In Brief:
- Blockchain.com announced the launch of its first NFT marketplace yesterday.
- The NFT marketplace would allow users to buy, sell, and hold NFTs in their wallets.
Blockchain.com, a cryptocurrency financial services firm announced on Twitter about the launch of its first NFT marketplace following the footsteps of FTX and Coinbase.
The company’s planned NFT marketplace will allow users to buy, sell, and hold NFTs in their Blockchain.com wallets.
The firm has helped tens of millions of people gain access to cryptocurrency over the last 10 years by making it simple to buy, sell, swap, store, and earn it. The firm now aims to make it as simple as possible for anyone to participate in the exciting new NFT market.
In a blog post, the company stated, “The growth and excitement in the NFT space is undeniable, but we see many of the same challenges to adoption that crypto faced in its earlier days. Specifically, accessing the NFT market is far too complex and unintuitive.”
It further stated, “We want to make accessing the NFT market as easy as accessing the crypto market. With the Blockchain.com NFT marketplace (in beta), you’ll be able to browse, buy, sell, and securely store NFTs without ever leaving your Blockchain.com Wallet.”
The marketplace is still in the beta phase. Users can sign up for the beta waitlist to get the first access.
Coinbase, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, also announced its NFT marketplace on October 11, but it is still in testing phase.
