 ## What are NFTs? {#what-are-nfts}
 
-NFTs are tokens that are individually unique. Each NFT has different properties (non-fungible) and is provably scarce. This is different from tokens such as ERC-20s where every token in a set is identical and has the same properties ('fungible'). You don't care which specific dollar bill you have in your wallet, because they are all identical and worth the same. However, you _do_ care which specific NFT you own, because they all have individual properties that distinguish them from others ('non-fungible').

-The uniqueness of each NFT enables tokenization of things like art, collectibles, or even real estate, where one specific unique NFT represents some specific unique real world or digital item. Ownership of an asset is secured by the Ethereum blockchain – no one can modify the record of ownership or copy/paste a new NFT into existence.

 ## The internet of assets {#internet-of-assets}
 
-NFTs and Ethereum solve some of the problems that exist on the internet today. As everything becomes more digital, there's a need to replicate the properties of physical items like scarcity, uniqueness, and proof of ownership in a way that isn't controlled by a central organization. For example, with NFTs, you can own a music mp3 that is not specific to one company's specific music app, or you can own a social media handle that you can sell or swap, but can't be arbitrarily taken away from you by a platform provider.

-## How do NFTs work? {#how-nfts-work}
-
-Like any token issued on Ethereum, NFTs are issued by a smart contract. The smart contract conforms to one of several NFT standards (commonly ERC-721 or ERC-1155) that define what functions the contract has. The contract can create ('mint') NFTs and assign them to a specific owner. Ownership is defined in the contract by mapping specific NFTs to specific addresses. The NFT has an ID and typically metadata associated with it that make the specific token unique.
-
-When someone creates or mints an NFT, they are really executing a function in the smart contract that assigns a specific NFT to their address. This information is stored in the contract's storage, which is part of the blockchain. The contract creator can write additional logic into the contract, for example limiting the total supply or defining a royalty to be paid to the creator each time a token is transferred.

 Or consider a ticket to a sporting event. Just as an organizer of an event can choose how many tickets to sell, the creator of an NFT can decide how many replicas exist. Sometimes these are exact replicas, such as 5000 General Admission tickets. Sometimes several are minted that are very similar, but each slightly different, such as a ticket with an assigned seat. These can be bought and sold peer-to-peer without paying ticket handlers and the buyer always with assurance of the ticket authenticity by checking the contract address.

+## How do NFTs work? {#how-nfts-work}
+
+NFTs, like any digital items on the Ethereum blockchain, are created through a special Ethereum based computer program called a "smart contract." These contracts follow certain rules, like the ERC-721 or ERC-1155 standards, which determine what the contract can do.
+
+The NFT smart contract can do a few key things:
+
+- **Create NFTs:** It can make new NFTs.
+- **Assign Ownership:** It keeps track of who owns which NFTs by linking them to specific Ethereum addresses.
+- **Give Each NFT an ID:** Each NFT has a number that makes it unique. Additionally, there's usually some information (metadata) attached to it, describing what the NFT represents.
+
+When someone "creates" or "mints" an NFT, they're basically telling the smart contract to give them ownership of a particular NFT. This information is securely and publicly stored in the blockchain.
+
+Furthermore, the creator of the contract can add extra rules. They might limit how many of a certain NFT can be made or decide that they should get a small royality fee whenever the NFT changes hands.

 ### NFT security {#nft-security}
 
 Ethereum's security comes from proof-of-stake. The system is designed to economically disincentivize malicious actions, making Ethereum tamper-proof. This is what makes NFTs possible. Once the block containing your NFT transaction becomes finalized it would cost an attacker millions of ETH to change it. Anyone running Ethereum software would immediately be able to detect dishonest tampering with an NFT, and the bad actor would be economically penalized and ejected.
