3.Cost and Scarcity

The SOAI platform, in designing the NFT minting system, not only focuses on providing users with an engaging and unique creative experience but also prioritizes the control of NFT scarcity and economic sustainability. Reasonable minting cost settings and dynamic scarcity controls can create long-term value for NFT holders and ensure the healthy development of the platform's NFT ecosystem. Let's delve deeper into SOAI's approach to NFT minting costs and scarcity control.

Firstly, the SOAI platform utilizes an SOAI token-based NFT minting cost mechanism. Users need to spend a certain number of SOAI tokens to obtain the qualification to mint NFTs. The number of SOAI tokens required varies according to the rarity level of the NFT:

  • Common Tier NFTs: Minting a Common Tier NFT costs 10 SOAI tokens. This relatively low cost encourages more users to participate in NFT creation, injecting creative vitality into the platform.

  • Rare Tier NFTs: Minting a Rare Tier NFT costs 50 SOAI tokens. The slightly higher minting cost is suited to enhance the funding for creating Rare Tier NFTs, ensuring their quality and scarcity.

  • Epic Tier NFTs: An Epic Tier NFT requires 200 SOAI tokens for minting. The significant cost restricts Epic Tier NFT creation to the most creative and committed users, ensuring the artistic and collectible value of these NFTs.

  • Legendary Tier NFTs: Minting a Legendary Tier NFT costs 1000 SOAI tokens. The substantial cost makes creating a Legendary Tier NFT a supreme honor on the platform, with each piece emerging as an unparalleled art treasure.

The SOAI token-based minting cost structure not only prevents the excessive production of NFTs but also reasonably controls the supply of NFTs at each rarity level. Additionally, the minting activity creates actual demand for SOAI tokens, enhancing the token's value. As the platform's ecosystem thrives and the user base expands, the market value of SOAI tokens will rise, further increasing the minting costs and creating a positive cycle between NFT scarcity and token value.

Furthermore, the SOAI platform has introduced innovative controls for NFT scarcity. To encourage user creation while ensuring that the NFT framework does not become overly inflated, the platform has designed an algorithm-based dynamic gain adjustment mechanism:

  • Real-Time Monitoring: The platform continuously monitors the minting rate and stock levels of NFTs at each rarity level, using data analytics to dynamically assess whether the NFT supply is reasonable.

  • Dynamic Adjustments: When the minting rate or stock of a specific tier of NFTs is too high, the platform automatically increases the minting cost for that tier, curbing excessive short-term minting and preventing imbalance in the NFT load.

  • Tiered Development: Depending on the stage of the ecosystem, the platform sets different NFT construction baselines. Initially, baselines for each NFT tier are relatively high to quickly expand the user base and scale of the NFT ecosystem. As the platform matures, the NFT construction starting points will gradually tighten, stabilizing the long-term increment of NFTs and ensuring their long-term value.

  • Community Co-Governance: The platform leverages the collective intelligence of community users for periodic public voting on adjustments to NFT increment strategies. Based on personal experiences and market insights, users can suggest optimizations to the NFT increment strategy, and the platform will consider community feedback to make necessary adjustments to the scarcity control mechanism, achieving a dynamic balance between NFT value and user interests.

Additionally, to further enhance NFT scarcity, the SOAI platform has introduced value-added services such as NFT staking and speculation:

  1. NFT Staking: Users can stake their NFTs in the platform's NFT fund pool to earn a proportional share of SOAI token staking rewards. The staked NFTs are temporarily non-tradable, further reducing the circulation of NFTs and initially enhancing their scarcity.

  2. NFT Speculation: For users who wish to permanently treasure the artistic value of their NFTs, the platform offers a permanent speculation service. Users can opt to permanently speculate their owned NFTs, with the digital rights certificate permanently recorded on the blockchain, solidifying the NFT's status as an art piece. The speculative value theory allows each NFT the potential to become an immortal legend, creating an irreplicable emotional and artistic experience for NFT holders.

Through tiered minting costs, dynamic adjustments, community co-governance, NFT staking, and speculation, the SOAI platform's multi-layered mechanisms control NFT scarcity, turning each NFT into a treasure of the digital art renaissance. As we move towards an unlimited future, SOAI continuously upgrades its scarcity control algorithms, integrating cutting-edge game theory and market clearing theory, striving to achieve a perfect dynamic balance between incentivizing innovation and scarce value, bringing greater emotional satisfaction and value return to every NFT creator and holder.

Let us join the SOAI platform in crafting new rules for digital emotional art through the NFT scarcity control mechanisms outlined. Owning or minting NFTs on the SOAI platform means not only embracing unique emotional expressions but also participating in a cutting-edge digital art revolution, witnessing the birth of new values. Together, under the banner of NFTs, let's explore the infinite possibilities of emotion and create eternal artistic value. This is the core pursuit of SOAI's NFT scarcity control and the beautiful vision of the NFT value utopia we strive to build.
