Batch Update Operations

Purpose: Batch operations streamline repetitive tasks, such as updating hundreds of NFTs’ metadata or transferring large volumes of tokens at once. This approach:

  • Reduces transaction overhead.

  • Minimizes gas costs and improves user experience.

  • Ensures atomicity—either all updates succeed, or none do, maintaining data consistency.

Examples:

  • Batch Minting (ART20): Minting large sets of NFTs in a single transaction.

  • Batch Metadata Update: Quickly change the logo URI, description, or other attributes of multiple NFTs.

  • Batch Transfer or Burn: Efficiently redistribute or burn large quantities of NFTs without multiple transactions.

Best Practices:

  • Use batch operations for large-scale collections or events (e.g., seasonal updates).

  • Combine batch metadata updates with value sources for dynamic, time-sensitive changes.

  • Test these operations extensively before running them on live collections.
