A brief introduction to the first 10 NFT dApps confirmed to be made by Vulcan this year.

6 min readJun 2, 2020

Last week we ran a poll of four nominees from 27 applications for an NFT dApp be fully developed free of charge by Vulcan. After 427 votes, we can reveal that the winner is:

…. drumroll……

All of them!

That’s right, what kind of dApp enabler would we be if we turned away applications.? OK, to be fair, GeoCats came first with 42% of the votes, but all four nominees will have their dApp ideas fully developed and supported by Vulcan this year. We will be in touch will all nominees in order to push forward.

All four dApp ideas will be fully developed and supported by Vulcan.

Of course, that doesn’t mean that the other entries are void, and when our documentation and engine is public, anyone will be able to create their NFT assets and application with a simple few clicks.

The Confirmed NFT dApps of 2020

So, we thought now is a good time to give a quick summary of the first 10 guaranteed NFT dApps that have been or are being built this year. We hope that this list triples as more and more people realise how easy it is to build with us and on VeChain Thor.

1. VeriArti by Vulcan Forged

What is it? VeriArti (and now the team behind Vulcan) specializes in digital art NFTs. It was the first successful NFT web dApp built on VeChain with over 300 active members and hundreds of minted tokens. It verifies ownership of digital art and allows it to be collected or traded in its marketplace.

Where is it? The website is currently undergoing a drastic facelift but the old website is still functional here.

2. Block Babies by Bamboo Labs

What is it? Block Babies stormed onto the NFT scene this year selling out their first 500 cards and maxed out on user capacity. The card-collectible game allows users to pitch their babies against one another with a range of items and teammates including Ninja babies, stink bombs and milk bottle nunchucks. The baby’s life journey, quests and battles, are all documented on the blockchain.

3. Way of the Tiger by Fabled Lands Ltd

10. VThorium by BigGuap69

What is it? This idea was actually born out of a few people chatting in the Veriarti Telegram. The idea is simple, a rocketship must make its way to the moon. It can only be powered by anonymous users throwing VTHO at it. The VTHO is then burned and the rocketship progresses. Those who are lucky and power it through a space-prize, will receive the NFT behind it. And the person that gets it to the moon? Well, more than just a prize at stake.

Where is it? VThorium will be enabled by Vulcan and updates will be coming soon.
