Solana NFT Marketplaces

Magic Eden NFT Market Place

What is an NFT first of all? A non-Fungible Token is a digital asset that simply proves ownership of digital items such as images, art, video games, or virtual lands. With blockchain technology like Ethereum or Solana, Digital ownership is stored on the decentralized network.

The latest NFT statistics suggest Non-Fungible Tokens may be one of the most exciting trends to ever hit the cryptocurrency landscape. In 2021, NFT sales hit a massive $25 billion, with countless individuals purchasing everything from video clips to cartoon monkeys. That is an unprecedented change in NFT sales volume and 2022 is the time NFT goes nuclear potentially with innovations.

The Top Solana Marketplace for NFTs is Magic Eden where you can create, sell and buy NFTs. They have a listing fee of 0% rather they take 2% on every transaction. Creators can set their royalties and paid immediately after a sale happens.

Magic Eden supports almost all Solana Wallets from Phantom, Slope, Sollet, Solflare, Clover, Ledger, Solong, and MathWallet.

Magic Eden has popular NFT projects/collections ranging from Stoned Ape Crew, Shadowy Super Coders DAO, GALACTIC GORILLÆ GANG, and much more.

Bots exploit NFT Marketplaces

In the world of cryptocurrency, NFTs are all the rage. However, there is a dark side to the world of NFTs. Recently, NFT bots have been exploiting marketplaces at a rapid pace. These bots buy up large quantities of NFTs sometimes 90% of the total supply! This bot effect also drives up gas wars on networks like $Ethereum. Programmable bots are great at automatically sweep floors of collections or sending out thousands of bids in a collection hoping for a paper hand shake out.

OPENSEA: A LEADING PLATFORM FOR TRADING NON-FUNGIBLE TOKENS (NFTS)

OpenSea is a leading platform for trading non-fungible tokens or NFTs. As the largest NFT marketplace in the world, OpenSea is a major player in the NFT ecosystem, offering a wide range of NFTs for sale and facilitating transactions between buyers and sellers. It’s the Amazon of the non-fungibles.

SUBMITTING A WEBSITE TO GOOGLE SEARCH CONSOLE

Are you a website developer or an SEO specialist? Do you have a website but having trouble being found? You must now submit your website to Google directly. Google dominates the search engine market worldwide by 92.47% as of 2021!

An SEO specialist performs page optimization on a website to ensure that search results are relevant and to create a positive user experience, which can increase website traffic, leads, and brand awareness.

Conclusion

Congrats you’ve successfully created a wallet with Phantom for your future! Now, you could send Solana to your Phantom wallet, stake it, swap it, and buy NFT using your Phantom wallet. With a secure wallet like a phantom now you can navigate Solana Ecosystem from DEFI, play-to-earn games, NFTs, and Metaverse.
