How do I mint or buy a Mapstone NFT?
Once you have a Mapstone account and a connected wallet, you’re ready to mint or buy NFTs.
Minting a new Mapstone NFT (primary sale)
You can mint new NFTs in two ways:
- Mint Now collections: Visit the Mint Now page to browse featured Address, Charity, and Neighborhood NFTs that are available to mint immediately.
- Custom Address claim: Search and claim a real-world address using our custom claim form. After your claim is approved, your Address NFT will appear in your Account Dashboard under “Ready for Mint,” where you can complete the mint.
To mint, click the “Mint Now” button on the NFT card. Your connected wallet will display a transaction window with the NFT price and gas fee. Review and confirm the transaction to complete the mint. Once confirmed on-chain, the NFT is permanently recorded on Ethereum and owned by your wallet.
Buying an already-minted NFT (secondary market)
To buy NFTs that have already been minted, visit the Mapstone Marketplace. Here you can browse listings, filter by NFT type, and view detailed information about each item, including price and attributes.
If the NFT is listed for sale, click “Buy Now” to open a confirmation window in your wallet. After you review and confirm the transaction (including gas fees), the NFT will transfer to your wallet once the transaction is confirmed on Ethereum.
Whether you mint or buy on the Marketplace, all NFTs you own will be visible in your Account Dashboard.
