> "Do you know which blockchain NFTs actually exist on?

If you can’t answer that, and you’re considering dabbling in NFTs (or already have), it’s time to take a step back, because you’re officially in over your head.

If you don’t know it’s a trick question, take about three steps back."

Did I miss something? NFT's do exist on a particular blockchain, they even go through the current ones in the article. Why is that a trick question?

Yeah I don't see it as a trick either, it's the most basic question to ask with a specific answer.
I think it depends on whether you're talking about the transaction containing the NFT metadata (on chain) or the actual data the NFT references in that metadata (ipfs, etc.)
