$Apple (AAPL.US)$ @moomoo Event @Hown @ZSawWhen I first entered the workforce, the first money I saved was spent on buying myself an iPad as a birthday gift. I even engraved my name and birthday on it.

Columns What is the 'digital art' NFT?
In the previous article, we talked about the definition and history of blockchain. This time, let's focus on the interesting NFT.
Introduction to NFT
A non-fungible token (NFT) is a unit of data stored on a digital ledger, called a blockchain, that certifies a digital asset to be unique and therefore not interchangeable. NFTs can be used to represent items such as photos, videos, audio, and other types of digital files. While copies of these digital items are available for anyone to obtain, NFTs are tracked on blockchains to provide the owner with a proof of ownership that is separate from copyright.

What is Dogecoin?
Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency created by software engineers Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer on December 8, 2013.
The Dogecoin was intended as a fun alternative to Bitcoin with uses of crowdfunding social causes or giving online tips.
The main difference between Dogecoin and Bitcoin is that the infinite number of Dogecoins can be produced.
The Dogefather
Thanks to Elon Musk, Dogecoin is up more than 800% over the last month. This self-proclaimed "CEO of Dogecoin" never hides his love of Dogecoin, dubbing it "the people's crypto".
Many believe that there is a strong correlation between Musk's tweets and the coin's price movements.
He has talked up the coin over the past few months, including the announcement on May 9 that it'll be used to pay for a new moon mission launched by his SpaceX rocket company next year.
What happened?
According to CoinMarketCap, last week's surge pushed Dogecoin's market cap to over $70bn, making it become the fourth-most valued coin.
However, after Musk called Dogecoin a "hustle" on Saturday Night Live, Dogecoin lost more than a third of its price on Sunday.
On Wednesday, Elon Musk tweeted again, saying Tesla will stop using Bitcoin as a form of payment over concerns of the cryptocurrency's impact on fossil fuels.
The announcement led the price of Bitcoin to drop over 13%, and Dogecoin plumme...

Bitcoin, the world's first cryptocurrency, now has a market cap of around $1 trillion, which only took it 12 years. While tech stocks, including $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$ , $Apple (AAPL.US)$ , $Amazon (AMZN.US)$ , and $Alphabet-A (GOOGL.US)$ , took about 33 years to surpass a $1 trillion market cap on average.
Now, Bitcoin sits around $54,000, up from $8,800 one year ago. The market has 2 distinct views on the highly volatile cryptocurrency.
