# Overview *“Born too late to explore the world, born too early to explore the universe, born just in time to explore the blockchain.” - some dude on the internet"* Gone are the days when nobody knew about Bitcoin or Ethereum. In fact, the mass adoption of cryptocurrencies is already underway. Even the mainstream media can no longer ignore the buzz surrounding Web 3.0 and NFTs. NFTs rose to prominence with a couple of successful projects that gained worldwide fame. However, it’s clear that NFTs are still in their infancy as they are often misunderstood and misrepresented as being expensive JPEGs or overpriced digital art. This view misses the important aspects of non-fungible tokens; as NFTs have proved to have the ability to be the foundation of ownership in the digital world, with endless applications in Finance, Gaming, Entertainment and Community in Web3, and even granting users real world utility, giving new meaning to digital ownership. NFT utilities can take many forms and Ember allows users to finally leverage this endless potential. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
