Subject: [PATCH] Update minting-nfts.md

In metadada.json file the token name should be in utf-8 format, not in hex format, otherwise there is a problem with metadata.json displaying in pool.pm.
This pull request tries to solve this problem. Feel free to change it to more understandable way, I just want to draw attention to this problem.
Kind regards
Martin from CBROS

 ### Set variables
 We will set important values in a more readable variable for better readability and debugging of failed transactions.
+
+Since cardano-node version 1.31.0 the token name should be in hex format. We will set the variable $realtokenname (real name in utf-8) and then convert it to $tokenname (name in hex format). 
 ```bash
-tokenname=$(echo -n "NFT1" | xxd -b -ps -c 80 | tr -d '\n')
+realtokenname="NFT1"
+tokenname=$(echo -n $realtokenname | xxd -b -ps -c 80 | tr -d '\n')
