Claim NFT
Snic Barnes NFTs serve as digital certificates of authenticity for original artwork purchased through the artist. Each NFT is linked to a corresponding physical artwork and confirms the uniqueness and ownership of the artwork.
What is an NFT?
Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) are unique digital items with blockchain-managed ownership. Examples include collectibles, game items, digital art, event tickets, domain names, and ownership records for physical assets.
​
How are NFTs connected to blockchain technology?
NFTs operate on blockchain technology, making it possible to verify their ownership and easily transfer them from one owner to the next. Ethereum, Solana, and Klaytn are three examples of blockchains that store NFTs.
​
A blockchain is a digitally distributed ledger that records transactions and information across a decentralized network. Most blockchains are verified by many nodes (read: computers), which is why you’ll hear them described as “decentralized.” Different blockchains may verify their transactions using different methods but ultimately operate similarly.
​
Blockchain technology allows users to easily transfer, collect, and verify their NFTs. The provenance of an NFT is one of its biggest advantages.
What is a cryptocurrency wallet?
A wallet allows collectors to receive, send, and spend NFTs and cryptocurrencies. Cyrptocurrency wallets come in many forms, but at their core they all provide a way to protect secret information that gives you control over your digital assets. Wallets store a public key (wallet address) and private keys needed to sign NFT and cryptocurrency transactions.
​
Why do I need a cryptocurrency wallet?
Before you can mint, buy, or receive any NFT, you have to connect to your wallet. Wallets like Phantom, MetaMask, Trust Wallet, and Coinbase are provided by unaffiliated third parties. We will deliver NFTs that correspond to Artwork purchased from Snic Barnes directly to your wallet. PLEASE TAKE THE UTMOST CARE TO PROTECT AND PRESERVE YOUR WALLET’S CREDENTIALS—WE CANNOT RECOVER NFTS IF YOU LOSE ACCESS TO YOUR WALLET.

Will I need to pay gas fees to receive my Snic Barnes NFT?
In web3, the term “gas fee” refers to the payment needed to execute transactions on the blockchain. At this time, Snic Barnes NFTs are first minted by the artist and transferred to the collector. Depending on which third party wallet you are using, you may incur fees. No gas fees were required to receive an NFT when using a Phantom wallet as of December 2023.
