Upcoming Changes at OpenSea
OpenSea is planning significant changes in the project, including the upcoming launch of OS2. According to the CEO, this is a brand new OpenSea built from the ground up. The OS2 open beta is now live and offers a completely reimagined product for collectors and pros. The platform brings NFTs and tokens together in one place, introduces new ways to explore, will support 14 blockchains including Flow and ApeChain, and will allow cross-chain purchases. Users will enjoy marketplace fees of 0.5% and zero swap fees. OS2 will offer rewards for all user types.
Other Changes at OpenSea
OpenSea's CEO noted that the team is working on changing policies, including re-enabling locked items, delisted collections, and removing unnecessary bans. He explained that the NFT market changed the team, making it more corporate. The decision was made to completely reset and rebuild technology, products, and culture to create the best crypto products and continue shipping new NFTs, tokens, and creator tools.
OpenSea is actively preparing for the upcoming airdrop and platform updates to stay at the forefront of the crypto industry.
