Editors who violate any listed restrictions may be blocked by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.
An editor must be aware before they can be sanctioned.

With respect to any reverting restrictions:

Edits made solely to enforce any clearly established consensus are exempt from all edit-warring restrictions. In order to be considered "clearly established" the consensus must be proven by prior talk-page discussion.
Edits made which remove or otherwise change any material placed by clearly established consensus, without first obtaining consensus to do so, may be treated in the same manner as clear vandalism.
Clear vandalism of any origin may be reverted without restriction.
Reverts of edits made by anonymous (IP) editors that are not vandalism are exempt from the 1RR but are subject to the usual rules on edit warring. If you are in doubt, contact an administrator for assistance.

If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it here on this talk page first. Remember: When in doubt, don't revert!

NFT History - ERC-721

I added a set of subsections to the History section of the article that introduced significantly more focus on ERC-721. It is credited with introducing NFTs in a foundational manner for widespread adoption, even though use-cases existed prior. Its significance in the history of NFTs is just too substantial to not give it a thorough treatment, omitting just leaves the larger story incomplete. I did integrate a few sentences and claims into my subsections.

There’s also evidence from credible and reputable sources which I’ve cited that indicate the term “NFT” and its definition has its origins in the blockchain nomenclature directly from the ERC-721 paper published in 2018, and that the word’s popularity directly emerged from the success of blockchain game CryptoKitties’ using it.

I essentially re-wrote, expanded on and integrated the mentions of Curio Cards, CryptoPunks, Rare Pepes CryptoKitties into a more cohesive story. Notably, Rare Pepes was NOT launched alongside the other projects mentioned nor ERC-721 as it happened a year prior; I also included some context around the Counterparty Protocol that powered these Bitcoin NFTs which themselves have a significant place in the history of NFTs (it should probably be expanded on later).

ERC-721’s lead author William Entriken is also notable and worth mentioning given his pivotal role in moving the standard to a final published state, governing the process over deciding that the name “NFT” be used in the final paper and getting other projects and stakeholders to agree to adopt the standard.

For my footnotes, I use bulleted list citations to stack multiple sources that either complement each other over supporting different aspects of a statement or simply support the same aspect and add veracity by having multiple sources agree.

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Please remove this sentence:

The trading of NFTs in 2021 increased to $17 billion over just $82 million in the previous year.

and replace it with this:

NFT trading increased from US$82 million in 2020 to US$17 billion in 2021.

Chronological order is generally better than the reverse. Also, there are many $ currencies. The source relies on another source that labels its $ figures as USD. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 23:24, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Update the article of the history of NFTs and in popular culture as there is still news coverage of this feature as of 2024. Take a look at this site:

Semi-protected edit request on 1 March 2024 - Adoption of NFT by conventional artist

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

In examples for use cases in art it is worth mentioning that internationally renowned artist Erwin Wurm released a short looping video of a red Porsche 911 that transforms into a "Fat Car" (a signature piece of Wurm) as NFT. He was one of the first and few traditional artists to use NFTs as a means to distribute his art in collaboration with Gallerie König (Berlin).[1] 2A01:599:107:2F41:B05D:AD74:9A12:B2E2 (talk) 06:30, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why, exactly is it worth mentioning? While

reliable source, and that article seems very shallow. Grayfell (talk) 09:06, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply
