

Be skeptical

Some digital art collectors rely on social media statistics and discord numbers to evaluate a project, which can be fatally manipulated. I’ve seen projects use bots (robots / automated software) to impersonate more users or add computer-generated users. So it’s really important to go to length with your research, not just rely on huge numbers of conflicts.

While on the subject, be wary of conflicting scammers, be careful. Do not accept direct messages, many have been deceived by sophisticated hostlers. This is a great place to look for community, updates and roadmaps for a project, but be extremely careful about what you click and don’t contact anyone unless you’re in a 100% trusted community and don’t leave a direct message. Read the Crypto Wallet Hostel – all you need to know for tips on how to stay safe.

Expected return

In my humble experience in the NFT market, NFT purchases may not give 80% return, but usually decent returns are available on 10-20% of collected projects, and if they can be traded at the right price, they can generate substantial revenue. Returns compensation for loss of 80%. This is due to many factors including market demand, product quality and roadmap but not limited.

The beauty of the NFT market is that it is very much like the Internet when it was first established and the emerging technology companies jumped into a new industry with huge passion, innovation and drive. The NFT market is not overly saturated, most people in the world still do not know it exists, and there is huge room for improvement and new resources, so it is constantly growing and this makes it very exciting.

In the NFT space, I have found a place to combine all my accumulated skills, talents, knowledge and network and to excel in an emerging market where innovation, development, collaboration and influence are my second nature.

It was minted as an NFT and each individual part was minted by 50+ artists, enabling the project to achieve the objective of raising awareness while giving 100% profit for a good cause. I personally participated as an artist and as a friend of Alex and witnessed the $ 30,000 USD collection for NAMI on 72-hour NFTs for good publicity.

In my understanding and belief, the NFT market is much higher in its infancy, and although the first reaction to paying for a JPG or digital image may be shocking, digital assets and resources are already part of our present and future, and it is only that we devalue or underestimate their value. Leaning to do. The market is still young and therefore, no one knows exactly what will happen, which keeps things very exciting and presents a lot of opportunities, but that means you still can’t (or shouldn’t) re-mortgage your home to buy NFT.

Start small, and work your way up. I believe in long games and the advantage of being first in the market. Only time will tell which NFT and which investment will be most fruitful.
