# What is an NFT?

A **non-fungible token is a unit of data stored on a blockchain**, that certifies a digital asset to be unique and therefore not interchangeable. It means that NFTs are unique. They **cannot be duplicated or replaced** - only one token can exist. Ethereum allows users to easily store, create and send NFT tokens, therefore the **Ethereum network** is the market leader.

NFTs can be used to represent items such as photos, videos, audio, and other types of digital files. NFTs are frequently used to sell a wide range of virtual collectibles, including NBA virtual trading cards, music, digital images, video clips, and even virtual real estate in a virtual world.\
\
In this case, **NFT technology allows us to create and store your Partnership as NFT tokens that will be able to be sold**, **gifted**, or **exchanged to other Etereum wallet users** through third-party NFT marketplace like Opensea.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.polyflip.io/polyflip-nft/what-is-an-nft.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
