Non Fungible Token Market Overview

A non-fungible token (NFT) is a financial security made up of digital data recorded in a distributed ledger called a blockchain. The blockchain records the ownership of an NFT, which can be transferred by the owner, allowing NFTs to be sold and exchanged. NFTs can be made by anyone and require little to no coding knowledge.  Digital data such as images, films, and audio are frequently referenced in NFTs. NFTs vary from fungible cryptocurrencies in that they are uniquely recognisable. The digital file that an NFT refers to determines its market worth. According to NFT proponents they provide a public certificate of authenticity or proof of ownership, but the legal rights that an NFT conveys can be ambiguous. The ownership of an NFT, as defined by the blockchain, has no intrinsic legal meaning and does not imply copyright, intellectual property rights, or other legal rights over the digital material it is connected with. An NFT does not block the production of NFTs that reference identical files, nor does it restrict the sharing or copying of its associated digital file. An NFT is a data unit that can be sold and exchanged and is recorded on a form of digital ledger known as a blockchain. The NFT can be linked to a specific digital or physical product, such as art, music, or sports highlights, as well as a permission to use the asset for a certain purpose.  In digital markets, an NFT (and, if applicable, the related licence to use, copy, or display the underlying asset) can be bought and sold.  The extralegal character of NFT trading frequently results in an informal transfer of ownership of the item with no legal basis for enforcement, and so often confers little more than status symbolism. The Non-Fungible Token Market size accounted for US$ 14.56 billion in 2020 and is estimated to be US$ 170.34 billion by 2030 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 28.2%.

Non Fungible Token Market Dynamics

Increasing transformation in gaming industries

One of the main reasons for the exponential rise in NFT demand is that NFTs have expanded their horizons beyond music, films, and sports to include other streams such as Metaverse and, in particular, gaming. Enjin was one of the first big gaming firms to integrate blockchain technology into its infrastructure, releasing ENJ, a gaming cryptocurrency that has been officially whitelisted for use in Japan, in 2017. Players can also buy, sell, and trade earned in-game assets products thanks to the introduction of Pplay-to-Earn (P2E). Games like Axie Infinity and Splinterlands, for example, allow users to convert rare in-game assets into NFT, and the buying and selling of these gaming-related asset transactions can quickly add up. For instance, According to DappRadar, on Aug 7, 8, and 9, 2021, Splinterlands alone generated almost 4 million transactions per day, while the Ethereum network as a whole generated an average of 1.2 million transactions per day. By transforming in-game assets into NFTs, gamers can generate cash from their in-game assets. According to Forbes, when Axie Infinity provided players an alternate source of money during the pandemic, it saw a boom in user growth in the Philippines. As a result, the gaming industry has established itself as a huge growth prospect for NFT, particularly the play-to-earn blockchain gaming model.

Copyright Issues

Currently, there is no specialised legal structure or laws in the NFT market to verify real ownership of an NFT and the related copyright evidence. There is a risk of duplication of legitimate works, such as photos, photographs, music pieces, and so on. Without the creator's permission, such replicated assets can be easily personalised and disseminated online. This can hamper NFT market baseline during forecast period. Moreover, NFTs are good for digital artists because they give them entire ownership of their work and allow them to profit from it.
