The problem NFTance solves

• Creation and Ownership: Users can easily create, manage, and monetize their own NFTs, ensuring true ownership.
• Content Security: To protect intellectual property, the platform implements watermarks on NFT images and restricts video previews to a few seconds, reducing the risk of unauthorized screenshots and content theft.
• Preview Functionality: Users can view NFT videos for a few seconds before making a purchase, providing a brief yet informative look at the content.
• Buying and Selling: Facilitates a seamless experience for users to buy and sell NFTs, ensuring a straightforward and efficient transaction process.

Challenges we ran into

• Watermark Implementation: Developing a secure watermarking system for NFT images that maintains visual appeal while deterring unauthorized use i.e. screenshots.
• Preview Duration: Implementing a timed preview feature for NFT videos to balance user experience with content protection (to avoid video recording before buy).
• Performance Optimization: Ensuring smooth playback of video previews and efficient handling of NFT metadata and transactions within the decentralized framework.
• Integration with Web3: Seamlessly integrating smart contracts with our React frontend, and ensuring compatibility with Cardano zkEVM Testnet.
