What makes a 'high quality' NFT, in your opinion or experience?
- next_xibalba 4y agoI sense a trap...
- smegsicle 4y agoi assume the implication is that successful/desirable nfts also tend to have a well-thought-out implementation, the union of which being hqnft
- gilleain 4y agoperhaps, but isn't the desirability of something due to its (high) quality? how can its quality be measured from its desirability? seems the wrong way around
- chrisco255 4y agoI am not talking about high quality art. That is fairly subjective. I am referring mainly to the smart contract itself. One should be able to audit the contract to understand the transfer mechanics. Most NFT contracts are forks of popular open source implementations of ERC721 such as OpenZeppelin's (https://docs.openzeppelin.com/contracts/4.x/erc721 https://docs.openzeppelin.com/contracts/4.x/erc721). You want to know things like max supply, mint mechanics, transfer mechanics, etc. And you want to be able to inspect the contract, such as this example: https://etherscan.io/token/0x1CB1A5e65610AEFF2551A50f76a87a7d3fB649C6#code https://etherscan.io/token/0x1CB1A5e65610AEFF2551A50f76a87a7...
- gilleain 4y agoI did not mention art :) Ok, sure so 'quality' here is literally just the technical implementation of this pointer to a thing. Good to know, thanks.
- chrisco255 4y agoAn open source contract that adheres to the ERC721 or ERC1155 standard. I'm indifferent to the metadata URI, but some collectors prefer metadata to be fully on-chain or IPFS based. There's trade-offs with each one, so it really depends.
