About Hint of Mint

Welcome to Hint of Mint, your premium curated NFT boutique

Our aim is to connect hand-picked artists with existing and new audiences, providing a smooth and seamless experience. Hint of Mint combines a future-proof technical backbone that allows for eco-friendly, sustainable operation, with a savvy team of curators and web3 gurus to create a superior NFT solution unlike any other.

How it Works

Hint of Mint is an EVM compatible multi-chain NFT launchpad that has been deployed to Ethereum and Polygon to enable a broad product offering. Hint of Mint makes NFTs eco-friendly Proof of Stake consensus, which launched on Ethereum on September 15th 2022, cut the energy consumption by 99.95 %, bringing the energy consumption of the transaction close to zero. While Hint of Mint initially launched on Polygon we did expand to Ethereum shortly after the merge event.

No Gas Fees for Artists and Collectors

Proof of Stake minimizes the ecological footprint of NFT creation, making the process sustainable and eco-friendly. Additionally, gas fees on Polygon are directly tied to energy consumption, which also allows Hint of Mint to cover all gas fees – neither buyer nor seller gets stuck with the costs for interacting with the NFT smart contracts on Polygon.

Interesting for artists and brands

Why NFTs?

Until now, creators had no way to claim ownership of their digital artwork. NFTs change this. Like a digital signature, an NFT proves the provenance of a file, making it unique and collectible. NFTs bring new value to your customers.
