Some NFT enthusiasts have been running into an obstacle, they buy an NFT and it disappears. NFTs are vanishing across some blockchains; this happens when the NFT an individual thinks they are becoming the owner of does not actually \u2018live\u2019 on the blockchain. Instead, the creator of the NFT has the blockchain data that relates to the NFT point to an address on the internet where the NFT actually<\/em> lives. In other words, the NFT lives on somebody’s server, not the blockchain.<\/span><\/p>\n Unfortunately, servers and other internet-based content are not immutable. If someone decides that they do not like what is on the server, they can remove it from the server, making it impossible for the content stored within the server to be retrieved from the web\u2013which is why <\/span>some NFTs are vanishing<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n However, if you received the NFT from Twetch\u2019s airdrop on Easter, you will not run into the vanishing NFT problem\u2013Twetch\u2019s easter egg NFT image lives on the blockchain.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201c[When the NFT lives on the blockchain rather than exclusively on the web] the user has ownership and full control over their item, and the item lives on regardless of what happens to Twetch,\u201d said Billy Rose, the co-founder of Twetch.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cYou can\u2019t have true ownership of a digital item if it can be taken away from you by a centralized issuer.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Twetch has done what all NFT-blockchain issuers should have been doing in the first place\u2013storing the NFT or digital art being issued directly on the blockchain. The blockchain is immutable, so regardless of what happens to the website that allows you to view your NFT or digital art, you will always be the owner of the NFT at hand, and could create new ways to view the NFT if something did ever happen to the site or wallet where it could originally be viewed.<\/span><\/p>\n The Twetch egg<\/b><\/p>\n In the spirit of Easter, Twetch airdropped one Twetch egg to each Twetch user that has been active within the last 30 days.
