Crust Network partners with RMRK in constructing the next-generation NFTs standard
We are very excited to announce that Crust Network is partnering with RMRK to provide multi replica IPFS storage for #nextgenNFTs, an initiative by RMRK upholding the next generation NFTs standards, on @RmrkApp.
About RMRK
RMRK (pronounced “remark”) is a set of NFT legos that give NFTs infinite extensibility, hosted on the Kusama blockchain, Polkadot’s canary network, without the need for parachains or smart contracts.
The “legos” refers to five wondering primitives — Nested NFTs, On-chain emotes, Multi-resource NFTs, Conditional rendering and NFTs-as-DAOs. Putting these legos together allows a user to create NFT systems of arbitrary complexity. Additionally, by leveraging this logic and Kusama’s multi-chain architecture, these NFTs are eternally liquid and forward-compatible with as yet unannounced projects, and seamlessly portable to any connected parachain.
The Next-Generation NFTs Standards
RMRK is working on a set of NFTs standards that describes the outlines of NFTs in the future. Currently, RMRK has completed a giant leap from its RMRK 1.0 standard to RMRK 2.0 standard, and the team are currently exploring a more pioneering RMRK 2.1 standard based on the 2.0 version.
In many ways, RMRK 1.0 is like any NFT standard you might be used to on Ethereum — a simple way to store references to multimedia. We augmented this with on-chain emotes, but did not go further.
RMRK 2.0 adds more functionality on top of RMRK 1.0. RMRK 2 introduces the concept of NFT legos: extremely simple primitive components of a standard that, when put together, can make an infinitely complex project which is still supported by any UI supporting the individual standards.
Crust Network’s Solutions to the Future NFTs Standards
Crust Network is essentially an IPFS incentive layer protocol and a substrate-based blockchain that builds a decentralized storage network of the whole brand new Web3.0 ecosystem. In this coming Web 3.0 future, Crust Network aims to provide evolving decentralized IPFS storage solutions to meet the ever-increasing demand from the Metaverse and NFTs ecosystems.
The RMRK 2.0 & 2.1 NFTs standards call for precise and workable solutions for data storage off-chain, especially when its multi-resource and changing/conditional outputs rendering features are put into real use. Except for joining and sponsoring RMRK’s recent hackathon to strength the partnership, Crust Network also eyes on a long-term solution that RMRK’s new NFTs standard will integrate as a native Web3.0 infrastructure.
