Learn NFTs
Everything you need to create, mint, and profit from NFTs on TMI.
1. What is an NFT?
NFTs (non-fungible tokens) are unique digital assets verified on a blockchain. On TMI, NFTs represent music, art, event tickets, and platform achievements — each one tied to real platform activity.
2. Minting Your First NFT
Minting creates your NFT on-chain. Choose a type (collectible, badge, venue pass), add a name and metadata, pay the platform mint fee, and your NFT is live in your collection.
3. Royalties Explained
Every time your NFT is resold, you earn a royalty — automatically. TMI enforces a minimum 10% royalty on all secondary sales. You set the percentage at mint time.
4. Drops vs Direct Mint
Drops are time-limited releases with a set edition size. Direct mints are instant and unlimited. Use drops for scarcity, direct mint for your personal collection or fan rewards.
5. Gas and Fees
TMI absorbs most gas costs for platform NFTs. You pay a small mint fee ($1.99–$12.99 depending on type). Resale fees are shared between the creator, buyer, and platform.
6. Publishing to THE END
THE END is TMI's NFT marketplace. Once minted, publish your NFT from the Lab to list it for sale. Set your price, royalty, and edition details — then go live.
