Opensea, the world’s largest non-fungible token marketplace (NFT), has leaked photos that show that it may soon offer Solana-based NFTs. Jane Manchun Wong, tech blogger and well-known leaker of details about not-yet-launched features on certain tech platforms, found the images.
Technology Blogger with a history of discovering yet-to-be-launched features says Opensea plans to add Solana Blockchain support
Opensea, the leading NFT marketplace, is well-known for its support of both Ethereum and Polygon Blockchain networks. Opensea has recorded roughly $22.73 billion in NFT sales since the company’s inception, with 1,358,052 traders leveraging the platform. Opensea is likely to add Solana-based NFTs according to Jane Manchun Wong, a tech blogger and well-known hacker.
“Opensea is working on Solana integration, as well as Phantom wallet support,” the tech blogger tweeted. “Opensea’s Chains Filter showing Solana as an option,” Wong added.
Wong’s discovery is not the first time rumors of Opensea adding Solana have surfaced. @bhaleyart: The animator, and Solana advocate tweeted a similar image of Opensea’s blockchain filter in mid-November 2021. Wong is known for publishing leaked images as well as findings about yet-to be launched tech platform features. Forbes 30 Under 30 2022 features Wong as a hacker and tech blogger.
Solana, which has $1.26 Billion in NFT transactions to date, is third largest blockchain. It sold it to 244,107 customers across 1 324,284 transactions. FTX’s NFT marketplace was launched in mid-October. It first offered Solana NFTs, but later the exchange also offers Ethereum NFT support.
With 414,260 traders today and $706 millions in sales volume, the Solana NFT Marketplace Magic Eden is one of the most famous NFT markets that leverage the SOL blockchain. Because Polygon fees are much cheaper than Ethereum’s layer one (L1) fees, Opensea trade volume on the Polygon network has increased a great deal since the chain was implemented. Solana network fees are negligible in comparison to the average fee to use Ethereum’s L1.
