NonFungible.com’s annual NFT Market Report shows NFT transactions worldwide jumped 21,350% to $17.6 billion in 2021 over $82.5 million in 2020. The report also found NFT traders earned over $5.4 billion in total profit through buying and selling NFTs.There is a lot of money to be made through NFT investments.
Many investors are aware of this huge opportunity but unsure what an NFT is and how to make money from them. This guide should help.
NFT DEFINED
- An NFT (non-fungible token) is a unique digital asset that cannot be duplicated.
- An NFT is a ‘one-of-one’ verified on the Ethereum blockchain
- NFTs can also be used as a ‘smart contract’ or utility allowing access to events, in-person memberships or in-game experiences
Popular NFTs seem to be simplistic digital renderings causing some to see them as nothing more than a fad, or the latest bubble. While investing in Art is always volatile, digital art and assets are only a fraction of the NFT marketplace
2021 NFT MARKETPLACE SALES (by class)
- Utilities $530.8 Million
- Metaverse $513.87 Million
- Art 2.8 Billion
- Gaming $5.18 Billion
- Collectibles $8.47 Billion
Direct NFT investment is still a bit sketchy and many investors prefer equities. Here are several public companies making a name for themselves in the NFT space.

NFT COLLECTIBLES LEAD SURGE IN MARKET

- NFTs solve this problem and have reignited fine art and collectibles investing.
- The NFT collectibles category generated more than $8.4 billion in sales.
Several companies have entered the business of NFT creation and B2C sales.
AMERICAN LEISURE HOLDINGS (OTCMKTS: AMLH) ACQUISITION IS A MAJOR INNOVATION IN NFT COLLECTIBLES
American Leisure Holdings (OTCMKTS:AMLH) announces it has added an innovative line of NFT collectibles to its portfolio through its acquisition of Baller Mixed Reality. This is the first blockchain-based acquisition AMLH has announced, but judging by its recent announcements, may not be the last.Baller drives revenue through the primary B2C sales of its NFTs, as well as fixed royalties on future sales of the NFTs on secondary C2C sales. The company also earns money on the sale and long-term appreciation of Baller utility tokens, corporate sponsorships, and B2B product placements.
AMLH CEO Adrian Patasar seemed to hint at more acquisitions in the recent release stating, “The acquisition of Baller Mixed Reality is a cornerstone investment for American Leisure Holdings, and an important part of our strategy to amass strategic holdings in the Web 3.0 sector.”
