African art has always been in the eyes of the world due to their uniqueness and affiliation to the dynamic culture and traditions of the African people. Artists and creators in Africa are beginning to experience the innovative power of NFT, thereby minting their artwork on the blockchain and making profit from them. These digital artworks that are encoded on the blockchain to become NFTs by African artists are known as African NFT art.
African NFT art are digital artworks which also have a specific name that is being used more recently called “crypto-art” because of the blockchain technology being used to mint, buy and sell non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The blockchain technology is used to mine cryptocurrencies as it is also used to prove ownerships of the NFTs. Hence the name “crypto-art”.
