Dynamic Hashinals are the advent of mutable on-chain NFTs (Hashinals) in the Hedera ecosystem. They allow you to tweak their metadata anytime, manually, or by creating rules that allow automatic change based on certain conditions.

This innovation is reshaping the NFT landscape with unprecedented flexibility and a wide range of use cases, from gaming to advertising and beyond.

In this article, you'll learn how to inscribe a Dynamic Hashinal, single or multiple files.

Before we proceed, do you remember our article on “How to Inscribe Hashinals”? It will help you understand the tools available to inscribe a Hashinal successfully.

What are Dynamic Hashinals

Dynamic Hashinal lets you make your NFTs mutable on-chain by altering their metadata using the KiloScribe HCS-6 tool on Hedera. Unlike Dynamic NFTs, which replace previous versions of their metadata, you can see the history of prior versions of your Dynamic Hashinals.

With no further ado, let us create a Dynamic Hashinal.

How To Create a Dynamic Hashinal

We will explore how to inscribe single and multiple files Dynamic Hashinals, each with just a slightly unique inscription process. Below is a step-by-step guide to inscribing both types:

Step 1: Visit the KiloScribe inscription tool using this link

a. Single-File Dynamic Hashinals

2. File Upload and Hashinal Inscription

• Under “Select Hashinal type:” select “Dynamic Hashinal (HCS-6)” **** Selecting Dynamic Hashinal automatically displays the Time To Live (TTL) property under it; you can click the dropdown arrow to choose the time interval you want. The TTL property specifies the minimum update interval for your NFT or the time required to change to its updated metadata.

• Please select your preferred primary file format and import it. Provide the necessary information for the NFT and click “SAVE JSON.” Then click “BEGIN HASHINAL INSCRIPTION PROCESS.”

• Approve the transaction in your wallet. This concludes your single-file dynamic Hashinal initial version inscription process.

Note: HBAR will be deducted from your wallet to cover the fees.
