1. Set-up a Crypto Wallet

The first and foremost step to enter the NFT market is to have your crypto wallet. Without a wallet, your digital artwork will not get connected to marketplaces. So if you don’t have a crypto wallet, it’s time to make one now.

You can open a crypto wallet on different platforms. However, the top and most trusted choices include- MataMask, Coinbase Wallet, Exodus, Ledger Nano S, Mycelium, among others.

Make sure that the crypto wallet you choose is compatible with all the token standards including ERC-20, ERC-998, among others. However, never give out your seed phrase to anyone both online or offline, except someone you trust.

After you create your crypto wallet, a door of opportunities opens up for you.
