So yesterday, after being on the other end of producing NFTs I bought my first one. The process to do so is further down but first I want to talk about the exciting part (to me anyway), which is what i bought!
My good friend @stayten produced his first NFT, a music piece and cover that is amazing to listen to and even more fun to own.
We were chatting and he mentioned he had finally NFTed, of course, I had to own it. I will need verification but I may have set a record for the quickest time between minting and purchase!
And besides being an amazing item to own I think I made a great choice as the rest of the 5 edition set are already sold! And to some very discerning buyers, won't name drop but go have a quick look if you are so inclined - https://nftshowroom.com/stayten/gallery
What I did not expect is the pride I felt in owning this, to be a part of someone's journey and own a piece of that history while not depriving the artist of other uses is a really amazing feeling. Ok no more fan hiving I promise that's it for me. Below is the how for those interested in getting involved.
