Homework task: Describe one popular project that uses NFT
What is NFT?
First, let's briefly define NFT. We can define NFT as digital assets that are unique in the blockchain. So what are these digital assets? Virtual game contents, images etc. collectibles are many digital assets that are unique. For example, consider Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, Van Gogh's Starry Night in digital media.
NFT operates on the ERC-721 and ERC-1155 protocols, not the classical ERC-20 protocol of ethereum. These 2 protocols are used when creating NFTs. So what do these protocols mean? ERC-721 is the protocol used for the creation of non-fungible assets. While tokens in the ERC-20 protocol can be split, those in ERC-721 cannot. This makes them unique. The ERC-1155 protocol is the protocol that allows the implementation of the shopping phase. It is a kind of protocol that complements the ERC-721.
Blockchain-based global fantasy football game: SORARE
Sorare is a blockchain-based and collectible fantasy football game. Football fans compete by bringing together favorite players. If you are successful in this game, you can earn money. The fact that the game is in real time is interesting for fans. In other words, you collect points according to the performances of the players in the team you created in real football matches.
This game project is still new. It has already become one of the most popular NFT projects. Why wouldn't it be popular? There are more than 4 billion football fans around the world. In addition, there is a giant game company such as Ubisoft among those who support this project. All player cards available on Sorare are licensed by their clubs. In other words, we can say that the clubs also provided some kind of support to this project.
Although it is a new game, I think that the sale of Ronaldo card for 300 thousand dollars is an indicator that it will attract more players and develop further.

How can I buy a card?
If you click on "new signings" from the market section on the left, you can make offers to players and buy them within a certain period of time. Think like auction. The highest bidder gets. If you click on "Transfer market", you can buy the player according to the price set by another manager.
Conclusion
Football, the largest sports activity in the world, also has started to come to the fore in the crypto world with its billions of audiences. Whether it is big licensing clubs(real madrid, barcelona, juventus etc.) or companies(ubisoft) that support the project, this shows that the project can go further. As a football enthusiast, I learned about this project thanks to this assignment.
