      My journey into the world of technology has been fueled by an insatiable curiosity for understanding how things work. This passion led me to delve into programming at a young age, where I embarked on a self-guided learning journey, experimenting and honing my skills.
      One pivotal moment came when I recognized a niche in the PC gaming sector. I conceptualized and developed software tailored to this niche, creating a website, crafting marketing strategies, and successfully selling the software globally. Witnessing the global reach and impact of my creation was an incredibly rewarding experience, all while I was concurrently pursuing studies in Technical Electrics.
      While I dedicated myself to my primary profession, I never lost touch with my programming passion, continually honing my skills. However, my trajectory shifted about a year and a half ago when I decided to turn my hobby into my primary vocation. Supported by my brother, a seasoned programmer, and inspired by the potential of blockchain technology, I embarked on a journey to merge my expertise with this cutting-edge innovation.
      I invested significant time in advancing my knowledge through various courses and bootcamps, notably participating in programs like NEAR University. Discovering the immense potential within the NEAR ecosystem and recognizing the multifaceted utilities of NFTs, my brother and I resolved to develop our innovative idea within this vibrant community.
      The prospect of merging my technical expertise with the power of AI and blockchain technology continues to drive my aspirations.

Would appreciate designs for this. Also wondering if this would be open source and under what license. Also please distingish how this is different thatn what ai.mintbase.xyz has to offer

You mention multichain would appreciate more details on which chains.

Would also appreciate technical architecture and more insight on the stack

Hi @Plugrel, we appreciate your curiosity around our project

  • We are currently in the process of designing interfaces.

Our start point or stage 1 is as an Generative AI NFTs studio with innovative image generation models and consistent attributes and rarity generator tool (private tool) until stage 2, Our aim It is to launch collections in different tier1 blockchains, growing and connecting different chain NFTs ecosystems around our collections and the hype for the premium release of this innovative technology within our community in stage 2 were we plan to develop the key points detailed in the future plans section.

  • Open source repository for stage 1 of NFGenAI with License AGPLV3.

  • Our tech stack (edited in the first post for greater readability):

    • Front-End: Reactjs, Nextjs.
    • Back-end: Cloudflare. Cloudflare workers. Cloudflare Images. Cloudflare Databases
    • APIs to display collections stats.
    • Deployment. Cloudflare, edge deployment.
    • Web3 Wallet Integrations (Wallet selector).
    • Code and deployment of smart contract. Rust, NEAR JS SDK.
  • Multichain:

We first consider NEAR, as we have been here through NEAR bull, bear and this new market cycle and know the potential for a richer NFTs ecosystem in NEAR. We will also launch collections in Solana, Polygon and Ordinals.

Also we have an open mindset, It is about those chains that makes sense for specific positioning.

  • Regards AI mintbase vs NFGenAI:

We prefer to avoid comparison, however as requested here is a ā€œVSā€ keypoints, and while We donā€™t have full knowledge of ai mintbase stack these are our impressions, for further clarification mintbase team could be reached.

NFGenAI

This is part of the vision including stage 1, stage 2 and further.

We laser focus on image generation, collections launch and growing communities (Stage 1).

We solve several important issues:

  • Prompt scalability for collections.
  • Image consistency.
  • Consistent metadata and Traits creation for AI generated images based on their prompt.
  • From 8 bits pixel art to the highest standard of cinematics image quality.
  • Customizable Interface thus creators become more invested in our solutions. (Stage 2).
  • Business model of subscriptions, and marketplace (stage 2)
  • Different AI image models, beyond Dall-e image model.

We donā€™t use general language model setups.

Did We say Customizable? It is important to highlight it once again, not only the interfaces so Users are happier,also the back-end being able to deploy custom and new AI models allow us to stay ahead with a competitive advantage.

VS

ai.mintbase.xyz

It is a ChatGPT plugging (chatbot) that read blockchain data through their indexer,

submit transactions and use the already known image model Dall-e to generate images.

Note. We believe It is important to have more than one ai solution specially in web3.

Hi! I have checked the proposal and I one question.

Is there none of the team have business back ground to make the business model is doable?
What about the GTM strategy?

While weā€™re excited about your proposal, our limited budget constrains us from supporting it at this time in its current form. We encourage you to refine your application with specific use cases of AI generative NFTs, or consider reaching out to organizations like Mintbase or Dev Hub, which may have greater funding availability.
A notable example of unique use-case of AI generative traits is idea behind ā€˜NFTs & MEā€™, a project that @lex and Near Studio are working on, which innovatively uses AI-generated traits to create personality-based NFTs, emphasizing mental health awareness.
