4 Benefits of NFTs for Creators and Artists
In a previous article, I wrote about how NFTs enable the market for digital collectibles. I've also covered how people's desire to collect in the digital world can be explained by all the same emotional and cultural factors that make us collect in the physical world. Digital collectibles are arguably so similar to physical ones at a fundamental level that there's no reason why they wouldn't become an integral part of our lives in the years to come. People wanting to truly own their digital assets just makes sense.

As I wrote about here, people collect all kinds of things for all kinds of reasons. Plenty of studies have been done on the emotional and cultural drivers behind our innate instinct to collect. These studies have never been done in a digital context though and for good reason. The digital collectibles market has really only existed in a few years and has only gotten some mainstream attention in the last year.
