Özet
NFTs, which are gradually expanding the volume of trade in the crypto currency markets, are a virtual investment tool that serves to digitally certify works of art.These digital assets, which bring their users in “uniqueness” by encrypting works their using the blockchain technology use, have brought up Walter Benjamin's argument about works of art in the reproduction process again. Benjamin mentioned the influence of the technologies of the period in which he was engaged on works of art. He suggested that the artwork reproduced by means of technology has lost its special atmosphere (aura). NFT, which is a technology of the digital world today, seems to have the qualities that can restore the uniqueness and aura that Benjamin claims is now lost.
