Original title: “Berry Cards — A NFT Application That Can Mining”

Berry Cards is an NFT market for generating artworks created by community members using pixels at Berryclub.io. The market is based on the NEAR protocol. NEAR’s high TPS, low gas, and high scalability enable community members to conduct DAO and vote at low cost. Buy their favorite NFT works, and then sell these cards again in the market. In addition, Berry Card also has many different features from other NFT markets.

Dynamic pricing

First, the owners of NFTs cannot price their works. This work is done by Berry Card (also known as Berry Card). Community members vote for the artwork they like, and a pixel artwork gains value for the first time. Everyone with a NEAR wallet can log in to Berry Cards and vote on the cards they like. Entering the homepage of the official website, the website will show users two random cards, and users can click to select their favorite card. After that, the value of the card they choose will increase by 10%, while the value of the other card will decrease by 10%. This is a simple and elegant way to create a fair price for NFTs because it reflects what the entire community (not one person) considers the most valuable. In a literal sense, this is “voting with a wallet.”

Card = shared artboard

Berry Card is not made by one person, it may be designed and made by a group of people. BerryClub.io users can organize and coordinate by using the chat room, carry out division of labor and collaboration on the drawing board, and discuss what changes or designs are made. Such a design will inspire team consciousness and cooperative spirit. This makes Berry Cards even more special, which means that many people have already used this shared drawing board, and will do unlimited creation, graffiti and mining. This is one of the reasons why no one can set a price for Berry Card, because Berry Cards are driven by the community, so it is more fair to let the community set the price.

People can use avocado (a token that runs on the NEAR mainnet) to draw graffiti on the drawing board of BerryClub.io. At the time of writing, 1 NEAR token can be exchanged for 250 avocados. When you use (or grow) avocado on the drawing board, you can earn money every day.

Unable to withdraw from the market

Unlike markets like OpenSea , users cannot delist Berry cards purchased from the market. On the contrary, after the user purchases the Berry Card, the card will be automatically added to the market again, but its price will increase to reflect the user’s purchase. Berry Card does not want everyone to compete for the ownership of the card, but to participate in the interaction of the community, and while doing so, let users earn part of the profit. When you buy a Berry Card, most of the funds will go to the previous owner, although 10% of the funds will go to the art DAO, and 1% of the commission will go to the app itself. The artwork DAO is an important part of the NEAR ecosystem. This part of the funds will then be used to encourage new artists to enter the Berry Cards and other NFT markets that use the NEAR network. When the card is purchased, its value will increase by 20%. So if someone wants to buy this card from you, you will get a portion of the profit.

In order to experience this application, I bought a Berry Card, the price is 2.41N. This card had a previous owner, so even though DAO also earned 10% of its revenue, the previous owner still got most of the profit from it. After that, the card was relaunched on the market at a new price of 2.89N. If someone buys the card from me, then I will get 2.57N. This may not seem like a lot, but when you have a more expensive card, these profits will increase greatly. If the value of NEAR increases, then these profits will also increase. *Note-The price of the card may rise or fall due to people’s votes.

Another reason why Berry Cards cannot be delisted is that they have always existed. Even if you buy a card, people on the Berry Club can still use avocado to add pixels to edit the card. Withdrawing the card from the market will cause damage to the entire community, which is contrary to the design concept of the project to connect others and unite the community.

Not owned by anyone

If you explore the Berry Cards market, you will find that many cards are not owned by anyone. These are cards created by Berry Club, but have not been purchased by anyone in the Berry Cards market. By default, these cards belong to the art DAO, so if you buy them, 99% of the profits will go to the DAO account, these funds will be used to support other artists, and 1% of the income will be used for application commissions. The commission is used to maintain the normal operation of Berry Cards and maintain the contract to receive capital injection.

Why use Berry Cards?

There are several reasons why fans of NFT, Amber and Chain Circle are deeply attracted by BerryCard. First of all, NEAR’s good scalability and cheap gas fees enable such deeply interactive projects (such as Berry Cards and Berry Club) to exist. Both of these projects will stimulate user activity and encourage users to actively interact with applications, which is currently not possible in Ethereum. This means that people can use Berry Card with confidence because it is always friendly and efficient to traders and creators of Berry Club. Understanding that these projects will be cheap and running fast for a long time will motivate people to explore them to a large extent, and firmly believe that these projects will not be out of date in the future.

Pricing is fair and reasonable

Another advantage of Berry Cards is that the pricing is fair and reasonable. If you quickly browse OpenSea and other NFT markets, you will find that the prices of a large number of artworks are inflated. This is mainly because people chase NFT hot trends and set their prices very high, hoping that newcomers will pay for it so that they can also make money. However, Berry Cards prevents this from happening by dynamically pricing its works, where users of Berry Cards can help set the price of each work. This means that all content is priced by algorithms and mathematical principles. It may be the fairest pricing system in all the NFT markets I have encountered.

The last main reason for using Berry Cards is that it is designed to support the NFT digital art community. As mentioned above, 10% of the income from the purchase of any card goes to the DAO (if no one owns the card, then 99% of the income goes to the DAO). The funds held by Art DAO were subsequently used by NEAR developers to invest in the growing NFT market and encourage artists to participate in the NFT world. Therefore, by buying and selling Berry Cards, you are actively supporting the digital art community.

Write at the end

Berry Cards is one of many innovative NFT projects running on NEAR. By allowing people to buy and sell community-driven pixel art, use its funds to help artists, and dynamically set prices through user participation, it creates a project that supports the art world, encourages collaboration, and sets fair prices for its content. This is a very innovative project that fully demonstrates the high efficiency and low cost of the NEAR protocol.
