NFT in a Nutshell A non-fungible token, or NFT is a type of token on the blockchain that represents a unique digital asset: crypto-collectibles, gaming units, or even art pieces. Each NFT has unique characteristics that are permanent and unalterable, while creating verifiable digital scarcity. NFTs are hardly a new concept in the blockchain industry. The first NFT-like token was introduced by Coloured Coins, aka Bitcoin 2x, back in 2012. It was to be built on top of the Bitcoin network, but the most common example of an NFT is the ERC-721. Remember CryptoKitties? Yes, this famous Ethereum-based game used ERC-721 NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain to represent unique in-game assets. Why is NFT like a Planeswalker? Today, digital collectibles are trending in DeFi with gaming, art, and real-world asset tokenization leading the way. By adding gamification to the yield-farming process, NFTs promote user engagement and foster mass adoption. “The audience of crypto enthusiasts and gamers has always overlapped,” says Evgheny Turvinenko, CMO at EmiSwap. “So it’s natural that gamification has taken root so well in the world of decentralized finances.” AnRKey X and a new gaming m$sports genre The X startup pioneered gamifying liquidity mining via the concept of m$sports, or Money Sports. The first game to be released is called Battle Wave 2323, which will allow players to compete with their virtual armies to produce the highest annual percentage yield through gamified liquidity mining, NFT staking, and trading. AnRKey TokenFighter’s multiplayer NFT is another example of NFT use in the eSports industry. Being a P2P crypto-economic DeFi game, it has its non-transferable virtual currency, called Bytes, that is used to collect Fighter NFTs. These collectible cards can be exchanged, bought, and sold without any restrictions in the secondary market. The game is already live for the first community tests, though it does not include liquidity or NFT mining mechanics for now. In order to play and collect Token Fighter NFTs, players need to pay the Ethereum gas fees. TokenFighter KingSwap’s royal NFTs is a DeFi liquidity pool platform with its native token KING, which is given as a reward for liquidity mining. KING tokens can be used to purchase NFTs or to participate in KingSwap games.

Its native BAKE tokens can be farmed through staking or by providing liquidity to the pools and then staking the BLP liquidity pool tokens.
