- Aw. You're all such talented artists!

I'm gonna put this cute little guy on the corkboard.

- This isn't kid's stuff, Mom!

We're making NFTs.

- NFTs? So, like digital art, right?

- [snorts] Hardly. Though, in this case, yes.

- NFTs stands for non-fungible token.

That means it's unique.

- Ah! So, if I buy an NFT,

I'm the only one who has that image.

- No. - But I own the original?

- Meesh, Mom! No one wants the original!

[fire whooshes]

- So if I were to buy an NFT,

what would I actually own?

- A concept.

In the form of a digital token stored on the blockchain.

[echoing, slowing] Blockchain. Blockchain. Block...

Like this collection.
