collectibles, games and other industries.
 The influx of more users has expanded the market for
NFTs, with many NFTs selling at secondary prices
much higher than primary sales prices, in the first 4
months of 2021 the NTF trading volume is already
ten times what it was in 2020.
 Metaverse is a new technology derived from NFT,
which is a virtual 3D environment where users can
create a character of themselves to communicate or
interact with others.
 The development of metaverse can enrich the
experience of the user's online or social media
senses.
Most of NFTs are based on Ethereum blockchain,
each transaction pays a fee to the miner, so creating
and selling NFT will cost some money to start.
