NFTs, short for Non-Fungible Tokens, are unique digital assets that are cryptographically secured on a blockchain, enabling their exchange and transfer. NFTs are often associated with digital content like images, videos, or audio files.

Minting is the process of creating a new NFT. When you redeem your Art Edition NFT, you will go through the minting process to generate your unique digital collectible, registering it on the Ethereum blockchain.

As the claim process is secured through a scratch off within the physical copy of the book, you will be able to claim your NFT upon delivery of your Art Edition book.

The claim function for your NFT has been inserted physically into your book. Upon your receival of your On NFTs Art Edition, all minting details will be provided, including a claim code and link to TASCHEN's online claim portal.

Each On NFTs Art Edition comes with one NFT.

You can use an existing Ethereum wallet or opt to use Crossmint, which offers the option to pay with a credit card via a custodial wallet solution.

Crypto wallets securely store your private keys, which are like passwords granting you access to your NFTs and cryptocurrency. They ensure the safe and convenient sending and receiving of NFTs and digital currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.

To mint your Art Edition NFT you will only need to pay a small transaction fee for the claim. For those using an Ethereum digital wallet, you will need up to 0.05 Eth to cover the transaction fee. If you are minting the NFT using your credit card, there will be a small fee of a few dollars.

Hosting and functionality for the claim system on taschen.com will be supported for a minimum of 2 years post launch.

The architecture of the claim process is such that it can be done directly on the blockchain itself, without the need for a third party such as TASCHEN, for as long as Ethereum exists. Should you wish to claim your Art Edition NFT directly via the blockchain, detailed instructions will be made available via email, social media, and on taschen.com in due course.
