Minting an Art Blocks Token

Project ID Format

All minting tools require a full project ID:

<contract_address>-<project_index>

Example:

0xa7d8d9ef8d8ce8992df33d8b8cf4aebabd5bd270-0

Use

discover_projects

to find the project ID from a name or search term. To find projects currently open for minting, pass

mintable: true

— this filters to only projects with active minters and remaining supply.

Minting Workflow

Step 1 — Understand the minter

Call

get_project_minter_config

first. Returns:

Minter type (set price, Dutch auction, allowlist, RAM, etc.)
Current price and currency (ETH or ERC-20)
Remaining supply (
```
max_invocations - invocations
```
)
Auction timing (start/end, price decay curve for DA minters)
Allowlist details (for gated minters)

Step 2 — Check eligibility (gated projects only)

If the minter type is

MinterMerkleV5

or

MinterHolderV5

, call

check_allowlist_eligibility

before proceeding.

Returns: eligibility status, gate type, and for holder-gated minters, which projects the wallet must hold tokens from.

Step 3 — Build the transaction

build_purchase_transaction

currently supports MinterSetPriceV5 (ETH) only.

Param	Required	Notes
`projectId`	✅	`<contract_address>-<project_index>`
`chainId`	—	Default `1` . See chain IDs below.
`purchaseTo`	—	Mint to a different address (gifting). Check `purchaseTo.disabled` in `get_project_minter_config` first — some projects disable this.

Returns

{ transaction, project, minter, price, purchaseTo, warnings }

. The

warnings

array contains non-fatal issues (paused project, sold out, complete) — always surface these to the user before they sign.

Minter Types

Minter	Description	`build_purchase_transaction`
`MinterSetPriceV5`	Fixed ETH price	✅ Supported
`MinterDAExpV5`	Dutch auction — exponential decay	❌ Use wallet directly
`MinterDALinV5`	Dutch auction — linear decay	❌ Use wallet directly
`MinterMerkleV5`	Merkle allowlist gating	❌ Use wallet directly
`MinterHolderV5`	Holder-gated (must own another token)	❌ Use wallet directly
`RAM`	Ranked auction mechanism	❌ Use wallet directly

For unsupported minters, explain the mechanics from

get_project_minter_config

data and direct the user to their wallet.

Chain IDs

Chain	ID
Ethereum mainnet	`1`
Arbitrum	`42161`
Base	`8453`

Notes

ERC-20 projects:
```
get_project_minter_config
```
indicates the currency token address.
```
build_purchase_transaction
```
only supports ETH — direct ERC-20 users to their wallet.
Dutch auctions: current price decreases over time. Use
```
start_price
```
,
```
end_price
```
,
```
auction_start_time
```
, and
```
auction_end_time
```
from
```
get_project_minter_config
```
to explain current pricing.
purchaseTo
: useful for gifting — mints the token directly to a recipient address instead of the signer.
