Todays post has an airdrop Many people that know of NFTs think that ETH is the best place for this (its not). I will explain exactly how EOSIO derived assets are just the better option and teach you how to make the best NFTs with the lowest gas fees, Not only that but one lucky reader will get some free NFTs and crypto to start making your own collection today.
Given I have produced NFTs on 4 separate blockchains and have been in the crypto sector since 2018 I know a great deal about this topic not only this I'm quite the accomplished NFT vendor with over $3,000 worth of NFTs sold not bad for someone without any background in the tech or investment sector. I have nearly written a book with all of my combined Hive, Leofinance, Steemit,& PublishOx posts and have personally made1,000s of my own NFTs and sold over $100 worth of NFTs I made.
Though this can come off as me bragging its simply there to clarify in this industry where education and experience are rarely taken into account, That this information is extremely valuable. By publishing here I'm wasting my time this is strictly for you the readers benefit, most of these posts are either well researched and valuable insight into the crypto markets or systems, or get rich quick schemes dumping referrals trying to make money off the reader in a underhanded manner.
While yes ill be giving out several referrals or links to projects its not about making me money nothing that would be made would be worth the effort, I'm actively going to loose about $50 or more taking the time to write this up.
Why not ETH
Yes ETH posses the capability of being viable for NFTs again with lower gas fees due to the nature of the ETH 2.0 upgrade and how sharding operates, This is not going to work forever. For those unaware of how Blockchain games on ETH operate the transactional data and the game data are mostly processed through the devices CPU, while graphics processing is left more or less unused. Due to this simple lack of full utilization of system components these games are often rudimentary and slow or server based and laggy requiring a fast internet connection and a lot of bandwidth. Given the sharding capabilities you could effectively use a botnet approach to distribute the workload but this will only exacerbate the level of internet bandwidth use. However this is currently not even the problem users face its gas fees, by the way I attended a live ama last fall with the individuals in charge of the ETH 2.0 upgrade and read the white paper beforehand I asked if they could utilize the 40x faster mining speed to help minimize gas fees on transactional hash. There response boiled down to ETH was the only potential contender and even laughed at the possibility of EOSIO based projects.
This was a half of year ago they where wrong what we are seeing in the ETH network is an intentional cash grab intended to squeeze every user of the blockchain and profit from it. Many blockchain projects came to the same conclusion I did, that this is extortion.
Splinterlands allowed for ETH blockchain interaction with their NFTs but not anymore the gas fees are even getting to publishOx, While ETH has been running the boots to the customers many blockchain companies set out to deal with the problems created by this immediate loss of the primary NFT and alt token Blockchain. Some of the better projects even got out but allow users to get back in if they so choose via cross chain integration splinter lands is one KOGS another.
WAX
with now over a million users, NFTs with real world equivalent packs of cards with corresponding QR codes to the WAX NFTs, & a cloud based system/ wallet. WAX is a serious contender that should terrify ETH.
They offer a WAX bridge so exchanging assets between EOSIO and ETH is facilitated by your wallet, You can make from my experience some of the most in depth NFTs with multiple levels features and much much more.
WAX has gotten rid of the GAS system users stake or outright purchase system RAM for transactions but you can make NFTs for free you can sell about 30 for the cost of a penny in USD.
Literally some of the best NFT collections and companies are exclusively on WAX those that aren't are trying to integrate we just got upland and Banano NFTs on WAX. Splinterlands NFTs transfer and sell on WAX easily through https://wax.atomichub.io/market Currently I am selling around $1,800 worth of NFTs there according to there appraisal but this is a conservative number it could be close to about $5,000 in an ideal market. None of this figure is the NFTs I'm making which is as I stated free.
These are set to a market price on the low end I literally have the cheapest on the market all together I spent around $35 on nearly $1,000 worth of NFTs from major companies. I do this through purchasing packs and selling the contents if you at least have a negligible loss you can effectively profit on this sort of system. Splinterlands is by far the cheapest and works with paypal or crypto on hive engine, webwallet, or WAX cloud wallet. KOGs is also a solid bet at $10 a pack for pack of 12 KOGS but this has to be through WAX or their RFOX ERC20.
I mint NFTs through WAX specifically through https://wax.atomichub.io/market Its the best NFT generation have ever used its intuitive well thought out and gives creators an astonishing level of control. for those looking to go a step further for instance somebody with coding or visual design experience looking to do something major but lacking the monetary backing they even have WAX labs (think crowd source NFT or Dapp projects on WAX) Giving talent a start they deserve and will inevitably facilitate growth and innovation on WAX.
Free games to make money on WAX Best choice is
I have sold my mined NFTs from them for $56 the other free games on WAX I never personally profited on so I'm going to skip them
A NFT collection Dapp for WAX with social message and chat function with a roadmap indicating near future revenue through their NFT collection and daily log in system. It is a referral but the social function may make NFT gifting possible so its worth using

