Challenges we ran into

Product Listing and NFT Access Control on BirdBox

BirdBox introduces an innovative approach to content commerce using ERC1155 contracts. When a seller lists a product, a new token is created on the ERC1155 contract. Purchasing a product results in the minting of a soulbound NFT, granting exclusive access to the content.

To ensure secure and time-sensitive access, we integrate web2 storage and generate links that are valid for only one minute. The ownership of the NFT is validated server-side, effectively gating access to the content.
