The Future of Unlockable Content in Your NFTs

Mogul Development Update #1

The Mogul development team is hard at work assembling the newest set of features for the Mogul Productions NFT Marketplace and ecosystem.  Ten major features have come on board. Each one will be reviewed over the course of ten weeks.

Mogul Development Update #1

So far, NFTs have barely scratched the surface when it comes to their potential.  Most NFTs exist as static items on the blockchain available for buying and selling on digital marketplaces. 

Yet, NFTs have enormous creative potential, which artists and collectors can harness to diversify their functionalities. Unlockable content is one such crucial element that can add value and infuse creativity into NFTs, thus enhancing the overall trading experience. 

Ownership should come with perks.  The same goes for NFTs.  Fun bonuses are a strong enticement when buying NFTs.   Unlockable NFTs are often similar to opening bonus features on different digital media platforms.  Smart contracts attached to NFTs give users the right to particular pieces of intellectual property which differ from piece to piece. 

Unlockable content may include high-resolution images, video clippings, redeemable coupons, or links to exclusive websites. It can also include physical items like signed merchandise, tickets, or prints of digital artwork.

Filmmakers can include video clips and other surprises in NFTs. 

Mogul Productions Unlockable NFT for Films

When a cinema enthusiast buys a collector’s edition, for example, they can chance upon an unlockable NFT with exclusive rewards. Such rewards may include deleted movie scenes, special interviews with the film crew, footage from movie sets, and alternative endings. It can also include photographs and signed merchandise from the cast and crew. 

Picture a NFT digital poster art from a soon-to-be-released movie.  One month later, it unlocks two tickets to the red carpet premiere including a meet and greet with the director and stars.  

Three months later, it provides bonus material like deleted scenes or bloopers which only the NFT owner can see.  One year later, only specific NFT owners can purchase certain film memorabilia from other movies in production as a special thank you for supporting them.

Unlockable NFTs can also include audio files, like songs from musicians. 

Mogul Productions Unlockable NFT for Musicians

While releasing an album through NFTs, musicians can steganographically incorporate exclusive music tracks as unlockables. The mystery will bolster the craze around the album’s release, with every fan wanting access to those rare tracks. Musicians can further experiment with unlockables for releasing their practice tracks, rejected song versions, and more. 

Picture a NFT digital art of a band which also becomes a concert ticket.  Once in, the owner is eligible for upgrades to the front row and backstage passes to hang with the band.  The NFT’s smart contract provides recordings of three live songs from that specific concert.  A year later, only owners of the band’s NFT concert tickets can purchase certain fan material from the band as a special thank you for supporting them on the road.

Digital art collectors will benefit immensely from unlockable NFTs.

The artist can design a smart contract where a handful of buyers will get additional ownership rights of rare artworks. Unlockables can also include an email link with an authenticity certificate or a physical copy of the artwork. 

Game developers can incorporate unlockable NFTs into the gaming ecosystem that players can unlock upon qualifying a particular level.

Unlockable Agents in Valorant Beta

Here the unlockables may include in-game assets like special characters, superfast racing cars, and heavy ammunition weapons. Gamers will always be on the lookout for such unlockable NFTs within the gaming terrain to enhance their playability.  

Big brands, multinational companies, startups, and standalone entrepreneurs can use unlockable NFTs to reach out to their customers.

Mogul Productions Unlockable NFT for Collectibles

Product offerings can come with unlockables carrying personalized messages and thank you notes for each consumer. Some unlockable NFTs also come with time capsules that unlock after a certain amount of time has elapsed. These different kinds of unlockables diversify the already existing use-cases of NFTs. 

Creators and developers can experiment with these assets to make them more creative. 

Such content will contribute toward building a narrative around the digital asset, accessible exclusively to the owner of the NFT.

Beside generating additional value in the secondary marketplace, unlockables also reward collectors with surprises. Therefore, with unlockable content, NFTs no longer remain static collectibles but emerge to become dynamic assets with mysterious rewards. 

Unlockable NFTs will help independent creators as well as mainstream corporations and brands forge meaningful relationships with fans and consumers. As audiences unravel new layers of a NFT, they will be able to viscerally connect with the NFT’s story.

Navigating New Frontiers

Mogul Productions is capable of leveraging these advanced technological innovations to incorporate hidden or secret data into NFTs. 

Collectors can utilize the steganography coded data in NFTs to acquire other NFTs, discover the backstory, and/or attend the creator’s masterclasses. 

Toward The Future

This community-oriented marketplace is specifically built for the film and entertainment industry, thus partnering with movies, content creators, and intellectual property owners.

Faster Image Speed 

Mogul’s Marketplace V3 - Faster Image Speed

With so much data to filter through, performance speed is paramount for an enjoyable user experience.  Large files cannot be efficiently stored on blockchains. They become bloated and a lot of storage space is required.

OpenSea, and popular decentralized peer-to-peer marketplaces, store their NFT data visuals where outside  marketplaces which need to scrape their sites  to visually display visual material on their own sites.  Mogul mitigates the  time and data delays by keeping that data more often in its own site.  

Mogul’s Marketplace V3 is transitioning to further use NFT data and images from its own web marketplace, rather than outside sources.  That means faster image speeds.

ERC721 The Super Soldier of NFTs

Mogul Development Update #3

The Mogul development team is hard at work assembling the newest set of features for the Mogul Productions NFT marketplace and ecosystem.  Ten major features have come on board. Each one will be reviewed over the course of ten weeks.

The Mogul Marketplace platform supports ERC721 NFTs.  

Mogul Marketplace platform supports ERC721 NFTs

ERC721 tokens represent non-fungible real-world assets which are better suited for film and entertainment projects, especially when it comes to unique one-of-a-kind fan collectibles. 

ERC721 tokens represent a collection of non-divisible assets built on Ethereum compatible blockchains. It is more complex than its fungible predecessor ERC20.

One single ERC20 token can be divided between several owners, whereas one ERC721 token can be owned by only one user at a time.

It is also a faster and more robust interface for representing NFT ownership.  The smart contracts for each ERC721 NFT on the Mogul marketplace are what make each digital piece special and collectible.

Implementing the power of  ERC721 tokens 

Mogul Productions - Implementing the power of  ERC721 tokens 

Participants in film or music projects gather a collection of virtual film and music memorabilia.  Each one is represented by an ERC721 NFT token.   Think of ownership of a specific draft of a script, conceptual artwork, deleted movie scenes, special interviews with the film crew, footage from movie sets, and alternative endings.  Even production credits and film royalties can be tokenized through ERC721 smart contracts.

Mogul Productions -  ERC721 NFT token

In the music world, concert tickets, backstage passes, future purchasing rights like a stock or real estate option, maybe a b-side music track on an album from a band can be owned through NFTs.   

An ERC721 token simplifies ownership. They are not divisible.   A participant either completely owns or does not fully own an asset on an ER721 NFT.  For example, it is not feasible to possess “half a song score” for a film. You either own it all or you don’t own it at all.  

Technology upgrade

The main reason for introducing the ERC721 standards was to address the critical challenge of transferring multiple assets without increasing the operational costs.  Security of complete ownership is another reason.  

Mogul Productions -  ERC721 NFT token - Technology Update

Conclusion

Token standards are evolving at a fast rate. ERC721 tokens are only the beginning of the advancements in the Mogul digital environment.  

It is also about managing NFT drops, crowdfunding, fanbase building and introducing additional cryptocurrencies to the market in a timely manner.  All of these applications need a high level of functionality which is why the Mogul production team is at the forefront of advancing digital technology in film and entertainment  .
