# NFT Overview

<figure><img src="/files/CrwfNDFxaMnn2Zp77uSN" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The fast-growing popularity of NFTs or Non-Fungible Tokens gave rise to many digital platforms such as Play2Earn games and NFT marketplaces.&#x20;

NFTs are digital assets that are unique and cannot be replaced, making it a valuable but highly speculative investment. It can be in the form of artwork, gaming asset, music, video or even an entire document.&#x20;

However, most, if not all, NFTs don't have any function or use outside of the game or marketplace they were created in.&#x20;

Ark of Dreams plans to change that by giving NFTs real-world value and use. Here are some ways Arkonians can use NFTs:&#x20;

* Get real-life perks from their favorite brands.&#x20;
* Buy products and services from businesses inside AoD.&#x20;
* Sell NFTs and earn money both inside AoD and in real life.&#x20;
* And much much more.
