After spending two days on this particular problem, I'm giving up the current approach and will try a new solution tomorrow. It is frustrating to spend so much time on a thing and have almost nothing to show for it. There is a lot I don't know so I am making many, many mistakes.

I want to burn my $AJ token to mint an AJGami nft. Sounds simple but man, it is really fuckin' hard.

I was using Manifold to be able to update the AJGami NFT metadata but I am having trouble using the smart contract I created there. "admins won't be able to see/take action on contracts they've been added to from within Manifold. This functionality is coming soon." So now I'm writing a smart contract from scratch to mint the AJGami NFTs. And a second one to burn my $AJ token. That second bit is also more than I can accomplish so today I'll focus on the first one.

I have scaled back my goals and objectives with each trial and failure. Give me $ and I give you a 💮 flower. Ultimately I want to make a simple mini-app to accomplish this. Right now I'll settle for a couple of smart contracts that get it done.

I don't like to "should" on ppl. I will say that it has been helpful in my journey. Remix is a free online tool for writing smart contracts. For two days I was using ChatGPT exclusively. I was trying to surgically generate the contracts I needed to burn my $AJ token to mint an AJGAMI nft. 

I'm taking a few steps back and walking through the tutorial videos on the Remix website. Perhaps starting with a more basic, widely used solution I will know what to modify to accomplish my own custom project.

Oh fuck yes! What is it? Should I be learning it too?
