Editions

Editions are the simplest collection type — a single artwork that collectors can mint. The three edition types differ only in supply:

Open Edition

Section titled “Open Edition”
  • Supply: Unlimited
  • Use case: Maximize distribution. Every collector who wants the piece can mint it.
  • Supports all sale types (fixed price, Dutch auction, ranked auction)

Limited Edition

Section titled “Limited Edition”
  • Supply: Fixed cap set by the creator
  • Use case: Scarcity-driven drops. Once the supply is minted, no more tokens can be created.
  • Supports all sale types including ranked auction

One of One

Section titled “One of One”
  • Supply: Exactly 1
  • Use case: Unique, singular pieces. Only one collector will own this token.
  • Supports fixed price and Dutch auction sales (ranked auction is not supported for 1/1)

Edition metadata

Section titled “Edition metadata”

All edition types share the same metadata structure:

  • Name — The token name
  • Description — Token description
  • Image — Primary visual asset
  • Animation URL — Optional animated asset (video, HTML) — field: animationUrl
  • Attributes — Key-value trait pairs

Token standard

Section titled “Token standard”

Editions support two token standards:

  • ERC-721 — Each token is a unique NFT. Standard for most edition types.
  • ERC-1155 — Semi-fungible tokens. More gas-efficient for large open editions where all tokens share the same metadata.

The token standard is selected during collection creation.
