The Mint Window Dilemma Revisited
Creating an NFT involves a series of decisions, including navigating the complexities of the "Mint Window Dilemma." Given the constraints, four distinct mint window types emerge based on the interplay between mint duration and edition size:
● Airdrop Mint - Characterized by a large number of NFTs minted to a single or multiple addresses during a short duration
● Infinite Mint - Sometimes referred to as “free and forever,” this mint sustains popularity with collectors and remains perpetually open with no end date
● Niche Mint - Includes 1/1s or small quantities available to be minted in a tight time frame
● Hidden Mint - Akin to an Infinite Mint, but yet to be discovered by collectors and potentially encompassing work not yet brought onchain by a First Minter
We can expect to encounter all four mint windows, and their variations, as experimentation continues at the intersection of scarcity and rarity.
