CryptoPunks Harvester Using Python

What are NFT's? NFTs, or Non-Fungible Tokens, are a type of digital asset that represents ownership or proof of authenticity of a unique item or piece of content using blockchain technology. Unlike cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, which are fungible and can be exchanged on a one-to-one basis (1 BTC is always equal to 1 BTC), NFTs are non-fungible, meaning each NFT has distinct characteristics that make it unique and irreplaceable. In this guide we are going to be…
