Blockchain.com NFT Marketplace Launches Beta Access
Non-fungible token (NFT) assets have become a billion-dollar industry and it seems like this technology will be a mainstay for years to come. As the NFT hype grows exponentially in 2021, a number of crypto-asset exchanges have launched NFT markets this year. Well-known exchanges like Crypto.com, Coinbase, and FTX have revealed NFT markets in the midst of giant standalone NFT markets like Opensea and Rarible. Now Blockchain.com, the cryptocurrency-dedicated financial services company, has announced its NFT marketplace.
âWe want to make accessing the NFT market as easy as accessing the crypto market,â Blockchain.comâs announcement details. âWith the Blockchain.com NFT marketplace (in beta), youâll be able to browse, buy, sell, and securely store NFTs without ever leaving your Blockchain.com Wallet.â
Firm Releases NFT Explorer
Blockchain.comâs NFT market launch announcement follows the firmâs recent acquisition of the Argentina-based investment platform Sesocio. The acquisition brings Blockchain.comâs employee headcount to 400 workers worldwide, and it plans to establish a physical presence in Latin America. Starting today, people can sign up for beta access to the companyâs new NFT marketplace which will allow users to âbuy, sell, and store NFTsâ inside their Blockchain.com noncustodial wallet.
The company also launched an NFT explorer which gives information on non-fungible tokens such as current price, floor price, information on the current NFT owner, and the last sale price. Blockchain.comâs NFT explorer information stems from Ethereum-based NFTs hosted on the Opensea NFT marketplace. The announcement blog post also gives the reader some insight that shows individuals step-by-step directions on how to purchase an NFT on Blockchain.comâs marketplace.
