KozukiOdenGas Prices & Nonces
If you have interacted with a smart contract on Ethereum Mainnet, you have probably heard of gas or had to pay gas for your transaction. Gas is typically measured in gwei. Demand for block space on Ethereum Mainnet currently outpaces its supply, so the richest users tend to pay a premium to put their transactions through first. Many believe this will likely be an end-state for many of the monolithic blockchains existing today that claim to solve scaling. Block space will continue to be a prem...
KozukiOdenHow to 'backup' your NFT
While a blockchain can cryptographically prove which address a token belongs to, if this token represents a digital image then it is likely the file displayed is stored on a server that may not have/keep having the data availability of a mature, socially distributed blockchain.Punk 8694 File URLTo prevent losing this image due to unforeseen reasons the simplest way would just be to right-click + save to your computer. Another way would be to also setup an IPFS node and pin the images. To do t...

Creating an NFT using the ERC721 standard means that the token created also needs a token URI
Things you’ll need. This list is not extensive and will depend on how much metadata you want your token to have
The image file
The image name
The image description
An IPFS path for the image e.g. ipfs://QmVDae8m3X6HZf9v2Jnyqe53Xpj64vEvQDUci1NpX1Krcs
The first thing you’ll need to do is upload the image to an IPFS node. You can create a pinata account to do this. Once the image is uploaded and pinned on Pinata you will get a CID that looks like this ‘QmVDae8m3X6HZf9v2Jnyqe53Xpj64vEvQDUci1NpX1Krcs’
Then create the json file that will contain the metadata. e.g. the metadata defined below only has three fields - name, description and image.
Upload the json file to a folder on an IPFS node as well, you will also have a CID for the file. Once this is done your token URI will be in the format https://ipfs.io/ipfs/folderCID/metadata.json . This URI can now be used to mint your token
