NFT Marketplace

Overview

NFT Marketplace is a decentralized NFT exchange that allows users to buy any ERC-721 compatible NFTs with coins and tokens.

These are the goals we had in mind when designing the protocol:

  • Make it as accessible as possible to sellers by not requiring them to perform blockchain transactions when listing their NFTs for sale, hence saving on gas fees.

  • Pay royalties by implementing the ERC-2981 standard as well as our own solution detailed in the IERC721Autentica interface.

  • Temporarily suspend the smart contract in the event of an emergency.

How it Works

The smart contract's main public functions are canPerformTrade, tradeForCoins and tradeForTokens. All of these functions are meant to be called by the Buyer via Autentica Marketplace. The first function called canPerformTrade is used to check if the user is allowed to perform a trade using the specified parameters, while the remaining two functions, tradeForCoins and tradeForTokens are used to perform an actual trade using coins (the native cryptocurrency of the platform, i.e.: ETH) or tokens (i.e.: AUT/USDT/USDC).

Behind the scenes, tradeForCoins and tradeForTokens functions are actually calling canPerformTrade and determine whether or not the user is allowed to perform a trade with the specified parameters, but the reason for why canPerformTrade is exposed publicly is to allow the user to check if the trade is possible without actually performing it. This avoids having to pay gas fees if the transaction fails due to unmet conditions.

Functions

canPerformTrade is executed to check if the user is allowed to perform a trade using the specified parameters.

/**
 * @notice Validate the trade.
 *
 * @param collection The ERC-721 smart contract.
 * @param tokenId The unique identifier of the ERC-721 token within the `collection` smart contract.
 * @param price The price of the NFT in `token` tokens.
 * @param currency The type of currency (ERC-20 or native currency)
 * @param buyer Buyer address.
 * @param marketplaceFee Marketplace fee.
 * @param signature ECDSA signature.
 *
 */
 function canPerformTrade(
    address collection,
    uint256 tokenId,
    uint256 price,
    address currency,
    address buyer,
    uint256 marketplaceFee,
    Signature calldata signature
 ) public view returns (bool)

This function validates the following conditions:

  • The smart contract is not paused;

  • The collection smart contract is a valid ERC-721 smart contract;

  • The owner approved this smart contract to transfer the NFT identified by tokenId on their behalf;

  • The royalty fee for the creator and marketplaceFee do not exceed 100%;

  • The ECDSA signature that encodes all these parameters and a few others has been signed by an authorized user.

tradeForCoins is used to perform a trade using coins (the native cryptocurrency of the platform, i.e.: ETH).

/**
 * @notice Trades an NFT for a given amount of coins (the native cryptocurrency of the platform, i.e.: ETH).
 *
 * @param collection The ERC-721 smart contract.
 * @param tokenId The unique identifier of the ERC-721 token within the `collection` smart contract.
 * @param price The price of the NFT in coins.
 * @param buyer Buyer address.
 * @param marketplaceFee Marketplace fee.
 * @param signature ECDSA signature.
 *
 * @dev Requirements
 *
 * - The `collection` smart contract must be an ERC-721 smart contract.
 * - The owner of the NFT identified by `tokenId` within the `collection` smart contract must have approved
 *   this smart contract to manage its NFTs.
 * - The `price` and `msg.value` must be equal.
 * - The sum of all the fees cannot be greater than 100%.
 * - The ECDSA signature must be signed by someone with the admin or operator role.

    address collection,
    uint256 tokenId,
    uint256 price,
    address buyer,
    uint256 marketplaceFee,
    Signature calldata signature
 ) external payable nonReentrant

This function performs the following actions:

  • Guards against reentrancy;

  • Executes canPerformTrade to validate the parameters;

  • Sends the proceeds to each party involved if the amount is greater than zero:

    • Owner: The owner of the NFT;

    • Investor:

      • The investor who minted the NFT on behalf of the creator.

      • Note: The investor is payed from the proceeds of the creator.

    • Creator: The creator of the NFT if the royalty fee is greater than 0% and the creator is no longer the owner.

    • Marketplace: The Autentica Marketplace.

  • Transfers the NFT to the buyer.

  • Emits the TradedForCoins event.

tradeForTokens is used to perform a trade using tokens (i.e. : AUT/USDT/USDC).

/**
 * @notice Trades an NFT for a given amount of ERC-20 tokens (i.e.: AUT/USDT/USDC).
 *
 * @param collection The ERC-721 smart contract.
 * @param tokenId The unique identifier of the ERC-721 token within the `collection` smart contract.
 * @param price The price of the NFT in `token` tokens.
 * @param token The ERC-20 smart contract.
 * @param buyer Buyer address.
 * @param marketplaceFee Marketplace fee.
 * @param signature ECDSA signature.
 *
 * Requirements:
 *
 * - The `collection` smart contract must be an ERC-721 smart contract.
 * - The owner of the NFT identified by `tokenId` within the `collection` smart contract must have approved
 *   this smart contract to manage its NFTs.
 * - The sum of all the fees cannot be greater than 100%.
 * - The ECDSA signature must be signed by someone with the admin or operator role.

This function performs the following actions:

  • Validates that the ERC-20 token address is allowed to be used for trading;

  • Executes canPerformTrade to validate the parameters;

  • Sends the proceeds to each party involved if the amount is greater than zero:

Events
