NFT Program Research & Planning

Important Notice

This documentation outlines a potential future feature of the SKYT platform. This program is currently in the research and planning phase and is NOT part of the initial platform launch. No announcements or commitments regarding this feature will be made during early stages of the project.

Concept Overview

The NFT program is being researched as a potential future enhancement to createa dditional utility for secondary tokens generated through staking. The primary concept involves NFTs backed by physical gold, providing a bridge between digital and physical assets.

Potential Implementation Models

1. Collectible NFT Concept

  • Limited-edition NFTs representing specific quantities of gold
  • Each NFT would include unique artwork and serial numbers
  • Digital ownership with physical gold backing

2. Physical-Digital Hybrid System
