# Introduction

We came up with ENVELOP (NIFTSY) when we studied the entire NFT market over the last four years. We are not an aggregator, not another platform for creating NFTs, and certainly not a new blockchain. But we provide an opportunity to make money for everyone: the author, the publisher, the distributor, the developer, the stakeholder, and any active member of the community.

In this documentation we will explain the technology stack that is used in ENVELOP (NIFTSY). We will introduce the basic working methods of the Protocol (then Oracle and Index), and describe the basic functionality of the elements described.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://niftsy-protocol-niftsy-1.gitbook.io/niftsy/tech/technical-paper/introduction.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
