Project Meetings

neferti NIFTY is a proposal for a project in Hyperledger labs. Hyperledger labs is an open source code community with a low barrier to entry. Any and all are welcome to join and contribute to the lab. NIFTY aims to create an easy way to issue and trade The lab maintainers will be the governors. neferti plans a low-code and highly secure implementation to create ecosystems for issuing and trading NFTs, in a protocol agnostic way. NIFTY will create code to manage links to registries for issuance, neferti code will address market place utilities for NFTs to create markets for trading (auction market places) and whatever shall arise in the course of our developmentissuance and trading of NFTs. neferti implementation will allow for extensibility and openness. An initial reference Hyperledger Fabric implementation is planned

An NFT, as many already know, is an acronym for Non Fungible Token. A token is a digital or physical object that stands for something else. Tokens must be issued following a strict process, there must be easy ways to verify that a token is a legitimate representation of value. The object that a token stands for can be digital or analog. Key to the definition of an NFT, is fungibility. Fungibility is a property for units of commodity or a good to be interchangeable. USD is fungible, gold of the same purity and composition is fungible. Fungibility needs a measure, a unit of currency, a gram of gold, a barrel of oil, one share of IBM. Fungibility hinges on the indistinguishability of such units. Fungibility like many properties lies on a spectrumWhen examined closely Fungibility itself is a spectrum, sometimes limited by taint, by geography, by the number of units

In NFT, the definition of fungibility is negated; that is, each token is unique and one cannot be exchanged for another.

Fractionalization is a closely related concept, in most implementations of NFT, tokens cannot be fractionalized. If fractionalion is available, then fractions of the same NFT token are fungible; another related topic is the concept of tokens of the same kind; an example used is skins in a game, there may be many copies of a skin that is fungible as long as certain elements of the meta-data match. This is the idea behind ERC-1155.

A software system for the creation and trading for NFTs has to account for a way to tie the NFT to the unique object at issuance (Identity, authorization and a global registry); a marketplace for trading NFTs, which means establishing a price for the NFT as well as means to transfer ownership. This means an An implementation of these actions through interfaces supported by NFT token attributes and metadata.

As reuse Reuse is one of the defining characteristics of human endeavorsoftware development, the following is proposed. 

  • Adopt a token standard (a combination of the TTF and ERC- inspired standards)  
  • Implement a marketplace (recode samples )
  • Use Hyperledger Fabric as the underlying utility. See how ERC standards have been implemented in Fabric.
  • Generalize (see below)A complex systems view (Identity, distribution, decentralization, fairness, payment systems, cross-border, multi-protocol, interoperability of tokens, standards)- See under extensions.

As Ethereum has been the main driver of NFTs, standards are most mature in EIPs (Ethereum Improvement Proposals). These standards have been implemented in Open Zeppelin and in other locations. Three standards are of note in NFTs: ERC 721, ERC-1155 and ERC 998.  Of this ERC-721 is most commonly used. The implementation of eThaler as ERC-1155 in Hyperledger labs and its subsequent reuse in the Climate Accounting project means that these standards are mappable to Hyperledger projects like Fabric.

...

  1. Can this infrastructure be flexible enough to define and issue different kinds of NFTs that conform to different standards?
  2. Can a multi-protocol approach work (this is considerably more difficult as it involves creating smart contracts in different protocols)- What about WASM approaches (investigate Solang HL Lab)
  3. Interoperability of NFTs can NFT issued on one protocol move to another? Be paid for in another
  4. Oracles that underlie NFTs.
  5. Submarining- Is this relevant for non-IPFS storage mechanisms?
  6. Other damping mechanisms- A governor or clamping mechanism with a circuit breaker for extreme events
  7. Incorporate AI and XR in the stack
  8. Handle Current limitations of Web3 implementations (Moxie M)

    • "Design systems that can distribute trust without having to distribute infrastructure." . All data to be in distributed infrastructure (In Fabric this can be Private Data Collections)
    • "Reduce the burden of building software." - No code platform....A smart contract generator, for Go implementations first.
    • A generic issuer front end.
    • A wallet front end for transfers (not tied to a particular access point)
    • Platforms vs Protocols.
    • Avoid the worst of both worlds: "centralize to control, decentralize to reduce speed of change".
    • Wallets need interfaces to decentralized data without having to rely on a centralized intermediary.
