NFT has evolved into a very popular way to own digital assets and has created entirely new NFT marketplaces for buying and selling them. As the NFT craze sweeps the globe, here are the best NFT marketplaces from around the world to buy and sell digital assets. But let’s first understand what NFT marketplaces mean. What is the NFT Marketplace? A non-fungible token marketplace is a decentralized platform for trading and storing non-fungible tokens. Buyers and sellers must both have crypto wallets in order to complete transactions. Asset holders benefit from strong ownership rights, immutability, and security in the NFT marketplace. You must have been following the trend and waiting for a marketplace to emerge. NFT marketplace can also be set up on the Ethereum and Solana networks as a result of which NFT sales on the Ethereum and Solana networks have skyrocketed in less than a year. For artists willing to embrace a shift in how art is owned and distributed, artistic platforms offer life-changing opportunities. Here are the 7 best NFT marketplaces to buy/sell on ETH/SOL networks. Best NFT marketplaces on the Ethereum network 1. OpenSEA Marketplace OpenSea is a decentralized marketplace for digital goods such as collectibles, in-game items, digital art, and other digital assets supported by blockchains such as Ethereum. It is one of the largest NFT marketplaces, with a 24-hour trade volume of about USD 3–5 million. Users save items in their preferred wallet, which could be a mobile wallet like Coinbase Wallet or Opera Touch, or an in-browser extension like MetaMask. Trading on the OpenSea marketplace is done via smart contracts, which means that your items are never held by a central authority. OpenSea is a decentralized application (dApp), which is a user interface for connecting to the blockchain. The benefit of using this marketplace is that NFT creators, such as digital artists, are paid royalties proportional to the value of their tokens. OpenSea utilizes the Ethereum blockchain standards ERC721 and ERC1155 to ensure that the users and NFT creators do genuinely own the items they trade. The company has now begun work on adding support for the Flow and Polygon blockchains. Furthermore, in response to the rising gas fee on the Ethereum blockchain, OpenSea has announced plans to integrate an Ethereum scaling solution. 2. Rarible Marketplace Rarible is the world’s first community-owned digital collectible platform for creating, buying, and selling digital collectibles. Rarible is the world’s first community-owned digital collectibles platform for creating, buying, and selling digital collectibles. You have complete ownership of your tokens because it is a non-custodial market. Users can also obtain intellectual property (IP) rights through the platform’s Proof of Provenance. The marketplace is open to anyone who wants to create and sell their work. 3. SuperRare Marketplace SuperRare collections are inherently social in nature. Digital collectibles are ideal for social settings because their ownership histories are transparent. The social level can aid in the evaluation of values and other contexts associated with market goods. The SuperRare marketplace recently raised $9 million in funding from investors in order to further develop its platform and relaunch it next year. The platform is built on the Ethereum blockchain, and all digital art is represented by standard ERC-721 tokens. Because the art is one-of-a-kind, SuperRare charges a higher fee. The buyer is charged a transaction fee of 3%. The merchant’s transaction fee, on the other hand, is a whopping 15%. Best NFT marketplaces on the Solana network 1. Solanart Marketplace Solanart is a popular Solana NFT Marketplace. Anyone can create, sell, and buy Solana-based NFTs. This marketplace charges a 3% transaction fee for each successful NFT sale. The creator, on the other hand, has the ability to set their own fee. Solanart aims to promote artists and creators by providing a safe marketplace for them to share their work. Popular NFT collections from the Solanart marketplace include Degenerate Ape Academy, Aurora, Solpunks, and Galactic Gecko Space Garage.
