What is OpenSea and how is registration done?

1 What is OpenSea?

OpenSea is a marketplace platform that allows online buying and selling of NFTs. Founded by Devin Finzer and Alex Atallah since March 2020, OpenSea has also grown to become one of the large and popular markets for NFT transactions in the world.

Briefly, NFT (Non-Foldable Token) is a digital asset Which uses blockchain technology so that every transaction can be recorded in it. Later in the NFT there is a unique code that makes the assets registered with specific people.

Each time an NFT is sold, OpenSea will provide a note that the owner has moved from the seller’s account to the buyer’s account at a pre-set price. Furthermore, OpenSea will also record whether the first buyer’s account is selling NFT to the second buyer’s account and so on.

Meanwhile, Ethereum is the main cryptocurrency used for NFT buy and sell transactions on OpenSea. If you want to sell NFT on this platform, you must provide a minimum price of more than $2 or 0.0006 ETH. But if you don’t have your own business, you can also buy the NFT for someone else to resell.

To be able to register an account with OpenSea, you must have a crypto wallet or crypto wallet that will later be used to transfer balances so that they can later be exchanged for real money.

OpenSea itself offers a wide range of crypto wallets that can be connected such as MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Trust Wallet, SFP Wallet, Fortmatic and many more.
