# Dynamic NFTs

### **What are Dynamic NFTs?**

Dynamic NFTs expand the concept of traditional non-fungible tokens by incorporating features that allow them to evolve over time. Unlike conventional NFTs that encapsulate a static digital asset, dynamic NFTs can modify based on various conditions or interactions.

### **The Inception and Motivation Behind Dynamic NFTs**

The demand for more substantial interactivity and engagement within the blockchain space spurred the development of dynamic NFTs. They carry various mutable attributes, such as appearance and properties, influenced by factors like market trends, user preferences, or even real-world scenarios. For instance, a dynamic NFT of a digital piece of art could alter its look based on different times of the day or weather conditions.

### **Role of KodaDot in Dynamic NFTs**

KodaDot brings a new dimension to user engagement with truly on-chain, decentralized applications. Leveraging KodaDot’s distinctive features such as delayed messages and gas reservation, dynamic NFTs can self-modify after specific durations. The gas reservation feature creates gas pools that programs can use for further executions. This innovative mechanism enables contracts to awaken themselves, facilitating dynamic behaviors.

### **Conclusion**

Dynamic NFTs on KodaDot present an exciting innovation in the realm of non-fungible tokens, providing more significant interactivity and involvement in decentralized applications. With the smart contract of KodaDot's NFT available on GitHub, developers are encouraged to dive deeper into this shift in the blockchain ecosystem.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://hello.kodadot.xyz/nft-standard/smart-contracts/dynamic-nfts.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
