Welcome to our interview series with the Founder and CEO of <a href="https://nftmall.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">NFTmall</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/wolverinv2?lang&#61;en" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MD Rakib Ahamed</a>. In this series, we had the opportunity to sit down with the Rakib to have a deeper chat and learn more about the platform and its goals.In this interview series, we asked the team behind <a href="https://nftmall.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">NFTmall</a> about Why <a href="https://nftmall.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">NFTmall</a>, their vision for the platform, how they plan to differentiate themselves from other NFT marketplaces, and what they see as the future of NFTs. So, without further ado, let’s dive into our conversation with the team behind <a href="https://nftmall.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">NFTmall</a>.<blockquote>What inspired you to create NFTmall, and what sets it apart from other NFT marketplaces?</blockquote>Ans: The initial concept and idea of NFTmall have developed some time ago in Mid 2020, as I have been a crypto investor and researcher and was researching existing NFT marketplaces and their limitations. I came to realize that monopolies and international entities were taking advantage of creators/Artists for many years by creating a huge barrier to entry! For example, traditionally, Artists have to physically produce a piece of artwork, get it accepted by a gallery, promote the exhibition and sell it.Also, in the case of a verification test, the authenticity of an Art is determined by an Art expert panel by carrying out costly tests! This complex process involves a considerable barrier of entry and hinders creativity; as a result, creators often don’t get enough exposure and have to market their work instead of focusing on creation. The traditional approach hinders creators, but it also hinders creativity in general since younger artists may not afford the entry requirement to use the various platforms.This problem can be overcome using blockchain technology to synergise Defi and NFTs since It simplifies ART creation in NFTs and logs entry of an ART piece/ NFT in the blockchain, which can’t be counterfeited and rewarded relatively. It affords artists or creators alike the chance to create and earn royalties in perpetuity. And thus create a level playing field for talented individuals. Since it’s a very new concept and the market for digital items starts to generate. Existing top-tier digital items / NFT marketplaces do not fully satisfy the needs of their users. They do not solve the issue by having high platform fees to mint or list, Primary and secondary sells, and even royalty fees for creators who are not independent usually chosen by Marketplace! Also, most of them are not decentralised and require application and permission. More importantly, none of them offers or Provides a solution to the Physical redemption/materialisation of NFTs! Thus, they act as a monopoly for users and possess a high barrier of entry and fail to create a fair &amp; level playing field for their users (creators, collectors, and traders). By deeply considering the limitations of existing marketplaces, I was stirring at the market gap and had to pick up the challenge to provide a solution which I called NFTmall.Medium Read:<a href="https://nftmall.medium.com/introducing-nftmall-where-nft-meets-defi-and-ecommerce-507fa8319544" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> https://nftmall.medium.com/introducing-nftmall-where-nft-meets-defi-and-ecommerce-507fa8319544</a><blockquote>Could you tell us details about NFT Galleries on NFTmall 3D Metaverse?</blockquote>Ans: Recently we have launched NFTmall 3D Metaverse and currently the access is private to the various tire GEM hodlers.You are going to the future.

These galleries allow users to teleport using custom or lifelike avatars, interact with fellow members, and shop from a range of displayed NFTs.

This dedicated space will showcase ThunderCore NFT collections and individual ThunderCore NFTs, providing a unique experience for collectors and enthusiasts alike.<blockquote>Could you walk us through the process of creating and listing an NFT on NFTmall?</blockquote>Ans: Minting &amp; Listing of both ERC721 &amp; ERC1155 NFTs on NFTmall is quite straightforward and simple and can be done in a few clicks without a single line of code.

They have gained a lot of attention in recent years, particularly in the art world, where they have been used to sell digital artworks for significant amounts of money. The current NFT industry compresses multi-billion dollars and in the near future, I look forward and expect it to be hitting the Trillion dollar mark.One of the primary benefits of NFTs is that they allow artists and collectors to monetise digital creations that were previously difficult to sell or value. By attaching an NFT to a digital artwork or collectible, creators can verify its authenticity, rarity, and ownership, which can increase its value in the eyes of collectors.Furthermore, NFTs allow for greater transparency in the art and collectibles markets, as each transaction is recorded on the blockchain, creating a permanent record of ownership and provenance. This transparency can help to reduce fraud and counterfeit items in the market, which is a significant problem in the art world.However, Along with Bitcoin, NFTs have also been criticised for their environmental impact, as the process of minting an NFT and recording it on the blockchain requires a significant amount of energy, which is not true in my opinion. Additionally, some have raised concerns about the speculative nature of the NFT market and the potential for it to be a bubble that could burst.Overall, it is still early to predict the future role of NFTs in the art and collectibles markets, as the technology is still developing and the market is constantly evolving. However, it is clear that NFTs have already disrupted the traditional art world and have the potential to offer new opportunities for artists and collectors in the digital age.<blockquote>How does NFTmall plan to attract new users and build a strong community around its platform?</blockquote>Ans:<ol><li>Marketing campaigns: We look forward to launch targeted marketing campaigns to attract new users to the platform. This could involve advertising on social media, creating content (such as blog posts or videos) to showcase its unique features, and partnering with influencers or other brands to reach a wider audience.</li><li>User incentives: NFTmall already offer multiple incentives to its users including NFT Drops, Hodl &amp; Earn, Buy Back and Burn, access to NFTmall 3D Metaverse etc. <a href="https://nftmall.io/gem" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://nftmall.io/gem</a>in the near future, we look forward to adding further utilities and use-cases to encourage new users to sign up and use the platform. For example, Zero platform fees regardless, currently users enjoy Zero platform fees trading NFTs using GEM tokens and reward users for referring their friends to the platform. (Affiliate program)</li><li>Community building: We look forward to strengthening our community by hosting events, creating a stronger social media presence and engaging with users to build relationships. This could help to foster a sense of loyalty and belonging among users, which could lead to increased engagement and usage of the platform.</li><li>Platform features: NFTmall like to furthermore differentiate itself from competitors by offering unique features or functionality that are not available elsewhere. This includes the materialisation of NFTs and being able to project the NFTs into any surface to their materialise form using our upcoming AR App.</li><li>Partnership and collaborations: NFTmall looks forward to working with other reputed projects/companies, artists, or creators to offer exclusive NFTs, collaborations, or events that could help attract new users and build a stronger community.</li></ol>Overall, NFTmall look forward to using a combination of thesetactics to attract new users and build a strong communityaround its platform.<blockquote>What advice would you give to developers interested in building decentralized applications on the ThunderCore blockchain?</blockquote>Ans: If you’re a developer interested in building decentralized applications (dApps) on the ThunderCore blockchain, here are a few pieces of advice to help you get started:Understand the basics of blockchain technology: Before you start building on any blockchain platform, it’s important to have a solid understanding of the underlying technology.
