Choosing NFT token implementation as a base for the auctions #2

There are currently multiple NFT implementations currently being built on top of the Substrate framework

As well as some others I am maybe not aware of. It seems that the most accepted "standard" is currently the orml-nft and that's why we think it's a good idea to start the initial auction implementation on top of it. However, the only widely used solution is RMRK.app while Unique Network and Bit.Country emerging pretty fast to add more functionally on top of the orml-nft implementation. So that raises some questions about which NFT implementation is the most suitable for starting the project on the green field.

Also, SubAuction team would love to take part in any standardization initiative in the Polkadot/Kusama ecosystem and make our solution flexible enough to cover most important NFT implementations and maybe serve as a bridge between them one day.

Hello, RMRK founder here. We'd love to work closely together, especially since we'll be:

All the above are confirmed partnerships.

@Swader Hey Bruno, thanks for joining the conversation. Those bridged assets you mention (last two bullet points) will link your standard implementation from the Unique pallet or the native RMRK implementation currently running on Kusama? And for the Moonbeam, I suppose you will re-develop your standard as a set of Solidity-based smart contracts, right? But it definitely sounds impressive, we are already in talks with Unique for some time and definitely want to use their platform as a place where to host our NFT auctions. So having RMRK standard being on the same platform, easily accessible via Substrate, is really great!

They will bridge to both, we plan to make multi-directional bridges. So you decide where you want to take the NFT, the appropriate locking account is used and the mirror NFT is minted on whatever environment you're targeting. So we should be able to support it all.

Exactly, yes.

We just launched singular.rmrk.app as well, feel free to check it out. I already have an auction in mind for Kanaria bird no.1, but was struggling to make it happen on the current Kusama-native implementation (as is to be expected), so having something cool on Unique via your pallet to pull this off would be great too, we want to add auctions into Singular eventually anyhow.
