In the early days of NFTs, a humorous yet misleading quip circulated: "Can't you just right-click and save an NFT?" The comment ignites a burst of laughter from crypto natives but is equally a solemn nod to the complexities of digital ownership. As NFTs have grown in popularity, their significance has evolved, and understanding has deepened. Today, NFTs are not just digital collectibles; they're recognised as a significant art form, gaining traction in prestigious arenas such as Sotheby’s and Christie’s Contemporary Art Auctions.

Collections like Bored Ape Yacht Club, CryptoPunks, and Doodles are not just digital art; they represent a new era of how we perceive value and ownership in the digital space and beyond. Simultaneously, the rapid ascent of NFTs has brought increased security concerns, with a surge in threats from hackers, phishing scams, and rug pulls. These developments highlight the critical need for robust protection of NFTs. Enter Safe, an onchain asset custody protocol that currently secures approximately $65 Billion in assets. Safe isn't just a response to the security dilemma; it's a proactive solution, a testament to the evolving needs of the NFT market.

Why you should #RightClickAndSafe

2023 was a challenging year in crypto, marked by substantial financial losses. At least $656 million was lost due to crypto hacks, scams, and rug pulls. These figures aren't just numbers; they are stark reminders of the vulnerabilities present in the digital asset space. The NFT market, though brimming with potential, mirrors the early automotive industry's "cars before seat belts" phase, as described by @punk6259— it possesses immense power and opportunity yet lacks the essential safety measures. Safe is the seatbelts you need for self-defence. Safe offers unparalleled security and flexibility for NFT storage. The Safe smart account allows for customisable conditions for asset movement, supporting ERC721 tokens. This capability makes it ideal for creating secure vaults for NFTs for years to come.

  • Customisable security

A Safe account lets you set bespoke conditions for asset movement.

  • Broad Support

In contrast, the $8.48 billion market cap reported by Forbes is derived from the aggregate values of all NFTs in a collection, using the floor price as the basis for this calculation. While this is not a direct apples-to-apples comparison, it serves as a reasonable proxy for assessing market impact.
