arstechnica-com-4270		Ars Technica’s non-fungible guide to NFTs | Ars Technica			.html	text/html	2507	158	70	Just as anyone can start printing their own line of Certificates of Authenticity (or anyone can start up their own cryptocurrency to try to be "the next Bitcoin"), anyone with just a little technical knowhow can start minting their own distinct NFTs. Etherscan currently lists over 9,600 distinct NFT contracts, each its own network of trust representing and tracking its own set of digital goods. That framework sets up the basic cryptographic system to track ownership of each individual token (by linking it to user-controlled digital wallets) and allow for secure, verified transfer on the blockchain. When NFT's are used to represent digital files (like GIFs or videos), however, those files usually aren't stored directly "on-chain" in the token itself.	./cache/arstechnica-com-4270.html	./txt/arstechnica-com-4270.txt
