- Display Title: [Optional] The title of the NFT that displays on the web. Different from the NFT title, the display title does not have a limitation on the choices of characters and can have up to 64 characters. If it is not provided, it would be the same as the NFT title.
- Display Description: [Optional] The description of the NFT that displays on the web. Different from NFT description, display description does not have any limitations. If it is not provided, it would be the same as the NFT description.

Each file **MUST** be less than 100MB, and its file name **MUST** be in English, no Chinese characters are allowed.

For video NFT, an optional thumbnail(with the format of `.jpg` or `.gif`) can be provided. If it is not provided, the system will automatically generate a GIF with the first 5 seconds of the content of the video.
