+## Project Overview :page_facing_up:
+
+We propose to build a searchable database that provides a record of precedence, cross-chain analysis, proof of history, context, security, and ownership of NFTs across multiple parachains in the Polkadot ecosystem and other Blockchains. The tracker will collect data like NFT creation, past ownership history, metadata. The data will be made accessible via polybase.
+
+### Project Context
+
+1. The continuous indexation of several blockchains.
+2. A more human-understandable output.
+3. NFT Search Engine.
+4. Providing history, precedence, security and context all devoid of the value of the NFT.
+5. Leveraging the power of POLYBASE to index multiple Blockchains and nonBlockchain data.
+6. A record of precedence, cross-chain analysis, proof of history, context, and security of ownership.
+### Project Details
+
+Architecture:
+
+  A standard asset tracking SDK will be built with the following layers:
+  - Blockchain layer: Access to the blockchain data source and crawl through the blocks from genesis block
+  - Middleware layer: Contains the crawlers through which we can crawl the blockchain and collect information about NFTs and write into the database and index it.
+  - SDK: This package will have all the necessary functions to fetch details about the NFT asset.
+
+Technology stack: 
+- Polybase (Polylang) 
+- Typescript 
+- Elasticsearch
+- JavaScript
+- Python
+- C/C++
+- VECTOR EMBEDDING SEARCH
+- [Rust-web3](https://github.com/tomusdrw/rust-web3)
+- Nginx, AWS
+
+### Ecosystem Fit
+There are quite a few projects in the Polkadot/Kusama ecosystem which are working with NFTs. And going forward with XCM v4 supporting cross chain transfer of NFT's, we believe tracking and tracing of the entire lifecycle of an NFT will not only be a need but a must have.
+
+The DataBlock data will be a great way for these projects to implement provenance for their projects and will save a lot of time and effort to build this from scratch.
+
+Later on we can extend EVM compatibility to this project to make it more versatile.

+## Future Plans
+
+To connect the raw data to a machine learning model and bring in  [Sotunbo David Ayomide](https://github.com/sotunboolamide) to work on the models. Also add [Dhikrullah Oriade Durosinmi](https://github.com/EngineerSk) to the team.
