As reported by CNBC, young investors are splurging on NFTs and digital assets for giveaways. With the NFT market on the rise, who can blame them?
So to help you find the perfect NFT gift for your loved one, we’ve put together a list of the best NFT gifts for the NFT enthusiast in your life. If you’re looking to get the most extravagant Valentine’s gift, look no further than this NFT Valentine’s gift guide.
Buy an NFT
So do you want to gift an NFT for Valentine’s Day? Excellent! Before we dive into digital gifting, let’s take a look at buying and transferring an NFT.
Create a digital wallet
The first step in your NFT gifting journey is to have a digital wallet. If you already have one, continue with step two. If not, it’s time to create your crypto wallet. This digital wallet will store any NFT you buy. There are two types of wallets: hot and cold. Active wallets are software wallets that connect to the Internet through your computer or phone and include MetaMask and Phantom. Cold wallets are hardware devices that keep your data offline, the most popular being Ledger. Also, for step-by-step instructions on how to create your crypto wallet, check out our guide on the best crypto wallets for buying and storing NFTs.
Buy an NFT
Once you have decided which NFT to buy, head to a marketplace to complete the transaction. There are many NFT markets, from the ever popular OpenSea to the fine art market SuperRare. Follow the specific market instructions on how to purchase your NFT. Some platforms accept fiat, while others may require you to pay in cryptocurrency. However, make sure you only buy from legitimate sources to keep your funds and wallet safe.
Gift an NFT
If you have made it this far, you have successfully purchased the NFT gift. Now, in order to send the NFT to someone else, you will need their wallet address. If you want the gift to remain a surprise, wait until they receive it before asking for their wallet address. You can print a photo of the NFT you purchased and put it inside a card or print the NFT and hang it on a wall. Then, when you’re ready, ask the recipient for their wallet address. Be sure to double check the address, as once you send the NFT, you can’t get it back.
Finally, give yourself a pat on the back for giving a unique and special Valentine’s Day gift!
