Okay fellow creative, you’re interested in NFTs despite hearing all the catastrophic environmental damage, etc. etc.? Okay, first off, you might be better off reading about the nuance of it all (some blockchains and some NFTs suck up tons of power) but if you’re already on the #CleanNFT hype train of Tezos and want to get started, here you go.

This is not an exhaustive guide to Tezos or crypto in general, but a way for you to get started selling (and/or collecting) on these platforms. Also, I’m based in the US, so this is all coming from an American lens.

If you’re coming from somewhere else in the world, the main differences are going to be around the regulation surrounding how you get tez into your wallet in the first place. Even though exchanges and currency support is going to differ from country to country (or even state to state — I’m in California) the general concepts should be the same.

Here’s the walkthrough in order of how I’d recommend getting set up — if you’re already all set up in one section, feel free to jump ahead.
