» The wait for NFTs to load is over!

As of the 23rd of September 2023, nftcdn.io's alpha release is live on pool.pm! Here's a look at how we compare to traditional methods available to people who want to display Cardano NFTs on their website/DApp!

NFTs Display Performance BenchmarkNB. Speed tests conducted using a 300Mb/s ADSL fibre optic line. The average household broadband speed is 80Mb/s in the UK, 50Mb/s in Germany & Australia, 100Mb/s in the USA and 18Mb/s in Brazil.

» So what does this mean for me?

As an end-user (i.e. people who like to look at NFTs), this means:

  • Lower Bandwidth Consumption – Our "Image Optimisation" capability can re-scale and consequently reduce file sizes by 80 - 95%, lowering total bandwidth requirements from gigabytes to megabytes – a much welcomed feature for mobile users on expensive data plans!
  • Faster NFT Image Loading – Smaller NFT image file sizes also mean loading of webpages/wallets with thousands of these assets are now completed in seconds rather than minutes!
  • No Rate Limit Errors – Our very high rate-limit thresholds ensure loading of wallets with thousands of NFTs are smooth & uninterrupted!

As a developer looking to display NFTs on your websites/DApps, this means:

  • Light-Weight Infrastructure – Our NFT Content Delivery As a Service offering eliminates the need for setting up your own Cardano nodes, databases, IPFS nodes & clusters and multi-platform integrations to display NFTs!
  • Low Cost – No up-front design, development and deployment expenses or on-going maintenance & operational overhead to display NFTs!
  • Every Cardano NFT image source: Compatible with any NFT image source (IPFS, Arweave, HTTP, On-Chain).
  • Every Cardano NFT image type: Compatible with any standard image type, including SVGs & GIFs.
  • One-line integration: Simply use your personal nftcdn.io gateway in your website/Dapp as follows: <img src="https://NFTfingerprint.yourgateway.nftcdn.io/image?size=128">
  • Built-in Security: HMAC authentication, CORS & hotlinking protection against bandwidth bandits!
