OpenSea has launched a new initiative to make it easier for creators to create and distribute NFTs on its marketplace.
As part of this initiative, creators will be able to launch their NFT collections on their own customizable and dedicated drop pages, which the company hopes will allow for greater visibility and discoverability on the marketplace’s new homepage. Under the customizable drop pages, creators will now have the capability to share images and videos, provide team highlights, outline roadmaps and more.
Project drops on OpenSea will also have access to SeaDrop, a new secure open source smart contract that will facilitate the drop experience, saving creators time and the technicalities involved in creating their own custom smart contracts.
In August OpenSea’s volume had fallen, with massive declines in the daily and monthly transactions on the platform. The marketplace went from processing $405.75 million transactions on May 1 to only processing $5 million worth of NFT transactions on Aug. 28.
