Do you want to know the best NFT projects you can invest in this year? We’ve got the right list for you. NFTs have revolutionized the way we buy and appreciate digital art. Non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, are digital assets representing real-world objects in the digital realm. NFTs are commonly art, music, game items, collectibles, real estate, and videos. Ownership of NFTs is passed online, usually involving cryptocurrency transactions. Although NFTs were founded in 2014, its popularity skyrocketed only in the past few years.
Today, statistics show that the NFT market is now worth more than $40 billion. NFT sales also grew by 131 times in the span of one year, between 2020 and 2021. The most expensive NFT at the moment is priced at an outstanding $91.8 million. These numbers show that NFTs are here to make an economic impact, and they are here to stay.

NFTs today are not mere items you can stock on a shelf. NFTs now involve gaming, trading, minting, and many others. Several metaverse games offer unique NFTs for players. Several crypto influencers and newsletters have also projected NFTs’ continued growth in the upcoming years.
Of course, NFTs are not too good to be true. There are downsides to it, such as sudden shifts in value and rarity, and volatility of cryptocurrency. This is why it’s important to know which projects are trusted, tried, and tested.
On this list, we curated the top NFT projects you may read on, observe, and purchase, including projects which are upcoming and those which are already-established. Let’s have a look!
