## Argument

During the reporting period, two of my pull requests were merged.

1. https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/8281. A simple common implementation for `XcmPaymentApi::query_weight_to_asset_fee` that can be easily used by any chain Runtime.
This PR is a simple alternative to https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/8202.
It uses a workaround instead of a big refactoring.

2. https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/5620: This PR introduces a new set of traits that represent different asset operations in a granular and abstract way.
The new abstractions provide an interface for collections and tokens for use in general and XCM contexts.

Also, I updated and refactored the related XCM NFT PR containing the XCM adapters that use the new NFT traits: https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/4300.
It is in the review process. It also contains a new `pallet-derivatives` Pallet to simplify different support scenarios of derivative assets (see the PR description, crate docs, and test docs for details).
