What Even is a (Non)-Fungible Token?

In Cardano, tokens have both a policy identifier and a name. When minting using any service provider on Cardano, you will need to specify a unique name in order for your newly created token to be a "true" NFT. If you use a quantity greater than 1 when minting, or you reuse the same asset name in the same collection, your token will be deemed a "fungible token".
