Minting NFTs on the Pioneer Creation Platform

3. Fill in metadata fields: title, description, collection name, royalty percentage (up to 10%), and optional attributes.

4. Confirm submission—no gas fee or platform charge is applied at this stage.

5. Wait for automated content review; approval typically occurs within 2–6 hours, after which the NFT appears publicly searchable.

Trading on the Auction Trading Platform

1. Browse categories such as Art, Music, Domain Names, Virtual Worlds, Trading Cards, Collectibles, and Sports using the left-side filter panel.

2. Select an item to view full details including ownership history, current bids, floor price, and listing type (fixed-price or auction).

4. For auctions, place a bid by entering amount and confirming transaction; real-time bid updates appear without delay.

5. Winning bidders receive NFTs instantly in their Gate.io NFT wallet; sellers receive proceeds minus a 2% platform commission allocated to the Gate.io NFT Art Fund.

Managing Cross-Platform NFT Assets

1. Users may import NFTs from external blockchains including Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, and GateChain using the Import NFT function under Wallet → NFT Assets.

2. Each imported NFT undergoes on-chain validation before appearing in the user’s portfolio.

3. Imported assets become eligible for listing on the Auction Trading Platform immediately after confirmation.

4. Ownership transfers occur off-chain initially but are fully backed by verifiable on-chain records upon request.

5. No withdrawal restrictions apply—users retain full control and may export NFTs to compatible external wallets at any time.
