What are super NFTs? Let’s start with super apps - the acme of web2. Super apps refer to a single company offering as many features as possible in as few apps as possible (eg OfficeSuite, WeChat, Creative Suite).

In web3, the parity is one ecosystem with as many applications as possible:

• Ethereum for databases

• Polkadot for chains

• What about NFTs?

Owning an iPhone gives access to Apple iOS (operating system) and the underlying ecosystems (software). By analogy, similar principles apply to NFT ownership.

In 2021, the most popular NFT categories on Opensea were collectibles and art. In 2022, the beginning of utility NFTs and different experiments begin to emerge, such as social identity, membership pass for exclusive physical spaces, and metaverse world building aka choose-your-own-story.

But if we were to explore further, can we reimagine NFTs as operating systems (protocols) instead of hardware (collectibles)?

This is the core of my work at BEBverse domains. There are two components:

• .beb is the actual NFT and represents a new on-chain namespace. If .eth represents identity, .beb represents community. Owning gives you moderation and role-assigning abilities for that community.

• BEBverse is an on-chain protocol backing the .beb NFT. You must own the .beb to plug into the protocol and experience different applications building on top of it. Anyone can permissionlessly build and extend the protocol, hence the term Super NFT.

In other words, why can’t we just use the centralized solutions in web2?

In a world of product sameness, we will see more and more story-driven products.

Communities will all eventually exit centralized monoliths to have custom and dedicated apps.

Examples of what is possible:

• Experience Shogun Japan like a West World Park in VR, where you bring your squads to fight together

• A physically gated concert for the premium members of your comunity

• Existing applications for a core feature with different ‘vibes’, e.g a gated social audio club for Warriors fans and another for Raptors fans. I like to think of those small apps the difference between the Gem Saloon and the Bella Union in Deadwood.

• Any social experience tailored exactly to your community’s need

We are working hard on the first decentralized Super NFT. If you are as excited as we are to see the endless experiences, keep up to date with BEBverse by minting your (free) Super NFT at beb.domains :)
