Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual mechanical authentication processes with automated cryptographic verification mechanisms. SMS-based cryptographic operations substitute for manual verification, using digital signatures and blockchain validation to automatically authenticate transactions while reducing authentication effort.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Reliability

If direct relationships are required for NFT transactions, then trust can be established, but accessibility and decentralization decrease

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovetrustVSAvoidaccessibility
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a decentralized intermediary system using blockchain and cryptographic protocols that enables trust between entities without direct relationships. The blockchain acts as a neutral mediator that verifies transactions and establishes trust through transparent, immutable records, allowing any user to access the system without requiring pre-established relationships.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system provides universal accessibility to NFT transactions for any user with a smartphone, regardless of their relationships or background. The SMS-based interface and blockchain infrastructure enable multi-functional operations including minting, transferring, and verifying NFTs for any participant in the decentralized network.

Inventive Principle:

3Ease of operation

If centralized control is used for NFT management, then ease of operation improves, but transparency and decentralization are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidtransparency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables users to independently perform all NFT operations through intuitive SMS-based interfaces without requiring centralized control. Users can mint, transfer, and manage their own NFTs autonomously through cryptographic operations, maintaining ease of operation while achieving full transparency through the decentralized blockchain ledger.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces centralized mechanical control systems with decentralized cryptographic mechanisms. SMS-based cryptographic operations substitute for centralized authorization, allowing users to independently manage their NFTs while the blockchain provides transparent, immutable recording of all transactions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

4Reliability

If complex authentication processes are implemented, then security improves, but productivity and efficiency decrease

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesecurityVSAvoidtransaction efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent substitutes complex manual authentication processes with automated cryptographic verification mechanisms. SMS-based cryptographic operations and blockchain validation automatically verify transactions in seconds, maintaining high security while dramatically improving transaction efficiency and productivity.
