Problem

The invention of the non-fungible token (NFT) sets the security of the digital arts, which makes their value closer to physical arts and makes them more valuable to collect.

However, while some prestigious NFT artists can sell their digital artworks for millions of dollars, many junior NFT artists are still unknown. Their artworks couldn’t be understood, which made them struggle to meet their potential buyers.
