30 minutesNFT Minting on Ergo (Non-Fungible EIP-4)
Mint a unique NFT with on-chain metadata and image hash
问题
You need to create a unique, non-fungible digital asset with provable scarcity and verifiable authenticity.
解决方案
NFTs on Ergo are tokens with quantity = 1. The unique token ID combined with EIP-4 metadata registers provides authenticity. Content hash in R8 enables verification against the actual file.
工作原理
- 1Create transaction with unique first input (ensures unique token ID)
- 2First output mints token with amount = 1 (non-fungible)
- 3R4-R6: Name, description, decimals (0 for NFT)
- 4R7: Asset type (0x0e01 for NFT picture, 0x0e02 for audio, etc.)
- 5R8: SHA-256 hash of the content file
- 6R9: Content URL (IPFS, Arweave, or other permanent storage)
代码示例
{
// NFT = token with quantity 1
// EIP-4 Extended Register Layout for NFTs:
// R4: Name (UTF-8 string)
// R5: Description (UTF-8 string)
// R6: Decimals = 0 (always for NFT)
// R7: Asset type byte:
// 0x01 = picture (PNG/JPG/GIF/WEBP)
// 0x02 = audio (MP3/WAV/OGG)
// 0x03 = video (MP4/WEBM)
// 0x04 = 3D model (GLB/GLTF)
// R8: SHA-256 hash of content (for verification)
// R9: Content URL (ipfs://... or ar://...)
// Only creator can mint
