NFTs are becoming massively popular this 2021 with the world of blockchain rising to popularity.
While previously a taboo, cryptocurrency and blockchain has now been the hot topic among a lot of people online. With the rise in popularity and with some famous individuals dabbling in it, NFT has also started gaining the spotlight.
NFT digital art
NFT or non-fungible-token is something that a person, the maker or the artist, puts up on the blockchain and sells the rights for sometimes massive amounts of cash. Most of the NFTs that people are putting up are art related but there are actually a few NFTs that are not.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been quite open over the years about his fondness with cryptocurrency and just recently, he even teased an NFT himself.
The mother of Elon Musk's latest child, the popstar Grimes, has also recently delved into NFT selling a total of a massive $6 million for the artwork she sold as NFTs online, according to the report by The Verge.
NFT not art?
There are also other iconic sales in the whole NFT realm as Twitter's Jack Dorsey actually recently sold the first tweet ever as an NFT and gained a massive $2.9 million out of the single sale. According to CNBC, the profits that were gained from the NFT sale went to charity.
This shows just how wild the world of NFT can be.
Just recently, one of the active NFT twitter accounts, Wall Street Beans, has just tweeted out what could be a brand new NFT trend. The tweet called people who are now collecting NFTs to check out a brand new NFT collection.
Basically, it is supposed to be a modern artistic take on CryptoPunks.

AI generated NFT
The thing about this collection and what makes it different from the rest is that everything is AI-generated.
The tweet also noted that there are only 1000 of them minted and that each one is unique. With the new AI generated NFTs, could this change the world of NFTs where artists might no longer have to do anything at all?
AI generated NFTs show just how random and how creative the world of blockchain actually is. While originally thought of as NFT art, NFT in general has shown itself to be a whole new thing where other things like tweets can be sold., but the effect of AI generated NFTs to NFTs in general is still unknown as of the moment.
The list goes on and on and since NFT is still relatively new to the spotlight, there's really no telling what other possible NFTs could pop up in the future.
The NFTs can be seen on opensea and it shows what AI is capable of doing especially when it comes to the NFT world. While there has definitely been a lot of firsts in the NFT world, the AI-generated NFTs is clearly something NFT collectors might want to check out.
