NFTs, as a utility with a more concrete use case than collectibles, appear poised to expand beyond art collections. Because of new services such as non-escrow staking, there will be new ways to generate yield (NFT staking without the need to be included in an escrow contract). Furthermore, it appears that more people will use NFT technology for "proof-of-access" or authentication. When combined with mobile apps and payment services, this could be one of the most significant improvements for the DeFi market in the coming year.
The NFTs will also have more room to grow until the gaming sector is ready to take off. With the acceptance of blockchain technology, a thriving digital world powered by DeFi and NFTs will always exist. NFTs are now being used in all blockchain-related games.
