Busan Blockchain Week (BWB) 2022, hosted by Busan Metropolitan City held at BEXCO for three days from October 27 to October 29th. With the theme of “Blockchain, City and Life”, as an extension of last year’s NFT Busan 2021, BWB 2022 will feature conferences for the advancement of the blockchain industry and provide a space to obtain insight as well as to share information.

Anndy Lian’s speech is on “Trends Shaping the Future of NFT”.

Lian is an all-rounded business strategist in Asia. He has provided advisory across a variety of industries for local, international, public listed companies and governments. He is an early blockchain adopter and experienced serial entrepreneur, book author, investor, board member and keynote speaker.

NFT: From Zero to Hero is his latest book. The book is a call to anyone and everyone excited about the prospect of the world of NFT. Bound by imagination only, the NFT space is still in its early days, and early adopters can be a “hero” in their search for new possibilities. The book is available on Amazon and Bybit. More than 8,000 copies were sold.

NFTs took 2021 by storm. With billions traded over NFTs and a strong community behind the technology, we’re seeing NFTs being adopted by industries as diverse as gaming, finance, art, and medicine.

NFT gaming and game-fi

This trend is obvious. At present, many successful game manufacturers in the traditional game industry want to get involved in NFTs.

NFT ticketing

NFT ticketing goes beyond this. The future of NFTs in ticketing offers opportunities for lifetime value, exclusive access, and extra incentives for buyers.

NFT fragments

Fractionalisation essentially breaks up an NFT into smaller pieces so people can purchase small parts of an expensive NFT.

Digital twin NFTs

Imagine this same type of record existing for physical items. It would completely change resale markets.

AI NFTs

Alongside blockchain, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the next major disruptor in tech. So it should be no surprise the two are being combined.

NFTs and health

With issues surrounding counterfeit vaccination passports and concerns about the vulnerabilities of centralised data storage of sensitive medical information, NFTs and the blockchain may well be integrated more and more into medicine and health in the years to come.

Growth amidst doubt

Although the popularity of NFTs is indeed declining, all walks of life are still accelerating their integration with NFTs.

Starting in the second half of 2021, many well-known brands have also begun to try NFTs, matching them with real objects and even designing their own metaverse. Obviously, the utility has become the first test for big brands in the metaverse field through NFTs.

NFT essentially provides brands with a new way to launch limited-edition products, and the resulting community and word-of-mouth communication will raise their share of voice compared to rival brands.

The future of NFTs

A number of countries are now actively working on regulatory frameworks for NFT assets, strengthening anti-fraud and anti-manipulation audits of projects, determining the business core of each platform, and solving financial security issues such as illegal fundraising and false fraud.

At the same time, major public chains are actively upgrading, expanding, and building their own ecological frameworks to provide underlying support for the production, confirmation, pricing, circulation, and traceability of NFT assets.

Nowadays, NFT financial tools are becoming more and more abundant, and the scale of financial derivatives is steadily increasing. The NFT industry is gradually exploring a development path suitable for blockchain assets.

“The future these NFT trends depict is an interesting one. While many people are concerned about the implications of the metaverse and the rise of AI, it’s a future full of possibilities. We are still early. Let’s build the ecosystem together.” Lian added.
