Definition of a new NFT standard to enhance NFT ecosystem

[mhbdev]

Summary

This TEP proposes an extension to the existing NFT standard (TEP-62) to introduce a new operation named get_real_static_data. This operation allows verification of an NFT's collection membership.

I have already written the TEP and submitted a PR. If this proposal gets approved I can write the smart contract code to demonstrate how it works.

Context

The current NFT standard lacks a mechanism for a smart contract to definitively verify that an NFT belongs to a specific collection. While get_static_data in individual NFT contracts reveals the collection address, it doesn't guarantee the NFT's authenticity within that collection.

This extension addresses this limitation, enabling secure verification of collection membership for various use cases, such as:

Marketplaces ensuring NFTs belong to advertised collections before listing.
Games or applications verifying NFT ownership within a specific collection for access or functionality.
Decentralized exchanges (DEXs) verifying NFTs as collateral for loans or other financial operations.
