What is a Soulbound NFT?
“Soulbound” NFTs have attracted attention recently, with Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin being one notable proponent. The concept of a soulbound NFT is derived from the online multiplayer game World of Warcraft. In the game, users are able to obtain high-level weapons and accessories that cannot be traded or exchanged but are instead tied to the user’s account, thus they are “soulbound.”
