Step 3: Mint NFT

Your new NFT now has a Token ID, so now it is time to Mint your NFT. Essentially, this means that we are going to create the actual NFT serial numbers that you are able to sell.

You should now see a screen that looks like this:

Your new token id will be shown in the first box.

The next boxes describe your max supply, amount already minted, and what is available yet to mint.

To mint your new NFT serial numbers, determine the number that you want to mint, and click the "Mint Button."

You are charged minting fees by Hedera, so please make sure you checkout the fee structure before minting (they are minimal).

You can only mint 10 at a time

Let's say you have a max supply of 100, and you now want to mint all 100. DPub currently only lets you mint 10 at a time.

Why? In Hedera, we can combine up to 10 mints together in a single transaction to Hedera. In Hashpack, currently, you have to approve each transaction. We are working with the Hashpack team to combine multiple transactions together, however, at this time to mint 100 serial numbers, you will have to click the "Mint" button 10 times. It is a relatively quick process, but we will update when we have worked out a solution with Hashpack.

Approve in Hashpack

Like everything else, you have to now approve the minting in Hashpack

The screens are not yet perfect in Hashpack. For example, the amount may be zero as seen below, even though you are minting 10. Both teams are working together to clean up the experience for you.

Why is Total Minted showing the wrong number?

It takes a few seconds for Hedera and DPub to sync up. After approving the mint in Hashpack, wait a few seconds, and then click the "click to refresh" next to Total Minted.

Click to refresh is doing a lot of work, so please just be patient with it. Wait a few seconds, then use the refresh then wait for a few seconds for it to update.

Your NFT will now show up in your Hashpack wallet. Sometimes it takes a bit of time to show the image.
