Why You Should Always Freeze Your Metadata for NFTs on OpenSea

- This video will explain the Pros and Cons of Freezing your Metadata while minting your NFT collection on OpenSea. This tutorial will also show you how to ensure your metadata is being stored securely on IPFS.
Providing asset metadata allows applications like OpenSea to pull in rich data for digital assets and easily display them in-app. Digital assets on a given smart contract are typically represented solely by a unique identifier (e.g., the token_id in ERC721), so metadata allows these assets to have additional properties, such as a name, description, and image.
The InterPlanetary File System is a protocol and peer-to-peer network for storing and sharing data in a distributed file system. IPFS uses content-addressing to uniquely identify each file in a global namespace connecting all computing devices.

What is an NFT?
A non-fungible token (NFT) is a non-interchangeable unit of data stored on a blockchain, a form of digital ledger, that can be sold and traded. Types of NFT data units may be associated with digital files such as photos, videos, and audio. Because each token is uniquely identifiable, NFTs differ from blockchain cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin.
NFT ledgers claim to provide a public certificate of authenticity or proof of ownership, but the legal rights conveyed by an NFT can be uncertain. NFTs do not restrict the sharing or copying of the underlying digital files, do not necessarily convey the copyright of the digital files, and do not prevent the creation of NFTs with identical associated files.
NFTs have been used as a speculative asset, and they have drawn increasing criticism for the energy cost and carbon footprint associated with validating blockchain transactions as well as their frequent use in art scams and claimed structure of the NFT market to be a Ponzi scheme.

TLDR: Freezing introduces more permanence to your NFT. Without freezing, pretty much all the properties of your NFT can change or go missing.
if I already list work to sell but if i don't frozen metadata.. can people still buy it or they cannot but it?
Short, clear, straight to the point and no useless self-promotion or attempts at humor. You got yourself a new subscriber.
Thanks a lot, for the explenation will do it (frozen) asap :)
Thanks for the clear explanation, this is the best video about the freeze metadata I found! Two questions for you: if I want to edit a description on a NFT after freezing metadata, can I do it? What about other platforms like foundation, do you know if they also store the image in the IPFS as well or not?
Once you freeze the metadata you won't be able to modify it.
Thanks for this amazing video ✨
No problem 😊
Thanks for sharing
Hey! Thank you for the video, it really helped me! One question, if I make a collection with 100s of NFTs, do I have to freeze them one by one?
As far as I know yes - OpenSea is not supporting any sort of bulk actions at this time.
Great informative video
Thanks for the video i hav a question Even my single NFT is not sold what should i do?
Thank you!
Thanks man 👍✌
Very nice video! What about the gas fee for freezing metadata, on Polygon? Is it charged only when you sell it? Again, thank you for the video
For polygon I believe it's free.
Hello man,thank you for the helpful video
2 questions:
1- if i already upload my NFTs on ipfs before uploading them to opensea,should i also freeze the metadata again?
2- does freezing the metadata cost me gas fees ?
Again thank you so much!
Freezing the metadata is free afaik
Awesome thanks
Welcome 😊
What is the cost approx in ETH if we want to freeze the data for a full 10k collection?
How does this not have more views?
Thank you!
I transferred a nft that I created on an address protected by a ldger key before freezing it, how to freeze the metadata of this nft? Plse btw thx for all your content
Thank you for information, I have a question, when I click the edit button, freeze metadata section says ''unauthorized'' and I am not able to freeze, why is this happening?
The problem is fixed, someone on reddit said, edit the collection, it will ask for signature and then nft freeze will be active, I tried it and it worked, those who have the same problem can try this.
Great.
Hello, thank you for your video. I has a question. Someone wanted to buy one of my NFTs in OpenSea, but he didn't succeed. In the shopping cart, he gets an unreviewed message. Do you know what it means? My walet is empty, could it be related to this? Or is it related to the fact that I dont frize?
Hi, nice video. Who is the creator of the NFT that you frozed . can you see that in etherscan? Is it the creator or opensea?
I am the creator.
Means I have to freze matedata. Can without freezing I can't able to sell my nft.
Hi. Why token ID is long and why is just one number sometimes? How to claim number?
3:32 lmao what a trip.. I had no idea.. so we’ve decided this is okay so we can edit info huh.. makes sense. So we want to Freeze it before it’s sold right? Or only buy frozen meta data items?
Can you freeze the meta-data on an NFT you’ve already sent to someone? And if so how?
Okay.. do u recommend this on NFTs that are like 10k collections?
If it's free yes, but otherwise might become cost prohibitive.
there is no option of any freezing showing there under my collection,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,which smart contract do you use ,can you please share it.,i have used custom contract but freezing and unlockable content are absent in my collection,can you please suggest some solution,thanks.
hello i like the video and i want to how to deploy with metada of opensea please reply
success
I haven't claimed my Token ID yet, and now my NFT has already frozen, so the question is how can I get or claim my Token ID? because every time I click on the Token ID on opensea, it leads me to somewhere else. Hope to get a response from you soon.
I'm actually not sure on this.
So when you do lazy minting through opensea, you're just uploading an image which it turns into an NFT? And does that mean they generate your metadata?
Nothing gets on the chain when it has only been lazy minted. It's still marketed on OpenSea
@@DataSlayerMedia So it only works for 1/1s? Like you can't build a collection?
Hello, I have a question. How can I freeze an NFT without the metamask ask me for a charge???
cool
I think this guy didn't slept before recording this video. XD man it sounds better at 2x speed
Metadata for IPFS, IMG for Filecoin was Opensea's plan. But until no information for IMG freezing.
oh, seeing this video, IMG is also stored in IPFS?! that's amazing tech. So, Opensea use Filecoin or Arweave?
OpenSea uses IPFS

Brother How bulk upload automatically Open sea nfts without captcha please real network without gas fee
Can I sell nfts after freezing?
Good question, can we?
Is it supposed to charge me to Freeze PER NFT?? Or did someone just steal my ETH??
Yes it may charge you for that.
🙏🏼✨🙏🏾❤️
HEY MAN, PLEASE HELP. How to delete a frozen NFT in opensea? UGGH!! The description of my nft is wrong.
impossible.
You can burn it but not delete it.
The only problem with freezing your metadata is, you won't be able to burn them once you realize they are CRAP!🤣 I know this from Experience. now the ones I don't want cannot be hidden on my collection or moved back to my main account. It also has the owner listed as "Burn Address".... people aren't going to like seeing that, AND they appear on my rarible account too.
Is there a way someone could sell a bunch of gold bar nfts and then after everyone buys them for $1000 change the images to a bowl of socks?
Had no idea. It’s a conspiracy to change all our photos to Rick Astley MAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH MWAHAHAHHAHAHA 😈 .. and why does Metamask need to read and write all data from all sites and change clipboard info?
