One way to learn about new tech like Web3, Metaverse and Crypto are to jump all the way in. It’s like following the white rabbit down the “Alice in Wonderland” hole. Why pay for an expensive MBA? If you put a little bit of money aside (gas fees can be expensive) and invest in yourself.

While today’s most popular NFTs are image-based like you see on opeansea, pictures are just a fraction of what NFTs are capable of. At their core, NFTs (non-fungible tokens) are simply proofs of ownership written on a blockchain. These proofs of ownership represent an asset, digital or physical, and link it to an individual's blockchain address. The result is a publicly verifiable file, showing a certain thing owned by a certain person.

So, can an article be an NFT? Absolutely!

At first glance, Mirror may just look like a web3 platform for publishing and monetizing articles — something like a blockchain-based Medium or Substack. But under the hood, Mirror is a powerful tool for creating content and building communities. It gives you everything you need for minting NFTs, crowdfunding, splitting proceeds from sales, and even minting ERC20 tokens to distribute to new community members.

Today, I’m going to learn how to write my first Mirror article and publish it as an NFT.

The proof is in the reading and the NFT ;-)
