DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0050] The following detailed description is merely exemplary in nature and is not intended to limit the described embodiments or the application and uses of the described embodiments. As used herein, the word exemplary or illustrative means serving as an example, instance, or illustration. Any implementation described herein as exemplary or illustrative is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other implementations. All of the implementations described below are exemplary implementations provided to enable persons skilled in the art to make or use the embodiments of the disclosure and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure, which is defined by the claims. For purposes of description herein, the terms first, second, left, rear, right, front. vertical, horizontal, and derivatives thereof shall relate to the invention as oriented in FIG. 1. Furthermore, there is no intention to be bound by any expressed or implied theory presented in the preceding technical field, background, brief summary or the following detailed description. It is also to be understood that the specific devices and processes illustrated in the attached drawings, and described in the following specification, are simply exemplary embodiments of the inventive concepts defined in the appended claims. Hence, specific dimensions and other physical characteristics relating to the embodiments disclosed herein are not to be considered as limiting, unless the claims expressly state otherwise.

[0051] At the outset, it should be clearly understood that like reference numerals are intended to identify the same structural elements, portions, or surfaces consistently throughout the several drawing figures, as may be further described or explained by the entire written specification of which this detailed description is an integral part. The drawings are intended to be read together with the specification and are to be construed as a portion of the entire written description of this invention as required by 35 U.S.C. 112.

[0052] Please refer to FIG. 1, it shows a block diagram of the lottery drawing method for multiple NFT prize. The method comprising the steps listed below. [0053] Step 101: Randomly generating a first wallet ID and a first blockchain ID for a NFT prize game created in a NFT lottery system, wherein the NFT prize game contains three types of the NFT prizes, which are third tier NFT prizes, second tier NFT prizes, and first tier NFT prizes.

[0054] In this step, the first wallet ID and the first blockchain ID are stored in a secure database of the NFT lottery system. Therefore, there is no way for others to know what the specific IDs of the prize are, thus protecting the fairness of each player in the lottery game. [0055] Step 102: Randomly generating a second wallet ID when a user creates a crypto wallet in the NFT lottery system. [0056] Step 103: Randomly generating a second blockchain ID when the user uses the crypto wallet to buy a NFT lottery ticket in the NFT lottery system. [0057] Step 104: Comparing the second wallet ID and the second blockchain ID with the first wallet ID and the first blockchain ID, then there will be four different results. They are listed as, a result, b result, c result, and d result below. [0058] (a) if the second wallet ID matches with last digit or letter of the first wallet ID, and the second blockchain ID matches with last digit or letter of the first blockchain ID, the user wins one of the third tier NFT prizes; or [0059] (b) if the second wallet ID matches with last two digits or letters of the first wallet ID, and the second blockchain ID matches with last two digits or letters of the first blockchain ID, the user wins one of the second tier NFT prizes; or [0060] (c) if the second wallet ID matches with last three digits or letters of the first wallet ID, and the second blockchain ID matches with last two digits or letters of the first blockchain ID, the user wins one of the first tier NFT prizes; or [0061] (d) if the second wallet ID doesn't match with last digit or letter of the first wallet ID, or the second blockchain ID doesn't match with last digit or letter of the first blockchain ID, the user wins nothing. [0062] Step 105: Sending matching result and corresponding NFT prize, if any, to the user. For example, if the result is d, a message is sent and displayed to inform the user of such outcome, and no prize will be sent to the user.

[0063] In this embodiment, the present invention further comprising a step to confirm the match results after Step 104 to double-check whether the winning result is correct. When the result is confirmed, it will move on to step 105.

[0064] In some embodiments, each possible tier prize will have a corresponding NFT design. For example, the first tier NFT prize could have a similar base logo with gold colors. These additional designed are stored until the match has been verified. Once the system has verified a match, the user will be presented with the corresponding design.

