GhostMarket is the most powerful cross-chain Non-Fungible Token (NFT) marketplace in the world! It sports a comprehensive selection of features wrapped in a gorgeous and intuitive user interface. GhostMarket features fully trustless NFT trading facilitated by smart contracts on each integrated blockchain. One of its most powerful and innovative features is the uMint NFT Factory. This next generation self minting NFT Factory allows artists and developers to create and sell NFTs powered by Smart NFT technology, allowing their creations to take on a whole new dimension.

Why NFT — and what is a Smart NFT?

Non-Fungible Tokens, or NFTs, have the potential to revolutionize the way artists, musicians and game developers distribute content. NFTs differ from traditional blockchain assets like bitcoin because each NFT is unique, rare and authentic. These characteristics make NFTs attractive to collectors as they can represent various forms of media — for example:

  • Digital artwork
  • An in-game item
  • Crypto collectibles
  • Exclusive music releases
  • A ticket to an event
  • …and so much more

GhostMarket’s smart NFT technology builds on this concept and takes things to the next level by adding properties to the NFT like time-based access, multi-layer, royalties and infusion of assets inside the NFT. These NFTs can also be infused inside one another similar to how the Matryoshka nested Russian doll toys work. Furthermore, these infused NFTs can also be burned in order to acquire the embedded contents. The most exciting part about all of this is that creators can unleash the power of minting GhostMarket smart NFTs in just a few clicks.
