Fibo 101: How to Buy and Sell NFTs on Cardano NFT Marketplace Fibo

NFTs (non-fungible tokens) are a significant innovation for creators because they allow immediate peer-to-peer transactions of their digitized art using cryptocurrencies. 

This is why NFTs are revolutionary to artists and creators.

NFTs create a free market where buying and selling digital media is open, fast, and secure. 

At the core of this new economy is the act of buying and selling NFTs. 

Let’s discuss how to buy and sell these NFTs on Fibo’s Cardano NFT marketplace.

How to buy NFTs on Fibo

Step 1: Download Yoroi Wallet for Google Chrome Desktop and deposit Cardano (ADA)

The first and most crucial aspect is to download and set up Yoroi Wallet. 

In order to interact with Fibo’s NFT marketplace, the best choice is to have a desktop browser extension that allows you to directly interact with the Cardano network. 

This is known as a dApp Connector

Yoroi Wallet’s Google Chrome desktop version automatically has a dApp Connector within it. You don’t need to separately download a dApp Connector.
