TERMCAT chooses as the term of the week a concept that has fully entered digital culture

Since the concept is not easy to understand for the uninitiated, TERMCAT focuses on a term that is currently being talked about a lot: non-fungible cryptocurrency, more often referred to by the acronym NFT. It refers to crypto value which represents ownership of a unique digital asset and serves as a certificate of authenticity. A non-fungible crypto-value is linked to a real object, usually a digital artwork, by a unique identification code and is stored in a block chain (in English, blockchain).
