ABSTRACT

As digital assets continue to become more complex, effective ownership management and fractional ownership have become important challenges. This paper proposes a dynamic approach to manage hierarchical NFTs through efficient splitting and merging mechanisms. The proposed model builds a parent-child relationship framework based on the ERC-6150 standard. Children inherit the roles of their parents and further split to create new children and share ownership within the same hierarchy. Conversely, through merging, users can consolidate multiple child NFTs into a single parent NFT to simplify ownership and maximize asset value. The proposed hierarchical model improves existing hierarchical NFT models to manage the tasks of splitting and merging NFTs while maintaining the parent-child relationship, providing a scalable solution for managing complex digital assets and contributing to the widespread use of blockchain technology.
