- NFT Name
- NFT Descriprion
- NFT Properties – properties are categories like color, shape, body, mood, background, clothes, eyes, hat, etc. You do not need to add properties if you don’t want, as this is an optional step to differentiate collectible NFTs within a specific collection. Values are attributes that make your NFT unique and rare. You can add unlimited properties.
NOTICE! You cannot add or edit your NFT information after the creation.
Step 5 – Choose the collection where your NFT will appear.
If you already have a collection – you can mint into that collection. If you are creating a new collection – click “+” button to initiate collection creation.
It can be simply ‘(Your Name’s) Collection’ if you didn’t plan a specific one. Every NFT must be a part of the collection. You can’t miss this step, as the collection address is where the NFTs are minted.
Confirm collection creation in your wallet.
Choose the collection from the drop-down list
If you just created the collection and it didn’t show up in the list – click on the arrows in the right corner of the Collection field to refresh the data.
Step 8. Confirm creation
Double-check all the info you entered prior and confirm the creation of the NFT
Tick off that you’re the original owner of the intellectual property and agree with NFTrade’s Terms & Conditions. Then, click “Create”
Go to your wallet and confirm the creation.
You need to have enough funds to pay the gas fee. The amount of gas you need to pay will be visible before confirmation. It may take some time to send data to the blockchain and finish the transaction.
Your NFT collection is created, and your first NFT is minted on the Palm network.
