Buying your DVM from Opensea

All Decentralized Virtual Machines (DVM)'s are controlled through an "access token" that is actually an ERC-721 token on Ethereum. Read more about what a DVM is here!

For those not lucky enough to receive a DVM from one of Openmesh's early adopter giveaways, you can buy them on the open market via Ethereum NFT marketplaces like Opensea.

Navigate and Search for Xnode on Opensea

The quickest way to see which Xnode DVM's are activated or not yet activated (Entitlement) is to simply visit https://opensea.io and search for "xnode". From here two results should pop-up straight away:

• Xnode Unit Entitlement - these are Xnode DVM ERC-721 NFT's that have not been activated yet on Xnode Studio.

• Xnode Unit - these Xnode DVM ERC-721 NFT's have been redeemed on Xnode Studio, following this redemption process of entering in the 9 digit code on the back of the card.

Xnode Unit NFT Collection

By visiting the Xnode Unit NFT collection on Opensea you can see the total amount of Xnode DVM cards claimed by an Ethereum wallet via Xnode Studio that also had a bare metal server associated.

By clicking on these NFT's within Opensea's website, you can see further details about which Ethereum wallet claimed ownership of the asset, which contract address the NFT belongs to, the Token ID, the Token Standard (ERC-721) , what date it was claimed or last updated, and the fact it was activated with a bare metal server associated running application workloads.

How do I see if any Xnode DVM's are listed for sale and available?

Of course, the Ethereum wallet owner of the Xnode DVM, needs to list the NFT on the marketplace, before a person can buy it. After viewing the respective Openmesh Xnode NFT collection, you need to select the 'Listed' filter status to see what has been listed for sale. All Xnode DVM NFT's typically have a 12-month usage with the associated bare metal provider, after the date it is activated. By default, 'All' is selected as the filter, which shows all listed and unlisted NFT's in this collection.
