what is an NFT?
NFT = non-fungible token
​
cryptographic assets (like digital art, gifs, tweets, music, videos, and more) on blockchain with unique identification codes and metadata that distinguish them from each other. source: investopedia.com
unlike cryptocurrencies (or fiat currency, like the US dollar), they cannot be traded or exchanged at equivalency.
​
you must purchase ETH with your fiat currency on an e-wallet in order to bid or buy an NFT.

for our episode 012. non-fungible talent: gabriel guerra bianchini on cuba & NFTs, we spoke with one of cuba's first NFT artists, gabriel guerra bianchini.
​
as one of the first artists to sell an NFT from cuba, gabriel has been using his ETH (crypto) to help pay the gas (the fee to list a piece for sale/auction) for other cuban artists - helping more and more folks mint (list for sale/auction) for their work!
​
we have joined him in creating an NFT, where a large portion of the proceeds will be used for the same purpose - to help artists on the island mint.
