As a non-fungible token, NFT not only provides a new art form, but also can provide a new way for the copyright protection of current artworks. This paper will choose literature analyzing method and comparative analysis method. A detailed analysis will be given to explain the operation and related copyright protection of mainstream NFT trading platforms at home and abroad. Combined with the analysis of actual domestic NFT transactions and the situation of copyright protection, from the three levels of law, technology and management, this paper proposes countermeasures and suggestions for digital art copyright management and protection which based on NFT, that is, non-fungible tokens. We expect to analyze the mainstream NFT trading platforms at home and abroad comprehensively and objectively, summarize their characteristics and commonalities, enrich the application of NFT in the field of copyright protection, provide reference opinions for the construction of the domestic NFT copyright protection environment, and promote the development and prosperity of the cultural industry.
