Few and Far is well known for its marketplace and launchpad on NEAR, but not many people know that its API infrastructure and FNF-007 NFT specification is providing vital tooling for over 20 top projects on NEAR.
Updates to Few and Far’s world-class API
With the recent updates to our API to provide even more flexibility, we wanted to share some examples of what is now possible! This provides significant benefits to projects including:
- Speed to market
- Cost savings
- Royalty protection for contract owners
- Dynamic NFTs
- More creator control
New NFT Features
Here’s an array of exciting new features from Few and Far and breakthrough developments our engineering team has been working relentlessly to deploy and deliver.
1. Digital Asset Reveal
Mint NFTs with an unrevealed asset (think: question mark graphic), and when you’re ready, update media for NFTs to point to their revealed graphics.
2. NFT Builder
Build-your-own NFTs are becoming increasingly popular, and our API makes it super easy to allow your users to build their NFT, providing the media and metadata at mint time. You could even allow NFT holders to trade attributes after mint — the sky’s the limit!
3. Profile Picture NFTs
Create a drop with 10,000 unique graphics that you have generated and want to mint randomly. Mint on your own site, on fewfar.com or via API. Easily manage whitelists, mint prices, and mint dates/times.
4. NFT Loyalty Programs
Track loyalty points on-chain, and update the NFT graphic when the owner hits milestones.
5. NFT Integrated Gaming
Allow players to level-up their NFTs or even trade attributes in your Web3 game!
6. Ticketing and Real-World Applications
Create event tickets that start out as QR codes and transform into a souvenir after the event.
7. Advanced Media Support
GIFs are now supported on fewfar.com, providing a richer experience for NFT creators and collectors.
What’s Next?
With a packed roadmap, here are some exciting new features we are now working on which, as an FnF builder, you will be very interested in:
Minting to an email address
This takes away the need for you to manage blockchain account creation flows for your users, and leverages the Few and Far onboarding system. Simply send an email address (instead of a NEAR address) in your request to our /mint endpoint, and leave the rest to us. Our system will create Few and Far account for them if they don’t have one, as well as a non-custodial NEAR wallet. They can then simply log into fewfar.com with the same email, and they will have full access to their NFT.
Stats and On-Chain Transactions
Prefer a no-code solution? Use the Few and Far Studio to pull analytics and reports for your collections.
API Data
Fetch data on a) recently minted items, b) recently listed items, c) recently traded items, d) floor prices, & e) volumes.
Customizable Marketplace
Add dynamic widgets to your app/site which shows your users what is happening in your collections such as minting, listing, trading & floor prices.
Few and Far Branded ‘Stores’
You can launch and manage multiple collections under one contract, and create your co-branded storefront on www.fewfar.com. This provides the option to conveniently group multiple collections under a single URL for you to manage with your community.
As the NFT landscape evolves we are excited to be on the cutting edge of the latest technology and positioning ourselves front and center for the next wave of adoption.
