GETTING STARTED
What is an NFT?
An NFT (Non-Fungible Token) is a unique token on the blockchain that can be attached to any asset to verify its authenticity and ownership. An NFT is not the artwork itself — it is the license to the artwork that is attached to the digital artwork on the blockchain.
Do NFTs give full rights to an artist’s work?
No, they do not. The NFT purchaser owns a unique hash on the blockchain with a transactional record and a hyperlink to the file of the artwork. The copyright stays retained by the artist unless specified otherwise and an agreement is made between the collector and the artist.
Does my art qualify as “erotic”?
For us, “erotic” doesn’t just mean “sex” or “sexually explicit”. Eroticism is so much more than that. For us, erotic art is not only art intended to evoke erotic arousal and/or depicting human nudity and/or sexual activity; its sexuality is transformed by the human imagination. It’s the thoughts, dreams, anticipation, unruly impulses, and even painful memories which make up our vast erotic landscapes. It’s energized by our entire human experience.
What is a digital wallet?
A ‘digital wallet’ or ‘wallet’ is software (you can also use hardware wallets, more on this later) that you can use to manage your art and other crypto tokens. If you don’t have a wallet yet, we recommend installing Metamask and connecting that to a hardware wallet for maximum security.
Why is a wallet required to sign up?
Nftreats is a non-custodial platform, which means you have full control over your funds, art, or any other crypto tokens in your wallet. A wallet is required to manage your Ethereum, Polygon or Binance Smart Chain account, hold your tokens, and send and receive transactions like sales on Nftreats.
Already have a wallet?
If you have a wallet you would like to use, you need to sign up from a device with that wallet installed. For example, if you use MetaMask on your desktop browsing app (chrome, firefox, brave), to sign in to our site, you will need an active wallet, connected to the Polygon network.
Which wallets do you support? Why isn’t my already existing wallet working?
Currently, we don’t have support for all wallets yet. We currently operate with MetaMask. MetaMask is one of the most used crypto wallets which is very easy to handle and 100% secure.
What network do I have to connect my wallet to?
Nftreats is part of the polygon network (also called MATIC Network), which is a side chain of the Ethereum network. You’ll automatically get asked to connect your wallet to the MATIC network. All you need to do is approve.
Which cryptocurrency do I need to have in my wallet to make a purchase on nftreats?
All art on nftreats is listed in Wmatic at this point. You also need to have a small amount (max 1.0) matic available in your account in order to complete a purchase successfully.
How do I buy wmatic and matic?
Buying wmatic with your local currency can differ from country to country, but we typically recommend Coinbase as the easiest way to purchase.
After buying wmatic / matic – how do I send it to my wallet?
Once you’ve purchased wmatic and a small amount of matic on an exchange like Coinbase, it’s time to send it to your wallet. In order to do this, you’ll need to copy your public wallet address.
You’ll be able to copy your public wallet address by either pressing on the address itself (beginning in 0x…) or pressing a copy address button.
Once you’ve copied your public address, navigate to the Send/Receive section on the exchange you purchased from (On Coinbase this is located in the top right, input your address, the amount of wmatic you’d like to send to it, and press Continue).
Always make sure the address you’re sending to matches the address of your wallet.
Once the transaction completes, you’ll see the amount in your wallet. You are now funded and ready to start buying CryptoArt!
Can I swap a token I already have for wmatic? How?
The art on our marketplace is listed in Wmatic ( wrapped matic). You can take any tokens that you hold and swap them for Wmatic. The best site to use to swap coins is Quick Swap. Remember that you have to be connected to the matic network when you want to swap.
HOW TO OPERATE ON NFTREATS
Do I have to be 18 to mint art on nftreats?
Absolutely. Since we are an ethical adult content marketplace, only adults are allowed to mint content on our platform. We want our page to be ethical, inclusive and safe for everyone.
How do I buy art?
Once MetaMask is installed, login, then go to nftreats.art and “Sign In” using the MetaMask.

Once you’ve made the account you just need to send some Matic or Wmatic to the MetaMask wallet to begin buying artworks. Click here for a tutorial on how to send tokens to your MetaMask.
Are there any countries where your platform cannot operate in?
Technically nftreats is available everywhere. If you want to mint work though, you will have to go through a simple know-your-customer (KYC) procedure.

Why is there a verification process for creators?
Since we are a porn inclusive and erotic art platform, we need to make sure that all creators on nftreats are 18 or older. This is the only reason for the verification. We do not collect your data to use for marketing or advertisement purposes. We simply need to make sure we are creating a safe space for creating and enjoying erotic content.
I finished the verification process, but I am still not able to mint work on the platform. What can I do?
Don’t worry. This can happen sometimes. If you’ve finished the verification process but are still not able to mint work. Please take a screenshot of the verified message and send it to us via contact@nftreats.art or contact one of our admins via discord. We will enable the create option for you manually.

How do I convert crypto back into cash?
via an exchange like FTX, Coinbase or Binance or via the digital wallet provider lifestyle.money
Once minted, how long is it before an unpurchased NFT expires?
There is no expiration date. Once your NFT is minted on the blockchain, it stays there forever. You can, however, unlist it (which removes it from being on sale) or burn it, which makes it impossible for anyone to view or interact with the NFT (including yourself).
Is there a mechanism to collect royalties?
Yes. We have a royalty system implemented, so artists can profit from secondary sales. forever.
Can I set the amount of the royalty?
Royalties are 15%

Yes, you can! Make sure to add some detail about it in the description of the piece. The unlockable content will only be visible to the collector of the piece.
Is your platform working with proof of work or proof of stake?
We are operating with proof of stake. One of our major goals is to make our platform as environmentally friendly as possible. Read all about it in our blog post about sustainability and nftreats.
Do you have any fiat payment options?
At the moment you can only pay with crypto payments. But we are working on implementing FIAT payments, so this will be available to you very soon.
Do the buyers have to pay a fee to buy?
No. Gas Fees are covered entirely by us.
