The World Of Dynamic NFTs
By Ruchi Sharma
Dynamic NFTs or dNFTs are a new type of non-fungible token with programmable and interactive features that enable development of digital assets. They can change and evolve over time while shaping into a tradable token.
In comparison to traditional NFTs, the dNFTs allow artists to deliver a more engaging experience for buyers and followers. A dynamic NFT is capable of reacting to external characteristics or variables such as user behavior, real-time market prices, time, weather, or other environmental data.
Dynamic NFTs are distinct in that they allow for updates and changes to the underlying data without modifying the NFT’s unique ID. This is achievable because of a smart contract that can automatically update the NFT’s information based on particular events or triggers.
There are several ways of drawing an NFT:
Example 1: Creators can mint NFTs of their social media postings on the Solana blockchain using Pearpop’s dynamic NFTs. The NFT rank rises as the post’s popularity rises which is arrived at by measuring additional information such as comments, shares, and likes.
Example 2: Consider an NFT representing an automobile. A static NFT would merely show the car in its current state, with no extra functionality. A dynamic NFT, on the other hand, might be designed to represent the car’s current mileage, maintenance history, and even its current market worth. This extra capability increases the NFT’s value by providing additional data and insights not available in a static NFT.
How does a Dynamic NFT function
Dynamic NFTs have rules that govern how they can evolve or alter over time. These rules are embedded within smart contracts, which automate operations such as modifying the NFT’s appearance, animations, or behavior based on specified circumstances.
While static NFTs are commonly issued using the ERC-721 token standard, dynamic NFTs employ the ERC-1155 standard, which allows for data storage in an editable format, making them “semi-fungible.”
Dynamic NFTs can be more than static representations of digital assets when using oracles. They have the potential to become interactive and responsive, enabling for new use cases and applications. When an oracle transmits external data to a smart contract, it causes a change in a dynamic NFT and updates the NFT’s metadata.
As a result, the NFT’s look and other attributes are updated. Smart contracts also govern how dynamic NFTs are purchased, sold, and traded, as well as how royalties are dispersed to their creators.
Users will require a crypto wallet that supports smart contracts in order to interact with dynamic NFTs. NFTs can be collected, sold, or traded on NFT marketplaces or used in decentralized applications (DApps) that enable dynamic NFT functionality.
