There’s currently a myriad of NFT minting platforms out there. Each has its own promising feature. Some are good, and some are downright useless. If you’re an artist looking to explore Web3 and leverage technology for your art, you may not know where to start. NEST® is here to save you from headaches and heartache. How? Read on!
Low barrier of entry
Blockchain is confusing. When you go on Google to learn about blockchain, Web3, or NFTs, you end up feeling overwhelmed. Seriously, what is “gas”? And what is “PFP”? It sounds like a new language (and coincidentally, they all sound like some version of a fart). In your heart of hearts, you know that it’s another avenue to explore as an artist. You understand that this will be the future and that creators like you have better earning potential in Web3.
What’s stopping most creators from diving into this world is that most NFT platforms aren’t easy enough for the mass. Creating wallets, storing seed phrases under the pressure of losing everything, getting cryptocurrencies, not knowing how to use their platform, and a ton of other inconveniences.
With NEST®, you won’t have to jump through unnecessary hoops. NEST® is a mobile application that is easy to download from both the Android and Apple app stores. Within just half a minute, you’re registered — all you need is your mobile phone!
For creating wallets, you do not need to write down or memorize this very intimidating thing called seed phrase — NEST® saves it on your device, the cloud, or both — encrypted by you. You can create multiple wallets across different chains and manage them all in one app. Most of all, you can mint NFTs using your credit card — no crypto knowledge needed!
The process is straightforward, and our app is designed with explorers like you in mind.
Bigger reach
So, you’ve minted your NFT. Now what? Surely, you’d want to uncover what you can do to reach buyers. Here’s what’s interesting: you can push your NFTs to different marketplaces — on NEST® or outside NEST®. You see, many platforms can’t do that — they aren’t interoperable. They can’t communicate with other chains; they are stuck in their confines.
Think of Etsy. You create stuff on Etsy, and you reach buyers who come to Etsy. Wouldn’t you want an opportunity to reach buyers who search on a different website? Imagine also reaching customers on Amazon, on Google. This ability to cast your net far and wide is something that NEST® brings to you.
For all the wallets you create across chains, you can connect them with existing dapps to blockchain infrastructures with WalletConnect features. NEST® acts like a Web3 passport, controlling and managing all your web3 assets in one place, anytime, anywhere.
NFTs created on NEST® are not limited to our platform only. We have switch chain functions for NFTs to unlock your work’s potential by leveraging the characteristics of different chains. And again, the NEST® app helps you track all your creations across networks, allowing you to manage them without the hassle of jumping on and off different chains. Your time is valuable; it shouldn’t be wasted on cumbersome tasks. Those pain in the ass? Leave them to us.
Art Protection
Forgeries have plagued the art industry for ages and still do so today. Blockchain technology has the power to decrease forgery cases through immutable provenance. But this protection for artists and creators remains a promise — until NEST®.
We have built an extensive traditional and digital art database with AI detection to prevent unauthorized reminting.
That’s a problem many digital artists face at this moment. People take their work and mint them on the blockchain for profit — without the artist’s consent. There are many stories of these artists reaching out to the platform and not receiving any support whatsoever. Their work is defiled repeatedly, and no one is there to help. With NEST®, artists can protect their work through personal signatures, authentication, and provenance. Our infrastructure tackles artists and creators’ long-existing problems of stolen art, copyright issues, and fraud.
So… How to Mint NFTs?
Here are the steps — it’s easy. After you have registered for an account:
1. Tap “Create NFT” at the bottom of the home page.
2. Upload your media file (photos, videos, or audio).
3. Fill in details like URL, categories, title, descriptions, signature, geolocation, tags, royalties, etc.
4. Nest will verify and scan your creation to prevent fraud and protect artists.
5. Pick the blockchain network and wallet for your NFT and settle the gas fee.
6. NEST® will generate a unique fingerprint, secure the file… voila! Your NFT is minted on the blockchain!
Technology always comes with difficulties in adoption issues like user experiences, education, entry barriers, etc. We believe that the power of Web3 is for everyone to enjoy and make use of.
