I’ve seen that crypto.com allow the creation of nft, but I have no idea what’s the total cost.
If I take a screenshot of a doodle I make and put it there, it might cost me 10s of dollars to do that and then I need to probably hunt down people that want to buy it. It’s like creating a blog, you spend time writing and formatting and so on and then no one sees it.
You need to mint it on a blockchain
I’m actually looking into this to help an artist. She is a painter and usually sells through galleries, art stores, expositions, etc. but she is looking at other business models and even partial ownership. It’s very interesting to be honest and the technical aspect of it keeps me interested.

Anyone want to buy my NFTs? 
Opensea.io accepts everyone. To answer your question. I buy yours if you buy mine:

As you correctly realized marketing is 99% of a successful NFT collection.

For anyone that has bought and sold an NFT (and even crypto for that matter) how does it work with taxes in Switzerland? When does it become material that it needs to be reported? Is there anything published by the tax authorities?

Not sure yet how I’m going to report NFTs. Probably under “Wertschriftenverzeichnis” or “Bewegliches Vermögen” > “Übrige Vermögenswerte” (in ZH).
