The Top-Selling NFT Artists to Collect in 2022

In the digital age, art has shifted from physical to virtual. With this shift, museums have yet to feature NFT artists on their walls. And while a few of these NFT artist’s work is being displayed online, most of it is only accessible through blockchain wallets and decentralized applications (DAPPs). The top-selling NFT artist is Beeple

NFTs are unique items that can be bought or sold like any other type of asset or currency on the internet. They are also called crypto-collectibles by some experts because they come in many forms including pictures, videos, 3D models and more. The one thing all these types of tokens share is that each item has its own set price; there are no two identical items.
