As a programable blockchain, Aleo supports Non-Fongible Tokens: exchangeable assets (tokens) that are unique, include data and cannot be copied. Because Aleo is a privacy oriented network, they have some special unique ZK features.
How are zk-NFTs different?
Privacy features
As any other Aleo asset, zk-NFTs owner is either public, meaning visible to anyone on the network, or private, only visible to those having access to your account's view key. On the other hand data included in the NFT can remain private.
Proof of ownership
zk-NFT include a proof of ownership feature. This means you can prove you own a NFT from a collection without revealing which one or any data included in the NFT. This proof can be shared either onchain or even offchain.
Programable
NFT programs on Aleo must just implement a specific standard, but their creator can add any features they need as: random candy machines, whitelist mints, advanced zero knowledge proofs. That way, NFTs on Aleo are adaptable to most usecases.
