flow-nft VS nba-smart-contracts

Now, open the link named NonFungibleToken which contains the NFT standard. Copy all the content from that file and paste it into the new file you just created ("NonFungibleToken.cdc"). That's it! You've successfully set up the standards for your project.

In this example, we use the ExampleNFT contract to create a basic functionality where any account that wants to receive an ExampleNFT must have a collection.

This usually refers to code or data that lives on the blockchain. It can be stateful or not. When minting an NFT, for instance, there is usually a variable on the smart contract that is incremented to record the total supply. The incrementing of the variable is happening 'on-chain'. In the case of Flow, we can easily store data in smart contracts or even within digital assets like NFTs. It works kind of like this – all NFTs on Flow implement the Flow Non-Fungible Token standard. The NFT itself is just a block of code that conforms to that standard. In addition to the requirements of the NFT standard you can store other data inside as well. So if the NFT represents something like a ticket to an event, then that block of code is where you have an opportunity to store things like an image of the ticket or other metadata like the event name, performers, and so on. It's up to the developer to implement what else goes there in addition to the Flow NFT standard requirements. Adding these 'extra' things to the NFT or a smart contract – things that are meaningful to the experience you're trying to build – are also part of what we colloquially refer to as 'on-chain'.

I thought that was still in ideation phase[1].

NBA Top Shot : It is an online-only marketplace where users can buy, sell and trade NBA highlights. These highlights, or “moments,” are owned by users through a unique number. They’re basically virtual sports cards, but instead of a picture of a player with statistics on the back, you get a video highlight of a play like a LeBron James dunk or a Steph Curry 3-pointer.

The NBA has NBA Top Shot – a way of selling digital collectibles in the form of trading cards embedded with iconic moments from the game. With a plan to add virtual jewellery, accessories and clothing that can be used across social media, the NBA is seeking to find ways to expand this revenue stream as far as it can go.

I started building a small app myself. Nothing that ever will go public. It is just a small privat project to help me understand a few things about flow and cadence better. I was already able to get all the information about the plays from this contract and put it into a csv.
