    Flow protocol

    Flow (FLOW) is a high-performance blockchain specifically for creating NFTs, massive crypto games, and apps. Unlike general-purpose blockchains such as Ethereum, Flow is built to efficiently scale for potentially billions of people interacting with NFTs like in-game items.

    Created by Dapper Labs, the same team behind NBA Top Shots and the infamous CryptoKitties blockchain game, Flow is a project in the right place at the right time. The NFT market is booming, and enormously popular social media platforms like TikTok and Twitter are rolling out NFT features.

    Teams across major sports leagues, ranging from the NBA and NFL to MotoGP and esports, have debuted NFT initiatives and collectibles for fans. So, with NFTs already reaching mainstream status, Flow seems bound to succeed.
