NFT VALUE GROWTH MECHANISM

NFT Value Appreciation Mechanism

Life4Cuts operates a business model that combines offline Frame NFT sales with an on-chain NFT ecosystem, in collaboration with Dispatch, entertainment agencies, and global fandom communities. Below is the concrete operational framework designed to drive sustained NFT value appreciation.

  1. Photocard Print Revenue Photocard prints are priced at USD 4–6 per sheet (varying by country). Revenue is distributed across infrastructure operators, content creators, IP holders, and the NFT platform, ensuring fair allocation based on each participant’s contribution.

  2. NFT Minting & Primary Sales Limited-edition NFTs—either 1:1 matched with original photos or issued in strictly limited quantities—are sold through initial auction-based primary sales. Proceeds are distributed according to pre-agreed allocation ratios among participants.

  3. Secondary Market Royalties When NFTs are resold on the secondary market, a 5–10% royalty is applied, establishing a sustainable, long-term revenue foundation for the ecosystem.

  4. Global Expansion Through royalty agreements with overseas operators, Life4Cuts expands its global photo booth network. As country-level revenues grow, NFT-related revenues increase in parallel, reinforcing ecosystem-wide value growth.

In addition, NFT sales volume is recorded directly in on-chain metadata and reflected in a tiered grading system (E–SS ranks). This functions similarly to fandom voting: popular NFTs gain exposure on leaderboards, driving competition between fandoms. As rankings rise, additional demand and trading activity are generated, directly reinforcing NFT value. NFT holders are also eligible for real-world rewards—such as signed cards, priority concert ticket access, and limited-edition merchandise—further enhancing the social and economic value of NFTs.

Photocard NFT Lifecycle

Photocard NFTs are designed to organically connect offline content consumption with an on-chain ecosystem. The full lifecycle is as follows:

  • Dispatch: Provides exclusive high-resolution photo assets

  • Entertainment Agencies: Establish official IP and licensing agreements

  • Life4Cuts HQ: Produces digital masters and mints NFTs

  • Global Photo Booths: Fans print photocards on-site

  • Fans: Purchase and consume NFTs

  • Smart Contracts: Record sales data on-chain

  • NFTs: Store metadata such as sales volume and ranking

  • Marketplace: Enables secondary trading and long-term royalty generation

  • Ranking System: Drives fandom competition among NFTs

Through this lifecycle, a single photo evolves beyond simple image content into the core engine of a fandom economy—offline consumption → on-chain assetization → value appreciation → rewards. Built on this structure, the Life4Cuts project presents a sustainable Web3-based entertainment model where participation, ownership, and value creation are continuously reinforced.
