STEEM CRAFT NFTs are active now, a view about what they are going to be

Hello everyone,

today, I want to announce that I have created a new NFT called CRAFT on Steem Engine.

These new CRAFT NFTs will be a new way for you to have collectibles that are going to be issued to participants of contests. Try to collect as many as you want and show your proud collection of badges and trophies to others directly in Minecraft in the future or on the Steem Engine Site.

Besides badges for your participation on contests, STEEM.CRAFT will give you specific goals that you can accomplish in the future within the game. Some might be easy, but there will be hard to solve challenges that also make sure that your hard earned achievements are worth something. You can then later sell your achievements and badges if you want. But some of them might be limited to a very limited amount of the same type.

Once we have together tested the new NFTs out and successfully implemented the new badges fully into the game, new stuff is going to get added. You will be able to purchase and resell NFTs to the players of your server or others and give them the ability to trade and also use the bought NFTs on other servers that also run STEEM.CRAFT. NFTs can do pretty much everything we want them to do in the game. Since there are rules on what is allowed and what is not, there are going to be only decorative NFTs that do not give any game play advantage but are a great way to show that you got a fancy taste with special hats, particles, emotes, special effects, visual gadgets and pets.

I'm also trying out to get NFT based furnitures in the distant future, this will allow you to create armor stand based furnitures in a special furniture generator in Minecraft and then sell these to players all around the world, which then can use your furnitures in the game. I have already made some testing, but I didn't look into how NFTs can be traded or exchanged. This could be great for people who like to design fancy stuff and earn something in return for it. As you may have seen, you can pretty much create anything you like using armor stands in Minecraft.

For now, there are four properties on the CRAFT NFT:

• badge (Boolean)
• item (Boolean)
• type (String)
• id (Number)

I messed up and set the id to a write and read value which isn't really good for making it special as it can change. For now, it is not necessary but it seems that I have to add a property for a read only id later on. For the badges, the type will be enough which is going to describe for what you get the badge. The reason for a separate badge and item Boolean is to easily distinguish and sort them later in a menu. There could come more which then makes it easy to add more Boolean values if necessary.

Anyway, thank you for reading my little post. If you want, you can follow me for upcoming contests or join the Discord server for more stuff on the Minecraft server join.skyroad.me and the STEEM.CRAFT project, there are going to be contests where you can earn those new NFT based badges.

Have a great week,
