Abstract
Blockchain is a new but quickly growing technology in the world, which was developed by a pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009 as the cryptocurrency Bitcoin. Blockchain was un-hackable but now, due to use of quantum computers, it is possible to tamper with blockchain. As a counter to this, the researchers have come up with quantum blockchain using the principles of quantum cryptography. Today we see that the technology has given birth to many new technologies as well. One of its examples is non-fungible tokens (NFTs). These are a new sort of blockchain-based token that is unique and indivisible. They were first created in 2014. These are blockchain-based virtual assets. Since early 2021, the phenomena and its marketplaces have increased dramatically.

An Introductory Study to Quantum Programming
Quantum entanglement comes into play when there is more than one particle is participating in the computation. When the quantum particles are in an entangled state, they are linked in the strongest possible way even if they are far apart from each other. once they are entangled, an invisible link is generated among them irrespective of how far apart they are. The entanglement among these quantum particles gives rise to the enormous number of possibilities of states for quantum communication.
