What are bookbridge collectibles?

How do I get a bookbridge collectible?

Are bookbridge collectibles unique?

bookbridge collectibles come as 1/1 originals, as limited series or – seldomly, for a certain period of time – as open editions (like printed books).

In any case, each bookbridge collectible is a digital creation which has been digitally signed by its creator. It is uniquely identified on the blockchain and can only be owned by a single individual. Offered on the platform Creatokia, every creation is ready to be minted as a unique Non-Fungible Token (NFT). This token provides proof of ownership and authenticity.


What blockchain does bookbridge use?

bookbridge is built on the Ethereum Blockchain (Proof of Stake, PoS)


Why bookbridge? What does the name stand for?

Creatively connecting the traditional world of books to new blockchain technologies, we fancy the manifold meaning of the word bridge as symbol of communication and union, of connection or transition.

In the analog world, we enjoy building bridges between old school readers and crypto-natives, reminding them how much they have in common.

In the digital web3 context, a bridge is a protocol which links blockchain systems together, allowing users from one system to send assets and information to another.

You see, it’s all about getting closer and communicating with each other!


Is the carbon footprint of NFTs ecologically sound?

Ethereum, the world’s most used blockchain for NFTs, has recently changed its system to so called “Proof of Stake (PoS)”  to determine the validity of transactions on its blockchain. Transactions are validated by a group of individuals and corporations that have staked their own tokens as collateral for the security of the network. This process requires far fewer people to constantly validate blocks on the chain, and thus uses 99 % less energy than the earlier “Proof of Work” system.
