FAQ

What are NFTs: Non Fungible Tokens

NFT stands for non-fungible token. In the most basic sense, a NFT is a way to store data on a blockchain* (such as Ethereum). 

Fungibility refers to an asset's ability to be exchanged for something else of equal value. An example of a fungible asset is currency: a US dollar, for example, can be swapped interchangeably for another. Non-fungible assets are unique and require more complex valuation: things like real estate or art. Each NFT then, is a unique item whose value is determined by multiple factors and whose ownership is validated via the blockchain. 

A common type of NFT is digital art. In this case, NFTs are often thought to be the work of art itself, but rather, the NFT is the underlying technology where the art resides. This technology has enabled digital artists to mint and sell uniquely verifiable works. Think of an NFT like the deed to a house, rather than the house itself. Just like the holder of a deed can prove that they are the owner of the house, an NFT holder can prove that they own the asset in question. 

When a buyer purchases an NFT, they are granted a legitimate ownership deed, embedded deep into the blockchain where the transactions are verified. Once the records are made, they cannot be changed or altered in any way, which making the transactions traceable, transparent and trusted. 

Why NFTs Matter to Nonprofit Organizations

Change is a constant in the world of nonprofit fundraising. In recent years, organizations have adjusted their donor strategies because of global disruptions such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Many nonprofits have also identified the need to embrace new technologies to connect with younger supporters. 

NFTs enable:

  • New revenue streams, new fundraising tools
  • Perpetual giving as royalties are reverted to creator even on secondary market sales
  • Traceability, transparency and security in all transactions 
  • Efficiency in fund deployment
  • Innovative community-building tool
  • Potential for donor anonymity

How Nonprofits Process Donations from the NFT Community

Any organization that wants to engage with NFT projects and collectors must first understand how to process the donations they receive. 

Cryptocurrencies can be a friction point for newcomers to the NFT space, so several marketplaces are now equipped to accept FIAT (‘standard’) currencies in addition to crypto payments. The platform facilitates the payment process and can either deliver the donations in the FIAT currency or exchange it to crypto. 

As such, for nonprofit organizations to receive direct charitable giving from the NFT community, accepting cryptocurrency donations is helpful, but not mandatory.

Tax regulations in some countries offer real advantages for donors and non profits giving/accepting donations in cryptocurrency. Accepting crypto donations is becoming more common as nonprofits realize the potential of this community as a donor base. Technology solution providers make it possible for nonprofits to fundraise multiple crypto assets, generate tax receipts for donors, and even embed donation widgets on their own websites to accept donations in cryptocurrency.

What is the blockchain

A blockchain is a distributed software network that functions both as a digital ledger and a mechanism enabling the secure transfer of assets without an intermediary. 

Just as the internet is a technology that facilitates the digital flow of information, blockchain is a technology that facilitates the digital exchange of units of value. Anything from currencies to land titles to votes can be tokenized, stored, and traced on a blockchain network.

In addition to the secure transfer of value, blockchain technology provides a permanent record of transactions and a single version of the truth – a network state that is fully transparent and displayed in real time for the benefit of all participants.
