Under the pNFT standard, project owners are able to decide how their NFTs are used via allow/deny lists.

For collections looking to enforce royalties, they can restrict holders from listing on zero-royalty marketplaces.

Meaning, OTC & wallet-to-wallet transfers are not restricted by default.

Instead, project owners must specifically create each rule. Making active management of allow/deny lists very important.

What does this mean? Project owners have a choice to adopt new pNFT rules or not.

If they do: Less ownership rights for holders & lower collection volumes due to restrictions imposed.

If they don't: Business as usual w/ risk of running outdated standard.

Outside of royalty enforcement, Metaplex took community considerations into account that allows for other rule sets.

With pNFT framework, creators can lock/unlock tokens under certain conditions (location, usage, etc.) and impose other creative rules.

Creative rules open a new world of possibilities for pNFTs.

Lock a pNFT after it's used to claim merch?✅ Limit holders by jurisdiction law?✅ Bind pNFTs in-game?✅

Ex: Metaplex will maintain a rule set to allow/deny marketplaces & protocols enforcing royalties - updated on a weekly basis.

If projects choose to follow Metaplex's standard royalty enforcement rules, holders' ability to list their pNFTs on a certain platform will be controlled by a third-party.

pNFTs will only be compatible with protocols, marketplaces, and wallets that choose to adopt the upgrade.

If a user wants to list/unlist a pNFT on a marketplace that hasn't upgraded, it will not work. The same applies with wallet transfers.

I am not a developer. The purpose of this thread is to breakdown pNFTs at a basic level so most can understand the coming changes.

If there are any technical gurus that would like to expand or provide further detail, we encourage you to do so😁🙏