Mint your Own NFT
minor clarification in order to better understand something My NFTs are predominantly cannabis related or just straight up cannabis, This is legally bought from a store and with in compliance with local law enforcement, as this isn't the case every where Images of trichome formations are in short supply so to supplement my habit I began licensing photos of strains Trichome development. Due to this I have quite the stockpile of images and generate NFTs with this 100% original content.
107 original cannabis NFTs so far I have a specail airdrop on Weedcash this 4/20 in my post Titled 4/20 airdrop unlike todays Airdrop (which can only be claimed by a single person) just list your WAX wallet address in the comments and up to 42 airdrops will be given out with exclusive event only NFTs. My first airdrop with the cronic cards line launch has an extremely high resale value as very few where ever made. I give away 5 NFTs to every recipient of any airdrop and a lucky few on 4/20 Get joint NFTs with attached crypto that can be received by burning.
How to begin minting your own NFTs first open
https://wax.atomichub.io/market
sign in with WAX cloud wallet, then click NFT creator at the top
once here you will have to make a Collection
This essentially will represent an individual group of interconnected schema for NFTs a grouping represented usually by a connected theme or design, its important to include your info on said collection social media or sites you can be reached on preferably a website though not a requirement I dont have one but listed my HIVE account. Whitelisting or approving your collection for advertising requires this level of clarity and shouldn't be understated.
Please reference these guides they are much more qualified to explain the specifics of which there are many
https://medium.com/@pinknetwork/guide-using-the-atomichub-nft-creator-7bd2b017224b
Now that step one is done we have to make a schema or schematic detailing the NFT attributes as well as its grouping meaning multiple schema can exist in one collection. Each schema can represent as many NFTs with the desired features that are outlined in the schema.
Please understand this is difficult and though I'm giving you a rough outline please reference the official guides above.
Once your schema and collection have been made you can either make NFTs one at a time which isn't recommended I personally use stencils or a NFT design which can be saved and used when needed to make another NFT of that type it also allows you to limit the Number that can ever be minted Giving the NFT an artificial scarcity that when popular can increase value. I personally sell my best Made NFTs for $0.50 a piece its better to be realistic and at this price I still profit and people are more willing to purchase something impulsively at the lower price.
once you made your NFTs (only 10 can be produced at once but can be done repeatedly) Go over to your Atomic Hub NFT inventory listed at the top right of the screen.
My NFT is the 420 one in the middle just like any NFT on WAX you click list on market set the price and wait for a customer. Here is the pat that costs a small amount of money you either need to purchase RAM or stake enough WAX to generate it daily. It will only cost around 5 WAX for 30 listings or more WAX is easily purchased through the services listed on your wallet but in increments of $20 or more for those with very little to spend Kucoin has a large fee but is overall the lowest amount of money.
I will throw in a Joint that has WAX attached with todays 1 time claim airdrop for one lucky reader
Hive
WAX has them beat for NFT generation but you can and I have minted through NFT showroom on Hive but they are art I'm shock value stoner cards and stickers we are not really in the same market. For legit artists this is best its more like a Showroom for art and even to mint there you have to have a portfolio of work reviewed by a panel.
If not on Hive yet do yourself the favor and join its difficult to get started with all the keys and stuff but just use hive signer or keychain its a whole lot easier. Another community first Blockchain Hive has several NFT assets and Games and what is arguably the best Blockchain Game in the world Splinterlands. You can join using my referral its a good idea if you want free NFTs i give out 5 NFTs a day every day its possible, if unless otherwise unable to do so I give out 40 NFTs every month.

Hive account
A hive game usually costs a little money to play around $5-$10 Its not that hard to get because like publishOx Hive is a blog with a crypto reward for content and interaction.
However the following game referral is for Rising star completely free Blockchain game with crypto and NFTs on Hive that can actually be quite profitable for those whom grind game levels or use faucets for crypto I was there once it gets better hang in there.
https://www.risingstargame.com?referrer=chubb149
Overall its possible to profit on Hive with no money put in but its easier if you have HP or HIVE Points delegated to your account making every upvote and post pay more. I started with $20 I now have a little over $500 However this is my intentional shelf for profit to be spent elsewhere for example Splinterlands assets which I sell on WAX.
I can airdrop right to twitter accounts now
dont know what I'm going to do with this yet but I figured out how to just gift NFTs to twitter accounts so you may want to follow me on twitter nothing yet but I think ill be utilizing this feature soon.

4/20 Air Drop
Sorry to sound like a broken record about this but I'm just making sure all my readers know this 4/20 I'm doing my second NFT airdrop. First 42 people to leave their WAX wallet address on my Weedcash post on 4/20 Titled 4/20 airdrop get exclusive event only NFTs & a NFT joint with WAXP reward to burn.
More free wax nfts try either of these services that could be really helpful for new users looking to get more assets.
