blockfrost-js VS pool.pm

That way you use your own node to conduct the transactions rather than using a service like blockfrost

Nothing against blockfrost.io just wanna know if this is possible/easy

Im trying to get the list of NFTs in a specific wallet, Im using Koios but planning to switch to blockfrost.io but couldn't identify the particular API, any help?

If you don't want to run a Cardano node then you can use Blockfrost

🔹 blockfrost.io announced the availability of two new testnet networks: Preview and Preprod.

Since the start of June, we have been successfully running an early build of the new node (which includes diffusion pipelining and the new Plutus v2 CIPs among other enhancements) as a semi-public Vasil developer testnet (Devnet). We now have some 35 developers from across 27 projects testing their DApps and helping identify any issues, along with 16 stake pool operators (SPOs) supporting. We’re also working closely with some of the leading tool/API providers, including Blockfrost, Cardano Serialization library (EMURGO), and Cardano Multiplatform Library (dcSpark). We want to call out the work of Mlabs and Dquadrant in particular for providing great support throughout the process. This developer testnet stage puts us in a good position when it comes to Plutus code compatibility and functionality. This valuable work will continue on this development testnet over the next few weeks.

Five Binaries is a Prague, Czech Republic based consulting company who have been 100% focused on improving the Cardano ecosystem since day one. The members are all ex-Trezor Suite core developers and previously maintained the backend infrastructure for Trezor Wallet. The team created the first stake pool on the ITN and second on Mainnet,StakeNuts. They also processed the first Shelley Mainnet transaction. The Five Binaries team are also behind the first oracle solution on Cardano, Nut.link, and developed Blockfrost, APIs which are used to access the Cardano blockchain. Regarding usage and adoption, Blockfrost APIs is a core service used by the ecosystem and has a community of over 10,000 developers that have contributed to over 4,000 projects.

You can however call an SC using Blockfrost; this is an Web2-style API designed specifically to interacting with the Cardano network.

Pool.pm

Basically, 90% of all music tokens on Cardano are publicly accessible, and pool.pm isn't the best solution for playing tracks back. My idea is basically a public site, where even non-crypto users can access the music. IMO, people do not want to pay to discover new music, but are much more likely to purchase content if they discover an artist they vibe with. Too many music NFT solutions only target the relatively small niche community of crypto users.

The biggest issue, IMO, is the fact that these links are typically publicly accessible. Any token's content can be viewed on pool.pm or extrapolated from the metadata on any block explorer without owning the token. This then begs the question, what is the point of purchasing the token if you have access to the content for free (so long as there is a mint)?

And now to my surprise, trying Cardano Scan and Cardano Explorer and pool.pm, I **was not** able to start with the asset ID of one NFT, retrace the transactions I did to then find all the other NFTs.

Not yet, but till then use https://pool.pm/ put your address, or a adahandle in the search.

You can plug your address into pool.pm to see everything in your wallet without inputting your seed phrase.

To find out if your pool is retiring you can plug the pool ticker into pool.pm and and it will tell you on the pool page. Check this one out as an example:

Its honestly a pretty fun ecosystem. You could just get a few ADA to play around with. Use Nami wallet and then pick a pool to stake to on pool.pm. Its pretty fun

Is it Yoroi? Try going to pool.pm and entering your stake address. That will give you accurate data. pooltool.io will also give you reasonably accurate data on rewards.
