No. This is not a Bored Ape (Bored Ape Yacht Club aka BAYC). This is actually some random NFT I won on twitter from someone I follow. It’s from the Colorful Ape Club collection, the floor price (fp) is about .054 ETH right now (approx $160).

Whats an NFT?

NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token. I know that’s not a great definition for most, so let’s take a look at the definition provided on the Merriam-Webster site. Here’s a screenshot of the definition provided below.

Enough with the boring stuff…let’s see more!

Blockchains that I’ve purchased NFTs on. So far.

(In no particular order)

  • Ethereum
  • Polygon
  • Wax
  • Solana
  • Ronin
  • Flow
  • BSC

There are so so many more out there, I see even HIVE has some NFTs now. Anyways, these are just the ones I’ve had a chance to interact and purchase on. There’s already more chains I want to explore.

So. NFTs and investing in them can be fun. However, just like cryptocurrency, you often have to time the market. Unlike cryptocurrency, you can assess a project that has doxxed founders, a strong team, great art, lots of hype (seemingly) on twitter and discord, and then mint rolls around and it drops.

There are NFT projects dropping almost daily (if not daily), and lots of ways to win and lose your investment (especially when trying to flip). If you’re in it strictly for the art or collectible, then honestly none of this will or should matter (assuming you don’t care about resale value).

Nothing I say is investment advice. Always always do your own research and I always suggest to not invest anything that you are not honestly willing to lose.

I’m just going to share some NFTs I’ve gotten into, and their current outcome. I’m fairly new at this myself. I’ve been in this space for over a year but am really only starting to invest now. I’ve been watching through association as my husband has been steadily trading and investing in NFTs for quite a while, but now I want to. Now, I’m learning and finding my gut, and I can tell you, it’s not always pretty. So, let’s see those little NFTs that I thought were good to buy, but so far have plummeted in value (from when u bought).

That’s all you get for today. There has to be something left for next time. It’s funny that you believe there’s only one more. HAHAHA.

Now, don’t get me wrong…I love NFTs and I have had a decent time with some, you will certainly learn about my wins too. There’s so many factors when it comes to these things, and then there’s even stuff outside of all of these things (malicious rugpullers). Sometimes things also just take time.

I hope you enjoyed this little share. Feel free to ask any questions or just talk to me about this stuff.

Oh…you may be asking…why did I buy that NFT above?

  1. A friend recommended it to me originally because it had been performing well on a leaderboard
  2. I acted quickly because I wanted to get my first Ethereum NFT and I took the friends advice
  3. I chose this particular one because it was cute and it had some features I liked

NOTE I still like this. It is super cute and pink. My sister even made a mousepad (although I use a Magic Trackpad, so I don’t need one) of this cute little thing.

Was it a bad investment? Yeah. I’m not really showing it off or taking part in the community at all. It’s just a cute NFT that doesn’t have a very high value.

I hoped you enjoyed reading this. Thanks for checking me out.

Do you own any NFTs? Feel free to share if you do, if you don’t, why, why not, or any other details that are fun.

Until next time.

I am new to NFT and started to mint my first collection recently. I don't know anything about investing in it and I am only doing it as a venue to promote my art.

Congrats on minting your first collection! It’s a big step to do that. Feel free to share a link, I’d love to see them. Thanks for checking my post out. The art scene is huge and immensely popular right now in the NFT space, so it’s a good place to be, to create, connect, and explore.

Thank you! There are so many things I don't know about and it is quite intimidating. I do traditional art and have a very basic knowledge of digital art. There is no way I can compete with those who mass-produced their NFTs 😅 Here's my first collection: https://opensea.io/collection/stencil-2017 . I am working on my second collection: https://coloringiship.com/oli-kawaii-verse/ 😊

This is awesome! I like how you written it, I want to be just like you in posts 😊
