First of all, we need to understand that NFT is essential items that can be collected. Like a painting, rather than a typical token which has lots of incentives associated with it to increase buyer demand.
Therefore, valuing NFT is like valuing a real-life precious item; whoever feels it has a price, will pay that price.
Example: There are a lot of abstract paintings that are worth a few thousand dollars. Very few people understand what they mean, for example, but people still buy them.
Speaking of issuance standards, usually on the Ethereum blockchain, tokens are popular in ERC-20. But in the NFT, a lot of standards are adopted, the most prominent of which is ERC-721.
A recently improved standard is ERC-1155, which allows single contracts to contain fungible and non-fungible tokens, opening up a whole new range of possibilities.
Like other tokens, NFT can be stored in a personal wallet, typically a Trust Wallet. It should be noted that NFT cannot be copied or transformed without the owner's permission - even by the NFT publisher.

You've heard of no-loss lottery. Now, get ready for no-loss stable coins! This week, we discussed $ALCX, @AlchemixFi, ft interview with @scupytrooples!
Deposit DAI into the system to borrow alUSD
Borrow up to 50% of the DAI collateral
Deposited DAI is used to generate yield
The yield is used to pay off the 50% alUSD borrowed
Why is it a no-loss stable coin?
Both assets are correlated
You can always trade alUSD for DAI
And they move in the same direction
During this period, it goes into this pool called Mempool. There, everyone can see that "hey, Lisa is going to buy 100 ETH. It is not executed yet."
The risk? Because this is public, bots can come in to pre-trade. They are called flashbots. The basically front-run your trade. They execute the trade before you.
In HEGIC you just have one asset let's say ETH. You add liquidity into the pool and what we want to do is to get all these little smaller guys with some capital put them all together.
With Uniswap people can trade and exchange so if I have ETH and I want to change it for USDC or if I’ve USDC and want to change it to ETH.
