# 2.5 NFT Integration for AI Monsters

AI MONSTER leverages the Solana blockchain to create unique, tradable, and upgradable NFTs for each generated monster. This integration allows for a dynamic and interactive ecosystem where monsters can evolve, be trained, and gain value over time.

### **2.2.1 Advanced NFT Minting Process**

Each AI-generated monster is minted as a unique NFT on the Solana blockchain, ensuring verifiable ownership and scarcity. Our minting process incorporates the following advanced features:

1. **On-chain Metadata**: We store critical monster attributes directly on-chain for improved transparency and accessibility.
2. **Upgradable NFTs**: Utilizing Metaplex's Token Metadata program to allow for future upgrades and modifications.
3. **Royalty Distribution**: Implementing a fair royalty system that rewards original creators and contributors to monster evolution.

Here's an enhanced example of minting an AI Monster NFT on Solana:

```javascript
const web3 = require("@solana/web3.js");
const { Metaplex, keypairIdentity, bundlrStorage } = require("@metaplex-foundation/js");
const { DataV2, createCreateMetadataAccountV3Instruction } = require("@metaplex-foundation/mpl-token-metadata");

async function mintAIMonsterNFT(connection, payer, monsterData) {
  const metaplex = Metaplex.make(connection)
    .use(keypairIdentity(payer))
    .use(bundlrStorage());

  // Create on-chain metadata
  const { uri: metadataUri } = await metaplex.nfts().uploadMetadata({
    name: monsterData.name,
    symbol: "AIMON",
    description: monsterData.description,
    image: monsterData.imageUrl,
    attributes: monsterData.attributes,
    properties: {
      files: [{ uri: monsterData.imageUrl, type: "image/png" }],
      category: "image",
      creators: [{ address: payer.publicKey.toBase58(), share: 100 }],
    },
  });

  // Mint the NFT
  const { nft } = await metaplex.nfts().create({
    uri: metadataUri,
    name: monsterData.name,
    sellerFeeBasisPoints: 500, // 5% royalty
    symbol: "AIMON",
    creators: [{ address: payer.publicKey, share: 100 }],
    isMutable: true, // Allows for future upgrades
    maxSupply: 1, // Ensures uniqueness
  });

  console.log("Minted AI Monster NFT:", nft.address.toBase58());
  return nft;
}

// Usage
const connection = new web3.Connection(web3.clusterApiUrl("mainnet-beta"));
const payer = web3.Keypair.generate(); // Replace with actual wallet
const monsterData = {
  name: "Chronos the Cybernetic Hydra",
  description: "A time-manipulating, multi-headed monster with advanced AI capabilities.",
  imageUrl: "https://aimonster.io/images/chronos.png",
  attributes: [
    { trait_type: "Rarity", value: "Legendary" },
    { trait_type: "Power Level", value: 95 },
    { trait_type: "Ability", value: "Time Warp" },
  ],
};

mintAIMonsterNFT(connection, payer, monsterData);
```

### **2.2.2 Upgrading and Evolution Mechanisms**

AI Monsters can undergo various forms of upgrades and modifications:

1. **Training System**: Monsters gain experience and level up through battles or completing tasks.
2. **Fusion Mechanism**: Combine two monsters to create a new, potentially more powerful monster.
3. **Genetic Modification**: Alter specific traits or abilities of a monster using in-game resources.

Here's an example of implementing a monster upgrade system:

```javascript
const { Program } = require("@project-serum/anchor");

async function upgradeMonster(program, monsterAccount, upgradeMaterial) {
  await program.rpc.upgradeMonster({
    accounts: {
      monster: monsterAccount,
      upgradeMaterial: upgradeMaterial,
      user: program.provider.wallet.publicKey,
    },
  });

  console.log("Monster upgraded successfully!");
}

async function fuseMonsters(program, monster1Account, monster2Account) {
  const [fusedMonsterAccount] = await web3.PublicKey.findProgramAddress(
    [Buffer.from("fused_monster"), monster1Account.toBuffer(), monster2Account.toBuffer()],
    program.programId
  );

  await program.rpc.fuseMonsters({
    accounts: {
      monster1: monster1Account,
      monster2: monster2Account,
      fusedMonster: fusedMonsterAccount,
      user: program.provider.wallet.publicKey,
    },
  });

  console.log("Monsters fused successfully!");
  return fusedMonsterAccount;
}
```

### **2.2.3 GameFi and Film Production Integration**

AI MONSTER collaborates with GameFi platforms and film production companies to bring AI-generated monsters into real content:

1. **GameFi Integration**:
2. Provide APIs for game developers to incorporate AI Monster generation and evolution.
3. Implement cross-game asset portability using a shared NFT standard.
4. **Film Production Tools**:
5. Develop plugins for popular 3D modeling and animation software to import AI Monsters.
6. Create a real-time monster generation system for live CGI integration.

Example of GameFi integration API:

```javascript
const AIMonsterSDK = require('ai-monster-sdk');

async function integrateAIMonsterInGame(gameId, sceneContext) {
  const sdk = new AIMonsterSDK(process.env.AI_MONSTER_API_KEY);

  // Generate a monster based on game context
  const monster = await sdk.generateMonster({
    gameId: gameId,
    context: sceneContext,
    difficulty: 'hard',
  });

  // Retrieve 3D model and animations
  const monsterAssets = await sdk.getMonsterAssets(monster.id, {
    format: '3d',
    animations: ['idle', 'attack', 'death'],
  });

  // Integrate monster into game scene
  gameEngine.addCharacter(monsterAssets);

  return monster;
}

// Usage in a game
const bossMonster = await integrateAIMonsterInGame('epic-rpg-123', {
  location: 'ancient temple',
  playerLevel: 50,
  timeOfDay: 'night',
});
```

This enhanced NFT integration system allows for a dynamic and interactive ecosystem where AI-generated monsters can evolve, be trained, and gain value over time. The collaboration with GameFi and film production opens up new possibilities for using AI-generated content in various digital media, creating a bridge between AI technology, blockchain, and creative industries.
