On-Chain Minting

Definition

On-Chain Minting refers to the process of creating new digital assets, such as cryptocurrencies or non-fungible tokens, directly on a blockchain network. This involves executing a smart contract function that generates and records the unique identifier and associated metadata for the new asset within the distributed ledger. Once minted, the asset exists as a verifiable entry on the blockchain, ensuring its authenticity and ownership. This method offers transparency and immutability for digital asset creation.
