On the Minting of the "Same" Poem on Multiple Blockchains
An often stated ‘rule’ in the NFT space is that NFTs should not be minted multiple times across different blockchains. One reason given is that doing so would result in different histories of ownership for the NFT : https://www.quora.com/Can-you-mint-the-same-NFT-on-different-blockchains Another reason given is that the definition of ‘scarcity’ becomes blurred if it is not clear that an NFT is available on multiple chains (that is, it is a “cross-chain NFT”) : https://www.reddit.com/r/ergonau...

On the Maintaining of the Identity of an Author On Multiple Blockchains
In my previous article I wrote about considerations literary authors may want to take into account when minting the same piece of work multiple times on different blockchains: https://mirror.xyz/10/0xbf8bae607ee229d1a2a1f4d32f49db76034b9dc3 This article considers how maintaining a registry (perhaps itself a blockchain) of authors and their public addresses across blockchains would be helpful in preventing the problem of one individual on blockchain X impersonating an author who publishes NFTs...

There is a change to the purpose of this publication. Originally a publication on Mirror, I had used it to publish random poems in the early days, followed by a few essays questioning some of the customary assumptions concerning how NFT collections should be handled, such as when shifting from one blockchain to another; as well as one free mint of a poetry NFT. Meanwhile I had another publication on Paragraph, wherein I posted information specific to the confluence of Poetry with the world of digital collectables. Neither publication had a stated 'purpose.'
Recently, however, Paragraph subsumed Mirror, and as of a few weeks ago the merging of the two was completed, which means that my Mirror publication was imported into Paragraph. I now had two publications on the same platform, neither of which had a stated intention. I now felt confused as to what I should post to which publication, and I assumed that readers would also be confused as to why I had two publications with no stated 'goal' and hence what they should expect to be posted to each.
Considering what I had posted so far to each publication, I decided to demarcate them by assigning purposes to each, and last week I did so by changing the name of each publication and changing their description to clarify their respective intentions. Hence the Mirror publication called "OddWritings" - i.e., the publication you are reading now - has now been titled "Web3 Ideas," since this most closely reflects what the majority of its existing posts conveyed, and will convey in the future. These posts will consists of ideas I have on possible improvements to either specific existing Web3 platforms or to designs of new Web3 platforms which could be used to solve various problems. The other publication which was on Paragraph prior to the merge - also called "OddWritings" - is now known as "Web3 Poetry," since this not only reflects its existing content, but also reflects what I feel are the interests of the majority of its subscribers. Read this post in that publication for more information on the how and why of that renaming.
Thanks for your support so far, and feel free to subscribe to the other publication if you feel the topic may be of interest to you.
