I recently started exploring BCH’s CashTokens, and I’m curious if anyone has built any interactive DApps with them yet. For instance, could you use a Mutable NFT to create a virtual tree that ‘grows’ when a user waters it daily? I’m wondering if this level of state-changing logic can be fully handled by BCH smart contracts.
Building on that, I also brainstormed a territory-control GameFi concept: What if we create 100 different cities, represented by 100 unique NFTs? The core mechanic would be driven by a smart contract. The initial mint price could be 0.01 BCH. After a player buys a city, they can set a new listing price (e.g., 0.02 BCH). When the next buyer purchases it from them, the contract automatically enforces a 10% royalty fee that goes to the developer.
Is it technically feasible to build this model and host the entire frontend and metadata purely on IPFS?"
Yes, this was literally built in the recent BLAZE hackathon in November. It won 3rd place. https://dorahacks.io/buidl/36811
It’s technically feasible to build basically anything with CashTokens. It’s a scaleable low fee system that combines with the BCH VM to be Turing complete so pretty much anything you can imagine is possible.
Hosting things on IPFS is probably also viable, I don’t know the details of that though.
CashTokens and the BCH ecosystem is still quite young (albeit developing fast), so there’s not loads of documentation or always tooling to make things as easy as it will be in the future, but if you have any ideas of course just try build them and see how it goes (AIs can help a lot these days).
Maybe it could be easier to make DApp after this May Upgrade, their are new Op_codes
There are already many dapps on BCH long before the May upgrade. I suggest reading more about the ecosystem. There is plenty of information here FAQs | The Bitcoin Cash Podcast
