Non-fungible token with adaptable digital files

Abstract

The invention relates to adaptation/alteration of a digital file referenced to a Non-Fungible Token (NFT) via NFT metadata-defined adaptation rules and criteria, i.e., predefined conditions or events that trigger the occurrence of digital file adaptation. The adapted digital file may be presented to indicate a change in a state associated with a specific type of NFT. The NFT may be an authentication NFT used to verify the identity of a user/users, and the digital file may be presented within computing networks or applications for conveying user authenticity to other users within the computing network or application. The predefined conditions are security events that have a positive/negative impact on the authenticity of the user or group of users. Occurrence of one or more of the predefined security events triggers adaptation and presentation of the adapted digital file indicating an increase/decrease in the level of authenticity associated with the user/users.
