💡 Intro

Yesterday afternoon: OpenSea announced they’re adding Seaport aggregation directly into OpenSea listings.

Seaport is a new web3 marketplace protocol created by OpenSea for safely and efficiently buying and selling NFTs.

Why This Matters:

  • Before: NFTs from NFT platforms like Sound and ENS Vision were typically found only on those platforms, limiting their reach (as most traders use OpenSea, Blur, etc).

  • Now: OpenSea traders can discover and buy/sell those NFTs directly on OpenSea.

  • This should make more Web3 traders find NFTs from those platforms + potentially make them more valuable.

  • Keep an eye out for when OpenSea announces future platform integrations: there may be an opportunity there.

Since the bear market: there hasn’t been many interesting NFT innovations to cover. But thankfully: there’s finally a new one!

BTC NFTs are being created directly on-chain and are immutable, using Inscriptions: digital artifacts native to the Bitcoin Blockchain.

This full thread covers how to get started (we’re also publishing a feature on Sparrow Wallet tomorrow). BTC NFTs do take a fair amount of manual setup to use, but whenever something is challenging in crypto, there’s the potential of opportunity for traders.
