Innovations in NFT Space
In today’s NFT news, there is significant buzz in the crypto world regarding an experimental ‘token+NFT’ standard, as well as the successful sell-out of the Quantum Cats collection and the integration of X2Y2 Pro platform with the game-optimized Oasys.
Pandora’s ERC-404 Standard
The Pandora project launched a new, experimental token standard called ERC-404, which combines the popular ERC-20 and ERC-721. Created for creators and developers, ERC-404 aims to integrate ERC-20 and ERC-721 in a robust manner, allowing for native liquidity and fractionalization. The Pandora collection comprises 10,000 Replicants enabled by ERC-404, generative avatars attached to a PANDORA token. The project emphasizes that the standard is experimental and unaudited, although they have conducted some testing. Despite this, questions have arisen about the specifics and existence of ERC-404. Other collections have also begun experimenting with this new standard.
Quantum Cats Sell Out
The Taproot Wizards’ Bitcoin Ordinals NFT sale has concluded successfully, with the Quantum Cats collection selling out. Some cats may be available for “adoption” on the Magic Eden marketplace. The team refunded 19.3 BTC that were overpaid during the mint, with a total volume of 299.7843 BTC ($13.4 million) and 2,700 owners in total.
X2Y2 Pro Integrates with Oasys
The multi-chain NFT platform X2Y2 Pro has joined the ecosystem of the game-optimized blockchain Oasys. It has integrated into Oasys’ gaming-centric, EVM-compatible blockchain, particularly its Layer-2 Verses, including Geso Verse, DM2 Verse, and HOME Verse. This integration aims to bring numerous advantages to gamers and developers, providing enhanced capabilities for trading and lending in-game NFTs.
