NFTokenOffer

Tokens that have the lsfTransferable flag set can be transferred among participants using offers. The NFTokenOffer object represents an offer to buy, sell or transfer an NFToken object. The owner of a NFToken can use NFTokenCreateOffer to start a transaction.

NFTokenOffer Fields

Name JSON Type Internal Type Required? Description
Amount Currency Amount AMOUNT Yes Amount expected or offered for the NFToken. If the token has the lsfOnlyXRP flag set, the amount must be specified in XRP. Sell offers that specify assets other than XRP must specify a non-zero amount. Sell offers that specify XRP can be 'free' (that is, the Amount field can be equal to "0").
Destination string AccountID No The AccountID for which this offer is intended. If present, only that account can accept the offer.
Expiration number UInt32 No The time after which the offer is no longer active. The value is the number of seconds since the Ripple Epoch.
Flags number UInt32 Yes A set of flags associated with this object, used to specify various options or settings. Flags are listed in the table below.
LedgerEntryType string UInt16 Yes The value 0x0074, mapped to the string NFTokenOffer, indicates that this is an offer to trade a NFToken.
NFTokenID string Hash256 Yes The NFTokenID of the NFToken object referenced by this offer.
NFTokenOfferNode string UInt64 No Internal bookkeeping, indicating the page inside the token buy or sell offer directory, as appropriate, where this token is being tracked. This field allows the efficient deletion of offers.
Owner string AccountID Yes Owner of the account that is creating and owns the offer. Only the current Owner of an NFToken can create an offer to sell an NFToken, but any account can create an offer to buy an NFToken.
OwnerNode string UInt64 No Internal bookkeeping, indicating the page inside the owner directory where this token is being tracked. This field allows the efficient deletion of offers.
PreviousTxnID string Hash256 Yes Identifying hash of the transaction that most recently modified this object.
PreviousTxnLgrSeq number UInt32 Yes Index of the ledger that contains the transaction that most recently modified this object.

NFTokenOffer Transactions

Unlike Offers for fungible tokens, a NFTokenOffer is not stored in an order book and is never automatically matched or executed. A buyer must explicitly choose to accept an NFTokenOffer that offers to buy a NFToken. Similarly, a seller must explicitly choose to accept a specific NFTokenOffer that offers to buy a NFToken object that they own.

The transactions for NFToken trading are:

Locating NFTokenOffer objects

Each NFToken has two directories: one contains offers to buy the token and the other contains offers to sell the token. Marketplaces or other client applications can use these directories to find and display offers to trade NFToken objects to users or even automatically match them and accept them.

NFTokenOffer Reserve

Each NFTokenOffer object costs the account placing the offer one incremental reserve. As of this writing the incremental reserve is 2 XRP. The reserve can be recovered by cancelling the offer.

NFTokenOffer ID Format

The unique ID (NFTokenOfferID) of a NFTokenOffer object is the result of the following values concatenated in order:

  • The NFTokenOffer space key, 0x0074;
  • The AccountID of the account placing the offer; and
  • The Sequence (or Ticket) of the NFTokenCreateOffer transaction that created the NFTokenOffer.
