The open metaverse needs more builders. Not just developers, but artists, creators, and communities ready to bring their ideas to life. That is exactly what Lum3n makes possible, by removing the friction and technical complexity from launching NFT, SFT, and POAP collections.

Built by a long-time member of the community, Lum3n is a no-code, self-service platform purpose-built for The Root Network (TRN). It is now live on both testnet and mainnet, ready to empower anyone to launch a collection in just a few clicks.

The Idea Behind Lum3n

Rather than building one-off pages for each project, Lum3n was designed as a platform that could evolve with the ecosystem and take advantage of The Root Network’s unique architecture.

“I often heard from people who wanted to launch a collection on TRN but weren’t sure how,” says Lum3n’s creator, Dominik Bleilevens. “From preparing the artwork to hosting a website, to handling and tracking on-chain transactions, there are a lot of moving parts. Lum3n brings all of those steps together in one simple platform.”

How It Works

From the start, Lum3n was built to be easy to use, powerful in capability, and fully aligned with TRN’s open and developer-friendly infrastructure. Users can:

• Log in with FuturePass
• View collection dashboards with stats and transaction activity
• Create NFT, SFT, or POAP collections through a step-by-step interface
• Manage their collection post-launch including pricing, payment tokens, minting and trading controls, batch admin minting, metadata updates, and token-gated content
• Launch a minting page for their community hosted by Lum3n and fully connected to their collection

Lum3n does not hold user keys or restrict collection ownership, creators maintain full control at all times and can move or modify their content independently.

Built on The Root Network

Lum3n takes full advantage of The Root Network’s native runtime architecture to deliver a seamless experience for creators. Rather than relying on smart contracts, Lum3n utilizes native pallets that provide direct, efficient access to key functionality like minting, metadata handling, and asset control.

This enables the kind of low-code and no-code workflows that dramatically lower the barrier to entry for creators and communities who want to launch collections. And because The Root Network is purpose-built for interoperable assets and dynamic content, Lum3n is well-positioned to grow alongside an evolving ecosystem.

Lum3n is Now Live

In the spirit of the open metaverse, Lum3n is giving creators the tools to bring their ideas to life. There is no cost to launch a collection right now. Pricing models will be introduced in the coming weeks, but collections will always remain portable and under the control of their creators.

New users are encouraged to experiment on Porcini testnet before launching on mainnet. Instructional videos and documentation are being added soon, and community feedback is actively welcomed as the platform continues to evolve.

If you have been considering launching a collection, now is a great time to get started.

What’s Next

The Lum3n team is focused on expanding the platform’s capabilities, integrating more of TRN’s native features, and supporting the onboarding of new creators into the ecosystem. Their goal is to make launching on TRN as accessible as possible, without compromising on power or flexibility.
