PROBLEMThe Challenge
Needed to balance liquidity, governance, and creator incentives in a single protocol design.
✓
SOLVEDThe Solution
Designed ERC-1155-based asset model and DAO governance flows, including platform selection research and tradeoffs.
Technical Deep Dive
Data NFTization & DAO Platform
Developed an innovative platform that transforms data assets into NFTs and implements a DAO-based governance system for NFT sales participation.
System Architecture
Data Asset Tokenization
Designed a comprehensive system to convert data into tradable NFT assets with verifiable ownership and usage rights.
Supported Data Types:
- ▶Research datasets
- ▶Analytics reports
- ▶Market intelligence
- ▶User behavior data
- ▶Proprietary algorithms
ERC-1155 Multi-Token System
Implemented ERC-1155 standard for efficient multi-token management.
solidity// Data NFT Multi-Token Contract contract DataNFT is ERC1155, Ownable { struct DataAsset { string dataHash; // IPFS hash of encrypted data string metadataURI; // Metadata location uint256 totalSupply; // Maximum editions uint256 price; // Base price per token address creator; // Data provider uint256 royaltyPercent; // Royalty for creator bool transferable; // Can be resold } mapping(uint256 => DataAsset) public dataAssets; uint256 public nextTokenId; function mintDataNFT( string memory dataHash, string memory metadataURI, uint256 supply, uint256 price, uint256 royaltyPercent ) external returns (uint256) { uint256 tokenId = nextTokenId++; dataAssets[tokenId] = DataAsset({ dataHash: dataHash, metadataURI: metadataURI, totalSupply: supply, price: price, creator: msg.sender, royaltyPercent: royaltyPercent, transferable: true }); _mint(msg.sender, tokenId, supply, ""); emit DataAssetMinted(tokenId, msg.sender, dataHash); return tokenId; } }
DAO Governance System
NFT Sales Participation
Implemented a unique DAO mechanism where token holders vote on which data NFTs to list for sale.
solidity// DAO Governance Contract contract DataNFTDAO { struct Proposal { uint256 tokenId; // NFT to be listed uint256 proposedPrice; // Suggested sale price uint256 votesFor; uint256 votesAgainst; uint256 deadline; bool executed; mapping(address => bool) hasVoted; } mapping(uint256 => Proposal) pub proposals; uint256 public proposalCount; uint256 public constant QUORUM = 30; // 30% participation required uint256 public constant APPROVAL_THRESHOLD = 60; // 60% approval needed function createProposal( uint256 tokenId, uint256 proposedPrice ) external returns (uint256) { require(governanceToken.balanceOf(msg.sender) > 0, "No voting power"); uint256 proposalId = proposalCount++; Proposal storage proposal = proposals[proposalId]; proposal.tokenId = tokenId; proposal.proposedPrice = proposedPrice; proposal.deadline = block.timestamp + 7 days; emit ProposalCreated(proposalId, tokenId, proposedPrice); return proposalId; } function vote(uint256 proposalId, bool support) external { Proposal storage proposal = proposals[proposalId]; require(block.timestamp < proposal.deadline, "Voting ended"); require(!proposal.hasVoted[msg.sender], "Already voted"); uint256 votingPower = governanceToken.balanceOf(msg.sender); if (support) { proposal.votesFor += votingPower; } else { proposal.votesAgainst += votingPower; } proposal.hasVoted[msg.sender] = true; } function executeProposal(uint256 proposalId) external { Proposal storage proposal = proposals[proposalId]; require(block.timestamp >= proposal.deadline, "Voting ongoing"); require(!proposal.executed, "Already executed"); uint256 totalVotes = proposal.votesFor + proposal.votesAgainst; uint256 totalSupply = governanceToken.totalSupply(); require( totalVotes * 100 / totalSupply >= QUORUM, "Quorum not reached" ); require( proposal.votesFor * 100 / totalVotes >= APPROVAL_THRESHOLD, "Proposal rejected" ); proposal.executed = true; marketplace.listNFT(proposal.tokenId, proposal.proposedPrice); } }
NFT Royalty System
Perpetual Creator Rewards
Designed sophisticated royalty distribution ensuring creators benefit from secondary sales.
soliditycontract RoyaltyManager { struct RoyaltyInfo { address recipient; uint256 percentage; // Basis points (100 = 1%) } mapping(uint256 => RoyaltyInfo[]) public royalties; function setRoyalties( uint256 tokenId, address[] memory recipients, uint256[] memory percentages ) external onlyCreator(tokenId) { require(recipients.length == percentages.length, "Length mismatch"); uint256 totalPercent = 0; for (uint256 i = 0; i < percentages.length; i++) { totalPercent += percentages[i]; royalties[tokenId].push(RoyaltyInfo({ recipient: recipients[i], percentage: percentages[i] })); } require(totalPercent <= 2000, "Max 20% royalty"); } function distributeRoyalties(uint256 tokenId, uint256 salePrice) internal { RoyaltyInfo[] storage royaltyInfo = royalties[tokenId]; for (uint256 i = 0; i < royaltyInfo.length; i++) { uint256 amount = (salePrice * royaltyInfo[i].percentage) / 10000; payable(royaltyInfo[i].recipient).transfer(amount); } } }
Royalty Features:
- ▶Multi-recipient support (split royalties among collaborators)
- ▶Customizable percentages per NFT
- ▶Automatic distribution on every sale
- ▶Immutable once set to ensure trust
Blockchain Platform Research
Multi-Chain Evaluation
Conducted comprehensive analysis of blockchain platforms for optimal project requirements:
Evaluated Platforms:
- ▶Ethereum: High security, established ecosystem, but expensive gas
- ▶Polygon: Low fees, Ethereum compatibility, good for scaling
- ▶Klaytn: Asian market focus, fast finality, moderate fees
- ▶BSC: Low cost, wide adoption, centralization concerns
- ▶Solana: High throughput, low cost, but different programming model
Selection Criteria:
- ▶Transaction cost vs. throughput
- ▶Smart contract capabilities
- ▶Developer ecosystem
- ▶Target market accessibility
- ▶Security and decentralization
Final Selection: Ethereum + Polygon (L2)
- ▶Ethereum for high-value assets
- ▶Polygon for frequent transactions and lower-value data sets

Data Flow
- ▶Upload: User uploads data → Backend encrypts → Stores on IPFS
- ▶Mint: User mints NFT with IPFS hash → Smart contract records ownership
- ▶Propose: Token holder proposes listing → DAO contract creates proposal
- ▶Vote: Community votes on proposal → Votes recorded on-chain
- ▶Execute: If approved, NFT listed on marketplace
- ▶Purchase: Buyer purchases → Royalties auto-distributed → Data access key transferred
