What are Equippable NFTs?
Equippable NFTs, a revolutionary Modular NFT innovation, are like the transformers of the NFT world. They boast all the features of regular NFTs, but with the added ability to be "equipped" or "attached" to other digital assets. They are one of the essential building blocks of Modular NFT. To fully grasp this concept, let's explore how it works.
Watch the video below for a short overview of equippable NFTs.
How Equippable NFTs work
NFTs, or Non-Fungible Tokens, are unique digital assets that represent ownership of a digital or physical item, such as artwork, virtual real estate, or even a tweet. Each NFT has a distinct value and cannot be exchanged on a one-to-one basis like regular currency (e.g., dollars or bitcoins).
Think of Equippable NFTs as supercharged NFTs, made possible by the revolutionary ERC-6220 standard, developed by RMRK, the team that built Singular. This unique standard allows you to create NFTs that can have other NFTs "attached" or "equipped" to them.
Picture a LEGO set. You can connect different pieces to create something entirely new. Equippable NFTs work in a similar fashion. They can be attached to other NFTs, modifying the original, much like giving your LEGO car a shiny new set of wheels.
