How to Mint an NFT (Including Live Example)

This video guide walks through how-to mint an NFT through the minting of a real NFT collection titled ‘Morphs’.

Morphs is an avatar project for a future open-ended science fantasy universe built by a community of former Rarible DAO builders called ‘Playgrounds’. The collection is unique in that the collection has an unlimited supply, but a limited time period for minting, with minting ending on Feb. 28, 2022. Each Morph is free to mint, with participants only required to pay for gas fees, which have ranged between $25-$50 per mint.
