NFT Project Development

What are NFTs and How do they work?

We empower creators worldwide to enter the NFT market while you just provide us with design elements. We are a team of developers and innovators focused on delivering the highest quality solutions. We have developed our own NFT generator to create unique assets. You design, we develop. Our approach is an end-to-end solution where we provide all the technology requirements for you to achieve your goals.

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are a type of programmable deeds of ownership to an asset based on blockchain technology. Such a digital deed gives its owner the sole authority to utilise, sell, and transfer the asset's ownership rights as defined by their private key signature. These privileges might include resale, physical redemption, digital services, financial rewards, royaltees or other types of rights. An NFT does not contain an asset in question but rather a programmable record of ownership and provenance with an inbuilt connection to the asset location. NFTs are driving innovation in blockchain adoption. While it may seem as pointless speculation over collectibles such as pixelated punks and bored apes, NFTs are actually the bridge into fintech innovation. Unlike more established assets in blockchain technology such as Bitcoin (BTC), NFTs can now be used to represent assets beyond what is on-chain. While assets like BTC are inseparable from their defined presentation, an NFT can break from the chain by representing an asset stored elsewhere. As an example, think of NFTs the same way a deed represents a house without actually being a house. This brings a plethora of new possibilities. We could say this isn't only a blockchain innovation but a shift in how blockchains are understood and used for ownership and representation. While many share doubts and fear of considering digital tokens as ownership over other assets, it is a definite shift that marks a milestone in blockchain innovation.

How we work

Smart contract development process

The development of the smart contract goes through several phases. These ensure that the business requirements are correctly defined and secured by the technology. This is our thought process:

Phase 1

Define business logic and requirements

We sit together and define your requirements in detail. To name a few: How many NFT(s) do you want to create? Do you have your own designs? What features do you look for, maybe Royaltees? What blockchain technology do you have in mind, if any? Where do you want to auction them?

Phase 2

Design smart contract's architecture

Once the business logic has been determined, our team will design the smart contracts, depending on the requirements that can be an ERC-721 or an ERC-1155. This serves as the blueprint during the development process.

Phase 3

Develop the smart contract

After we have a sign-off, our team will generate the code-base for the smart contract, including all requirements that the external auditor can easily process the smart-contract with all relevant tests and documentation. This step also includes unit testing to determine if the contract performs as designed.

Phase 4

Internal audit

An internal audit via a local blockchain and via the testnet is performed. The audit checks if the contract functions as intended and meets all security standards. After that, the smart contract(s) can be sent to the external auditor to review the code-base. Of course, we will work with the external auditor to ensure fixing of any found bugs.

Phase 5

Deployment on the blockchain

We support you with the deployment on the marketplace on which it will operate. This includes a step by step guide where we explain how the ownership is transferred. For example, it can be transferred to a multi-sig with Gnosis or OpenZeppelin as well as interaction with SDK(s) such as from Opensea to use functionality like lazy-minting.

ADDITIONAL

More complex smart contracts

Complex contracts include Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAO) and Application Logic Contracts (ALC). Here, we can also help. Otherwise, you can of course check out our open-source code-base in our GitHub repository.
