Build a Token-Gated NFT Minting dApp with Thirdweb and RootstockCollective
In this guide, we’ll build a token-gated platform using Thirdweb and RootstockCollective, this dApp will enable members of the platform to mint unique collectibles based on the amount of stRIF tokens they hold. We will learn how to integrate Web3 wallets authentication, use Thirdweb to mint NFT drops, verify token balances, and enable NFT minting.
This guide will also demonstrate how token ownership can be used to control access. We’ll use stRIF, the governance token of the RootstockCollective, to determine which NFTs users can mint. Holding stRIF will enable members to mint unique collectibles based on the amount of stRIF tokens they hold, they will be granted access to mint two ERC-721 collections: Rooties (Level 1) and Legends (Level 2). This ensures that only engaged community members can participate, creating an exclusive and verifiable experience.
