# Who’s influencing NFTs?

### The 100 Influencers who could shape the emerging NFT ecosystem.

In our own way, **each of us is unique and special.**

The digital assets we create, our awards and achievements, our Drivers Licenses, Passports and Certificates — these things define who we are.

More recently that list has been growing:

- A sword in a game
- My online identities
- A token that represents a unit of my time
- A CryptoKitty feline friend
- The Virtual Wallets on my phone
- Shares in a work of art
- Marketplaces
- Exchanges

**NFTs **or Non-Fungible Tokens are a new way of creating unique digital assets that we control, facilitated by the Ethereum blockchain.

The Ethereum blockchain is ubiquitous and decentralized — no monopoly or government controls it.

Below are the men and women who are building the NFT ecosystem of tools, apps, platforms and information resources.

They are laying the bricks to build new cathedrals.

They are Influencers with an appetite for change.

They are entrepreneurs, designers, collaborators, engineers, scientists, communicators, lawyers and regulators.

They are shaping the next wave of virtual extensions of ourselves (on our terms).

Some will rise up, and replace the current tech leaders.

I wrote software in the 80s when micro computers replaced typewriters (my 19 yr old son told me when he was 11 that “a typewriter is what they used in the olden days to send emails”).

I was at Burning Man festival in 2009 just after the Global Financial Crisis — when large timber structures representing banks were built and burnt down.

In the last 20 years, oil, motor vehicle and Telco giants have been replaced by Information and Tech companies:

As early adopters and influencers we see things that others don’t, we create new jigsaws from pieces spread across the world.

Please enjoy the summary below of the new individuals and startups shaping the NFT ecosystem.

### The NFT space is just getting started.

NFTs (Non-fungible Tokens) are blockchain assets that are designed to be unique.

Ethereum’s ERC-721 protocol has become the standard for Distributed applications (Dapps) that provide content on the blockchain.

The best-known use of NFTs has been the creation of adorable Kitty Collectibles, by [Benny Giang](https://twitter.com/BennyGiang) and the CryptoKitties team. We’ve also seen NFTs used to trade NYC street art ([Streetcuts.co](http://streetcuts.co/) led by Jeffrey Caldwell) and even create new worlds, like Decentraland — the brainchild of [Esteban Ordano](https://twitter.com/eordano)and [Ari Meilich](https://twitter.com/arimeilich).

The Hackathon at [NIFTY Hong Kong](https://niftyhacks.devpost.com/submissions) was won by [Last of Ours](https://devpost.com/software/last-of-ours), a project that promised to use NFTs to help bring people together to protect the world’s endangered animals.

[minting](https://www.nft.kred/blog/whos-influencing-nfts#minting)

### How to Mint

1. Choose an NFT Template or start with your media

Use NFT Templates to quickly create NFTs with built-in utilities and functionality.

2. Name your NFT and add a Description

Your NFT's metadata will be displayed on its profile and any other web3 applications that support compatible NFT metadata standards.

3. Choose your Blockchain and Smart Contract

Mint to NFT.Kred's shared Smart Contract when getting started. Once you're ready, deploy your own dedicated Smart Contract with the name and symbol of your choice.

4. Choose a Quantity

NFTs can be minted as a unique 1-of-1, or in a numbered Batch where each NFT shares common details and media but carry unique serial numbers (token IDs).

5. Pre-Mint your NFTs or list to Mint-on-Demand

- **Pre-Minted NFTs** are minted instantly. The creator pays for the minting costs upfront and the NFTs are minted into the creator's wallet.
- **Mint-on-Demand NFTs** are minted only when purchased. The buyer pays minting costs via a fee taken from the sale price at the time of the purchase, and the NFTs are minted into the buyer's wallet.
