Introducing Dynamic NFTs⚡

  1. Introduction:

    • Venly proudly presents Dynamic NFTs, which allows creators and collectors to engage with digital assets dynamically and personally.
    • Dynamic NFTs transcend traditional non-fungible tokens, allowing the NFT to change or evolve over time.
    • This dynamic nature introduces a level of interactivity and uniqueness that sets them apart from static NFTs.

  2. Metadata Magic

    • Dynamic NFTs now support metadata updates on the token level.
    • Each minted NFT's metadata can be updated, added, and deleted individually, providing unprecedented customization.

  3. Token-Level Independence:

    • Token-type retains metadata defined during creation; changes at the token level do not impact the original token-type.

  4. Token-type Metadata

    • Modifying the metadata of the token-type after minting an NFT will not impact the already minted NFTs.
    • The changes will only be applied to newly minted NFTs under that specific token-type.

  5. Attribute Fusion

    • Users can dynamically alter the type, name, value, and maximum value of attributes.
    • Multiple attributes can be defined at both token-type and token levels.
    • The token attributes merge with the attributes defined on the token-type level.

  6. Properties & animationUrls

    • Properties, including Name, Description, External URL, Image, Background Color, support dynamic changes.
    • Properties defined on the token level override token-type properties.
    • animationUrls, presented as a single array, can be dynamically changed at the token level.
    • Changes to animationUrls on the token level override those defined on the token-type level.

  7. Industry-Wide Applications:

    • Dynamic Avatars: In a blockchain-based game, players may own dynamic NFT avatars that evolve based on in-game achievements, experience points, or time spent in the virtual world. The avatars could gain new features, accessories, or abilities as players progress.
    • Interactive Movie Posters: Movie studios release dynamic NFTs as limited-edition movie posters that react to user interactions. Fans might unlock hidden content, teasers, or exclusive behind-the-scenes footage by engaging with the NFT.
    • Changing Artwork: An artist creates an NFT with artwork that changes over time, revealing different scenes, colors, or styles at predefined intervals. Collectors can experience the evolving nature of the artwork as they hold the NFT.
