I try to get who perform the mint operation on a NFT. My understanding is that a transaction having a from_address which is the genesis address - 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 and the to_address is the address of the wallet who minted the NFT.

Though I found that some NFT like this one: https://opensea.io/assets/0xc4c377565a4b9eb6e657c2422bd33b6e4859b041/1 doesn't have any mint operation or having any transaction having the from_address is the genesis address. I've checked all the transactions downloaded from Etherscan from here: https://etherscan.io/exportData?type=address&a=0xc4c377565a4b9eb6e657c2422bd33b6e4859b041.

So maybe I get incorrect understanding on how the minting process works. Any specification on how minting process work is highly appreciated.

Trace the transaction to the first time this NFT has been transfered and then follow the transaction back the tx that it is minted. Here is the tx - https://etherscan.io/tx/0xa9d74c293a2ef61a1dda4175a6884fe85955335d8c4731ffe0d03d4e6856a593

  • Thank you. This is same method I'm thinking of too. Following the mentioned method, is it correct to state that there is only one minter per NFT contract - regardless of how many supply per NFT? Commented Mar 22, 2022 at 9:15
  • I've just found that the example NFT have been minted multiple times. So there are not only one minter per NFT. Commented Mar 22, 2022 at 9:42
  • The example NFT is ERC1155 unlike regular NFT which is ERC721. Essentially, ERC1155 allow multiple owner to 1 NFT Commented Mar 22, 2022 at 13:52