[0065] Through the above-mentioned special matching method and the lottery drawing method that utilizes full digitization, the user can quickly and simply carry out the lottery game, and because the prizes are all carried out in the form of NFTs, the prizes that each winner receives are unique. This also increases the player's motivation to participate and the sense of accomplishment after receiving the prize. In addition, when the ticket of the NFT lottery game is purchased, the user's wallet ID and email are securely saved and encrypted. Not only does this allow for a way to contact winning matches, as it also allows for a periodic selection of winners to be selected from our database in raffle style.

[0066] In another aspect, this invention also discloses a NFT lottery system 1, which uses a lottery drawing method mentioned above. The system 1 comprising: [0067] an ID generator 11, for randomly generating a first wallet ID, a first blockchain ID for an NFT prize game created in the NFT lottery system, and a second wallet ID and a second blockchain ID, wherein the NFT prize game contains three types of the NFT prizes, which are third tier NFT prizes, second tier NFT prizes, and first tier NFT prizes; [0068] a comparing processor 12, which is connected to the ID generator 11 for comparing the second wallet ID and the second blockchain ID with the first wallet ID and the first blockchain ID, wherein: [0069] (a) if the second wallet ID matches with last digit or letter of the first wallet ID, and the second blockchain ID matches with last digit or letter of the first blockchain ID, the user wins one of the third tier NFT prizes; or [0070] (b) if the second wallet ID matches with last two digits or letters of the first wallet ID, and the second blockchain ID matches with last two digits or letters of the first blockchain ID, the user wins one of the second tier NFT prizes; or [0071] (c) if the second wallet ID matches with last three digits or letters of the first wallet ID, and the second blockchain ID matches with last two digits or letters of the first blockchain ID, the user wins one of the first tier NFT prizes; or [0072] (d) if the second wallet ID doesn't match with last digit or letter of the first wallet ID, or the second blockchain ID doesn't match with last digit or letter of the first blockchain ID, the user wins nothing; and [0073] a notifying processor 13, which is connected to the comparing processor 12 for informing the user whether there is a win and what NFT prize is won.

[0074] In the embodiments, the first wallet ID and the second wallet ID have 40 digits respectively and begin with 0x, and the first blockchain ID and the second blockchain ID have 8 digits respectively.

[0075] In some embodiments, each tier of the NFT prizes have different value. For example, the third tier NFT prizes are NFT branded clothing, the second tier NFT prizes are luxury brand merchandise, like watches, and the first tier NFT prizes contain vacations, celebrity meet-ups, luxury cars and/or houses. Since the value is different, the odds are also different. For example, the odd of winning the third tier NFT prizes is between 1/340 and 1/11,560, and preferred odd is 1/340: the odd of winning the second tier NFT prizes is between 1/115,600 and 1/3,930,400, and preferred odd is 1/115,600; the odd of winning the first tier NFT prizes is between 1/11,560,000 to 1/13,363,360,000, and preferred odd is 1/11,560,000. In this way, the NFT prize value of each tier can be matched by reducing the chance of winning.

[0076] In some embodiments, the notifying processor 13 will inform both the user and an employee of the NFT lottery system 1 of a winning match, so that the employee could also trace the winning record. Compared to traditional lottery, users of the NFT lottery have the ability to maintain privacy from the general public by simply disclosing as little information on their winnings as they like.

[0077] In other embodiments, any past owners of an NFT prize will be added to a royalty pool on the NFT prize they owned. Essentially, they will earn a small amount from each sale following their own. Right now, the system 1 is to cap this royalty pool at a shared 2.5%, meaning as an individual NFT prize accumulates more previous owners, the amount paid to each user will decrease with a total amount paid equaling 2.5% of each sale. This will be automated through the tracking of wallet IDs and emails in which the system already uses, and implemented through a process known as smart contracts.

[0078] Since many modifications, variations, and changes in detail can be made to the described preferred embodiments of the invention, it is intended that all matters in the foregoing description and shown in the accompanying drawings be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense. Thus, the scope of the invention should be determined by the appended claims and their legal equivalence.
