This study examines the risk and return characteristics of the NFT-based startups listed on the cryptocurrency exchange. Our investigation is motivated by the recent surge in the NFT activity on the part of creators, investors, and traders. We begin by proposing a classification of the existing NFT-related projects that range from NFT blockchains to NFT DeFi. Next, we run the analysis and establish that NFTs: 1) earn high first-day returns; 2) yield prodigious returns both on the raw and risk-adjusted basis, roughly an order of magnitude higher than the return on bitcoin; 3) deliver positive and significant alpha and exhibit above-average beta. We also show that the NFT segment of the cryptocurrency market leads market recovery following the mid-2021 crash. In the final analysis of the paper, we find that NFT infrastructure integrated within existing blockchains substantially increase market valuations of the networks.
