💡What is a pNFT?

A Physical Non-Fungible Token (pNFT) is a unique digital representation backed by a physical product, embodying a novel standard created by Galileo to mirror the product throughout its entire lifecycle. Key features and attributes are encapsulated within the pNFT, enriching it with a comprehensive description of the associated physical item.

Characteristics of pNFT:

  1. Backed by a Physical Product: Each pNFT is intrinsically linked to a tangible, real-world item, providing a digital manifestation of its physical counterpart.

  2. Attributes and Description: The pNFT holds detailed attributes and a comprehensive description, ensuring a thorough representation of the associated product.

  3. Galileo Standard: A standardized approach by Galileo guarantees consistent mirroring of the product throughout its lifecycle, fostering transparency and authenticity.

  4. Proof of Authenticity Records: Proof of authenticity (POA) records can be attached at both the attribute and pNFT levels, reinforcing the legitimacy of the token.

  5. Digital Trail: A digital trail is left behind whenever the metadata, media is updated or pNFT is transferred, offering a transparent and traceable history of the pNFT.

  6. Permissioned Metadata Updates: The pNFT allows permissioned updates of metadata, providing control to the issuer and owner over modifications.

  7. Digital Identity: Functioning as a digital identity, the pNFT can denote belonging to a specific group or holding a part of a collection, akin to a membership card.

  8. Loyalty Card: Considered a loyalty card, the pNFT can unlock additional privileges and benefits for the holder.

  9. Token Gated Access: It can be utilized for token-gated access to exclusive content or websites, enhancing user engagement.

  10. Raffles/Lotteries: The pNFT can participate in raffles or lotteries, offering an interactive and gamified experience.

  11. Gifts in Blockchain: Serving as a unique gift, pNFTs can be exchanged on the blockchain, creating a novel and personalized gifting experience.

  12. Cross-platform viewability: pNFTs created through the system can be viewed and accessed across multiple platforms. This functionality allows users to showcase and interact with their digital assets within the system's environment and on external marketplaces like Galileo, Opensea, Rarible, and more.

  13. Unique Serial Number : Every pNFT generated by the system is assigned a unique serial number. This serial number serves as a distinctive identifier for the digital asset, enabling traceability, authentication, and potential scarcity verification for collectors and enthusiasts.

In essence, a pNFT represents a powerful convergence of the physical and digital realms, providing a versatile and dynamic tokenization solution.
