Before 2008, there was no single digital representation of traditional NFTs. So, they weren't standardized, so the NFT markets closed and were only open on platforms that issued and made a certain NFT.
When coloured coins were added to Bitcoin's blockchain, they were the first NFTs in blockchain development. Even though they were made to make Bitcoin transactions possible, their script language stores small amounts of data on the blockchain. This metadata can be used to show how to take care of assets.
On the other hand, CryptoPunks was the first NFT experiment based on the Ethereum blockchain. It was made by Larva Labs. It was made up of 10,000 "unique" punks that you could buy and keep. The punks can use digital wallets and markets because they "live" on the Ethereum network.
In 2017, CryptoKitties made NFTs popular on the Ethereum blockchain by letting people make digital cats and breed them with different pedigrees. This was the first project of its kind to set up a complicated system of rewards. It found that NFTs could be used to get people to do things. This made people more interested in auction contracts, which have become a popular way to price and buy non-financial assets in recent years.
Using blockchain technology to make NFTs better is cool because it has made their benefits and chances much bigger. With the help of the ERC-721 standard, there is now a standard way to show digital assets that can't be copied. ERC-721 is a pattern for smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain that is similar to the ERC-115 and ERC-998 standards. It gives a standard way to find out who owns an NFT and a standard way to "move" digital assets that can't be changed into something else.
Even though most of the action is happening on Ethereum right now, it's important to know that several NFT patterns are starting to show up on other blockchains. For instance, Mythical Games' dGoods is focused on using the EOS blockchain to make a cross-chain standard. Also, TRC-721, TRON's first NFT standard, was made public at the end of December 2020. With this standard in place, the Chinese blockchain should be able to use more apps based on distributed ledger technology and keep up with the growing NFT sector on Ethereum.
Since then, an NFT that is registered on a blockchain has become a "unique" asset that can't be changed or faked.
