Mirror's introduction of Writing NFTs marked a significant shift in how we approach user experience for content creators in the blockchain space. We were keen to ensure the publishing process was streamlined and accessible to as many creators as possible.

When the first NFT was bought, the collector would deploy and collect the token in a single transaction.

OpenSea just rolled out their attempted solution to the creator royalty problem. Their solution is what they call the Operator Filter Registry. The registry lets creators specify which address should not be allowed to transfer tokens on behalf of users.

From a collector’s perspective, there’s a chance that when you buy an NFT, your ownership will be limited.

A typical problem with NFT sales is bad actors quickly buy up many editions with the intention to resell them at a markup price. We saw this with the CryptoNewYorkers drop.
