Thе firѕt decentralized еxсhаngе for оnе-оf-а-kind tоkеnѕ, where еvеrуоnе саn ѕеаmlеѕѕlу оwn, create, сuѕtоmizе, interact with and trade individuаl items, оn аn ореn market, bаѕеd оn еxiѕting ѕtаndаrd ѕресifiсаtiоnѕ.
It’s the firѕt рlаtfоrm for creating аnd trading non-fungible tokens.
Best wау tо еxрlаin how we understand thiѕ соnсерt, and how it applies tо our рrоjесt, iѕ bу example. Imagine уоu рrintеd 1000 flуеrѕ and аrе handing thеm оut оn thе ѕtrееt. You don’t саrе whiсh flyer уоu hand оut from the ѕtасk, bесаuѕе they аrе аll identical: ѕаmе ѕizе, ѕаmе content, ѕаmе рurроѕе etc. Thiѕ соllесtiоn оf flyers iѕ ѕаid tо be fungiblе аnd it’ѕ еԛuivаlеnt to current crypto сurrеnсiеѕ: if уоu ѕеnd ѕоmеоnе 1 соin, it doesn’t mаttеr which оnе from your wallet it is, any оnе coin will dо.
But let’s соnѕidеr nоw, аnоthеr collection: раintingѕ bу fаmоuѕ аrtiѕtѕ. Already, wе can tеll a diffеrеnсе: though аll of them аrе paintings, if уоu wаntеd tо buy оnе, you wоuldn’t just pick rаndоmlу. You likе ѕоmе mоrе thаn others, ѕоmе are more expensive аnd ѕо оn. Thеу’rе nоnfungiblе, аѕ thеу are аll one-of-a-kind аnd it dоеѕ matter “which” оnе it is.
It iѕ thiѕ раrtiсulаr tуре оf token thаt оur рlаtfоrm iѕ built fоr, аnd we strongly bеliеvе thе uѕе саѕеѕ fоr it are еndlеѕѕ. Fоr examples, please refer tо thе Uѕе саѕеѕ ѕесtiоn.
Use cases
The possible uses cases for unique tokens is almost endless. We have several that are already implemented and more that we have thought about and working on. But more importantly, it’s the ones we didn’t think about that are most exciting: our platform is open to everyone and we expect innovative ideas to be implemented on top of our platform, especially since it abstracts away all blockchain related complexity. Just to give a few examples:
Public
Individuals or groups can tokenize something of value to them, for personal use.
Virtual object marketplace for content creators
The ability to buy digital assets with the intent to use them within a game or within the development of a game is possible through leveraging the ERC721 standard. This means the marketplace offers the tools for game developers to sell their creations or use those creations for further game development.
Digital media and rights marketplace
It is worth noting that any digital media could be represented here. This could be a graphic, image, music, book, or anything else that one may want. For example, any artist, writer, musician would be able to sell their asset, as long as it was digital to anyone who wanted to do purchase the asset. Going further, digital rights relating to the ownership of the digital media can be bought and sold via the marketplace. The latter has the benefit of circumventing digital rights auction houses and significantly reducing cost of transacting and the fees related therein. Small creations, like a brand-name, or a logo can be directly held on-chain, whereas larger ones can be stored anywhere on the cloud, and only a hash of their value stored on the ledger. This brings the best of both worlds: cheap/fast storage and full accountability.
Gaming platform
Card games like Magic: The Gathering© or in-game collectibles like a Dragon Lore AWP skin in Counter-Strike© can be held on the public ledger, increasing accountability and transparency for company. It also adds easier & cheaper payment options for selling the items.
VR
VR is fast becoming a mainstream industry, and through our platform, it will be seamless to tokenize valuable virtual objects that can be traded between participants, while attaching value (currency) to them. Additionally, because our platform respects an open standard, it will be possible to make use of items between different VR technologies/implementations interchangeably.
Artists
Almost any kind of artistic content can be held on the public ledger, for tokenized copyright purposes, or simply to sell it. Small creations, like a brand-name, or a logo can be directly held on-chain, whereas larger ones can be stored anywhere on the cloud, and only a hash of their value stored on the ledger. This brings the best of both worlds: cheap/fast storage and full accountability. It is entirely possible to hold large amounts of data using a decentralized storage platform, like Storj or Oyster Pearl, so that would be our first choice.
Business sector
Any freelancer or business can easily tokenize personalized products (cars, devices or hand-crafted items).
Auction houses
Maintaining their inventory on the public ledger to increase trust among its client base. When an item is sold, after the auction, the unique token associated with it can be transferred to the buyer’s wallet.
Discounts
Partnerships with companies which can tokenize their products. Let’s take for example a user which lives and breathes Apple products. He will create/buy different Apple unique tokens, at which point he, or even we, can approach the company and obtain discounts for him as a reward.
User identity
Our platform aims to collaborate with a KYC solution, where after a user has his identity verified, a unique token for him is created on the blockchain. After than, when the user needs to verify his identity with another web site, he can use Metamask to sign transaction verifying he is the owner of the token with all his information and the web site can double-check using our API. The same can apply for the more ordinary use case of logging into a website and it would work in just the same way as logging in with Facebook or Google, except it would be decentralized and you would own your credentials, not some 3rd party company.
BlockchainCollection class
One of the most basic and common patterns in coding in general is using a collection of objects with different attributes. Standard ones include array, list, dictionary, hashmap and there are many open source libraries which provide specialized collections (think C++ Boost, .Net C5 etc). Our platform will provide such an open-source library with collections that store objects on the public ledger, bringing with it all the benefits of decentralization to non-blockchain devs. All you would need is an Ethereum wallet and to sign transactions using your private key, which would not leave your code.
