Minting an NFT

Earlier this year I jumped on the NFT train.  As a beginner in the space I felt a bit overwhelmed.  My technical background helped, but I usually learn best by doing so I'm sharing a video of the mind process for and NFT from the You* collection by MyBff.

Always always always use official links - directly from the twitter bio of the project, or from the official links in the project discord.  Do not click on links from private messages.

  1. If the mint site is up earlier than the actual mint go-live, link your MetaMask to save you a bit of time when they make the nfts available.  (It's generally good practice to revoke any privileges after you've completed the mint- you never know when someone's site might get hacked)
  2. Make sure you have extra coin on hand for gas fees.  You must pay to have each transaction written to the blockchain.  
  3. Be patient while waiting for your transaction to get processed.  If its a popular mint, there might be a gas war and if you don't have enough extra coin in your wallet you might not be able to score an NFT.
  4. Verify your transaction on Etherscan

There is no sound on the video... sorry 😔
