TL;DR

  • Open Source
  • Mintbase Wallet
  • Events
  • Decreased Storage Fee

Open Source

This month we open sourced our audited contract factory and marketplace, responsible for deploying +1,500 NFT contracts on NEAR Team. This is the equivalent to the well known Open Zeppelin contract deployer. Developers are now able to quickly spin up their own contracts and NFT projects.

We also open sourced Minsta, a modular NFT photo engagement solution for events.

Mintbase Wallet

One of the biggest onboarding hurdles in web3 is the complexity of storing seedphrases and the need to own cryptocurrencies. The Mintbase Wallet which has been tested at several events, will be publicly released shortly.

The Wallet offers secure key management, frictionless transactions, and optional recovery features. More insights can be found in the recording below.

Events

This month we had several events with one startup challenge still ongoing until the 11th of October. Dive into the Mintbase SDK and earn a $1000 prize. Click here to find out more.

Our Head of Innovation Luís Freitas gave a workshop on Meta Transactions, AI and the Mintbase Wallet. If you missed his presentation, watch it here:

Event solutions: Minsta

We inofficially released our Mintbase Wallet during the Rakhi festival in India and it was a great success. Raksha Bandhan is a Hindu festival celebrating the unbreakable and special bonds between siblings by taking photos of gifted bracelets. Users were able to easily create a wallet and then mint photo memories on the Rakhi Minsta app. Over 49 new NEAR wallets were created and over 441 NFTs minted. The users were mostly non-crypto natives and were able to easily mint NFTs without owning any cryptocurrencies.

The NEAR APAC Minsta was another great activation, moments can be seen here:
