FAQ Followup - Add tutorial links and concise ramp information

[kkukelka]

ON HOLD until tutorials are finished

Followup issue regarding #1604

According to this comment

I wrote to ramp network, to find out when buying KSM with fiat is going to be avalaible and they don't know. Question is, if it wouldn't be better to just not link it now and link it when it's avalaible again, or, when there's some functional dex on KSM, so people can exchange dot for ksm (dot is avalaible). As i tried to avoid it, link to ramp network is only in question number 6 for now. I'll also be making tutorials on most of these things, like how to create polkadot js wallet, how to simple mint, how to obtain KSM, how to sell your art, show several functions, what can one see in KodaDot and so on. So these questions will be updated and be ending with "if you have problems with this, you can watch this tutorial". But that will be once the tutorials are ready and proofed.

I guess we can then later continue in this issue and once the tutorial is ready on youtube i'll just send updated question number and we can update it. Also i would like to link directly to a playlist on KodaDot youtube channel with plenty of tutorials. Might as well do it all at once, the video creation shouldn't take long, as i'll be working on it from this point.

extend FAQ question number 3 in the following manner

"3": "How can i mint NFTs?"
"In the left upper corner, you click on "create" and choose simple or classic mint. If you don't know how to continue, you can watch this tutorial."

1. and add tutorial interlinking

2. new information for ramps (maybe separate faq entry)

So, i can see that there are some mistakes in the FAQ(some hyperlinks wrong etc) so i'll update those

and i've finished one tutorial and that is - Polkadot.js tutorial. We'll see how the review goes on discord and will create Issue regarding this soon.

Once proofed, i'll send questions that need to be updated along with functional hyperlinks. The tutorial will be uploaded on KodaDot youtube so once this is done i'll be sending update. Sounds good? @kkukelka

Yes, sounds like a plan 👍 Just comment on this issue here when everything is ready!

hey @kkukelka so i've been updating the faq basicly in our docs

What i mean now, what's the best flow on how to update current FAQ? I could see some links being wrongly linked in the current build, but i'm pretty sure all of them are working fine in the docs, because i updated them.

Can you advise on some ideal steps for both of us how to make this done? Can surely send you here only questions that are new and also find the links which are wrongly linked, if that suits you.

Or if it is easier for you to just copy the docs FAQ.md and put the same version to our FAQ on main page?

Also grant links and credit function can be reverted as they are working flawlessly now. I believe i'll be able to update some links with pull request later if i find some mistakes, since i kinda figured out the flow after my experience with docs :)

[kkukelka]

@cryptodamsky I would suggest you only send me the new questions which should be added right here. also the number of the faq question so i know where to put it in terms of order. And of course the links that are broken in current build.

If you feel like something is missing afterwards and you feel confident in being able to do the required changes, you can of course make a PR in that regard. I can review it afterwards or answer you questions on Discord if you are unsure about stuff

New questions:

"4" What can you mint on the Kodadot platform?

You can mint practically anything, actual possibilites:

"5" How much will it cost me to mint an nft?

At the time of writing, the fees for minting an nft are 0.02 USD 🎉

"30" What is Kodadot and what is Kusama?

Kodadot is an NFT Platform that is community-driven, running on a low carbon footprint blockchain. Kusama is a pre-production environment for the Polkadot network. $KSM is the coin used for interacting the Kusama network. Since it's a sandbox for early projects which like to move fast and break things on the Polkadot ecosystem, expect Chaos.

"31" What is NSFW? All minted files will observe the Code of Conduct and all NSFW (Not Safe For Work) files should be classified NSFW when minting.

"32" What is existential deposit(ED)?

On the Polkadot network, an address is only active when it holds a minimum amount, currently set at 1 DOT (and 0.0000333333 KSM on the Kusama network). This minimum amount is called the Existential Deposit (ED). Read more in our docs.

"33" What are NFT royalties?

Royalties, or royalty payments, are financial payments that are made from one party to another for the ongoing use of their assets. The term is most commonly associated with the music industry, where musicians allow their records to be played on the radio, streamed online, or sampled by other musicians in exchange for a (royalty) fee. However, it isn’t just musicians that are owed royalties when their work is used. Songwriters, composers, publishers, novelists, producers, and just about anybody involved in a creative process has the potential to claim royalties.

NFT royalties give artists a percentage of the sale price each time their artwork is resold. No matter how many secondary sales occur, the royalties will always be paid back to the original creator, and the best part is that the whole process is automated.

"34" What are fees and why do i need to pay them?

Transaction fees prevent individual users from consuming too many resources. Polkadot uses a weight-based fee model as opposed to a gas-metering model. As such, fees are charged prior to transaction execution; once the fee is paid, nodes will execute the transaction.

"35" What are the transfer fees on Kusama?

Currently, the minimum cost of transferring KSM is 0.01 KSM (the base fee), although this can be changed via governance.

"36" Can someone double buy my art?

RMRK is currently just an NFT baked into the blockchain and we don’t have any chain logic. From the lesson of randomness, we know that there is the possibility that two or more people can make buy transactions in the same block and can lose money. Then it’s just about the honesty of the artist to return the money or mint the same NFT as the token of appreciation.

"37" Can i buy nfts from my phone?

Yes, currently the KodaDot integration in Nova wallet is working fine. We've made video and written tutorial on how to do this.

Hey so let's add these for now, i've found one link for now which needs to be updated, so let's update it. It's link for grant form

This is the correct link: https://form.kodadot.xyz/grant

I'll be going through the whole faq again to see what links could be updated or changed, so i'll have a look on the flow and once you update these questions and the link, i'll later make PR to update the other links. But i think this one is the one definitely i knew of. I'd like to add some more links later for docs etc, but first we'll reorganize the docs with Frank and then update the links.

@cryptodamsky PR is opened. let me know if something is missing 👍
