An NFT (Non-Fungible Token) is a unique digital asset that exists on a blockchain, representing ownership of a specific item that cannot be replicated or substituted. Unlike cryptocurrencies which are fungible (one Bitcoin equals another Bitcoin), each NFT has distinct properties and metadata.

Editor

Victor Zhou is a technology founder and standards editor focused on digital identity and trust. He founded Namefi, edits Ethereum Improvement Proposals, and previously led smart-contract architecture work at Google Labs.

His work sits at the intersection of naming, ownership, and the systems people use to establish identity online. That perspective makes him especially interested in the way names move between personal meaning, public recognition, and digital infrastructure.

For Namefi, Victor edits and writes about domains as durable digital identity: how names become ownable onchain assets, how tokenization changes custody and trust, and what naming can learn from the systems people use to establish identity online.
