Did you know Uptick is the biggest App/Marketplace running on IRISNet & the whole Cosmos ecosystem! Read on to learn more from Brian Xin, about the current status of the Uptick Project and Uptick NFT Marketplace: NFT Collections - Collections did not previously exist within the Cosmos ecosystem so the Uptick team spent about a month building this feature from scratch. Now “extra metadata attributes” are recorded on the blockchain, keeping NFTs in “containers” called “collections”. Uptick really wanted to futureproof this functionality and make their collections fully compatible with other blockchains, keeping future interoperability in mind. An overview of how to view and create collections is included in the video. Messaging – Within the Uptick NFT marketplace app & website, it is possible for creators/artists to directly message fans who like/purchase their work, and collectors/fans can also message creators/artists to get more information and build a relationship. Slideshows – With “one-click” users can automatically scroll through an artist’s collection on Uptick or they can casually browse through all of the artist’s work kept there. “Exclusive Sale” – Uptick allows creators/artists to limit the sale of new NFTs to those who already possess one or more NFTs that have previously been minted and made available in the marketplace. Uptick’s “Discount Sale” feature works in a similar fashion. EVM Modules – The current testnets (Uptick Token/Uptick Chain & Uptick NFT marketplace [both mobile app and website]) employ EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) modules which make them fully compatible with ERC 721, 1155, and all other ERC tokens, and make Uptick compatible with MetaMask and other related applications. Bear Market? – The market may be down, but it shouldn’t get us down. Now is a great time for Uptick to build more value/features into their products, and for artists/creators to grow their networks, and consistently produce amazing art/NFTs, and when the current cycle ends and we enter the next bull market, we will all be ready to make the most of it. In addition to building, Brian encourages the community to maintain a dialogue with the Uptick team and discuss what they want, and share any suggestions they have, including what they could do to help Uptick reach its full potential. The NFT business is not about easy money, all parties involved should be focusing on Web 3.0 business strategies, and creating long-term value. Passion and inspiration are the real value of artists’ work. Part-time money grabs are simply not sustainable. Uptick’s IRISNet Validator – Uptick is now inviting community members to stake their IRIS on their validator node if they are not intending to sell/trade it frequently. There is a 21-day lock-up period, but the benefits are supporting Uptick, earning interest, voting, delegating, and receiving future airdrops. This is another metric for Uptick to quantify supporters. An overview of how to stake IRISNet through the Keplr wallet extension is included in the video. Multi Chain Economy Model – Uptick has a very wide vision for the future of NFTs and the team is currently discussing in great detail what their multi-chain economy model will look like. Lastly, Brian talks about IRISNet and why it was selected to be a very strategic partner with Uptick. They were the first to develop NFT functionality within the Cosmos ecosystem and have a great team/superior tech. Uptick wants to connect the EVM world and the IBC (Inter Blockchain Communication) world together. This is a key aspect of the multiple chain economy model that they envision. Uptick is trying to really connect as many different ecosystems together as possible, and enable enhanced multiple chain/token economy models.
Uptick Project is comprised of 3 major elements: 1 - General NFT Marketplace (digital asset exchange) 2 - NFT applications (within the Uptick ecosystem) 3 - NFT Infrastructure (base layer, protocol layer, framework layer) Current Uptick cross-chain status: It is possible to mint on, and switch between the following blockchains within the Uptick Ecosystem: IRIS - BSC - POLYGON - ETHEREUM. By Q2/Q3 2022, Uptick’s cross-chain functionality will allow NFTs minted or purchased on OpenSea to appear within the Uptick ecosystem and vice versa. More and more, Uptick will continue to be more connected to an expanding number of blockchains and marketplaces. What is holding up this process is having to optimize metadata standards and upgrade Uptick’s metadata format to make the interoperability fully functional. The Uptick EVM mainnet will go live in Q2/Q3 2022. Currently, the Uptick chain is in the testnet phase and there are over 200 validators participating in the testing. In conjunction with the testing of the Uptick blockchain, the test version of Uptick NFT Marketplaces (mobile app and web-based) are live in testnet, and running on the Uptick chain, which includes EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) modules. The functionality of the Uptick Token is also being tested. The web-based EVM testnet is at https://market.testflight.uptick.network, and the codename for the EVM NFT app is “Uptopia”. EVM makes the Uptick chain fully compatible with all ERC tokens and enables users to connect using their MetaMask wallets. It will also be functional with the Keplr wallet on the Cosmos ecosystem and will be fully compatible with all other EVM-compatible chains. The Uptick token will be the default token for the Uptick chain. It will be used for (but not limited to): 1 - paying minting/transaction fees 2 - staking 3 - voting (Uptick DAO) 4 - cross-chain token transfer fees via the IBC (Inter-Blockchain Communication) protocol Uptick chose the Cosmos SDK (Software Development Kit) to build the base of the Uptick chain because of the IBC functionality. Uptick is currently building a “multiple chain economy model”. To achieve this, Uptick is also focusing on creating more apps running on the Uptick Chain, in addition to the NFT marketplace app. Another feature that Uptick is developing, in order to assist creators, is allowing for NFT owners’ rights to be clarified when minting NFTs. Currently, it is not certain what you are really getting when you purchase an NFT, but Uptick is going to let creators show what rights (copyright, etc.) the NFT owner will have. Uptick will also have to prepare to include rights management at the code level. A brief timeline of major components/milestones follows: Uptick Project – launched late 2018 Mobile App NFT Marketplace (App Store / Google Play) – launched early 2021 Web-Based NFT Marketplace (UptickNFT.com) – launched early 2022 EVM Testnets – launched early 2022 EVM Mainnets – to go live Q2/Q3 2022 (The basic tech is ready, but Uptick Project is building a multiple chain economy model, and monitoring/considering market sentiment.) Most of the minting is done using IRIS, but BSC, Polygon, and Ethereum built-in wallets are also part of the system. Using the Uptick app is just like using any other regular smartphone app, and users do not notice that it is blockchain-based. The Uptick app is easy to use anytime, anywhere. After you familiarize yourself with the Uptick App, you should try using the web-based marketplace. This requires installing a Chrome Keplr wallet extension (similar to a MetaMask wallet extension) and entering your seed phrase from your Uptick app wallet if you want to sync your web-based account with your mobile marketplace app account.
