Growth Strategies for the NFT Marketplace
Coinbase is debuting its NFT marketplace with the full realisation that there are in this space, including OpenSea, Rarible, and LooksRare amongst others. Based on this knowledge, Coinbase has built its marketplace to serve much more than just a zone for digital arts and collectables trading, but as a hub for community building.
"We're building a marketplace where you can buy and sell NFTs, of course, but more importantly, you can engage," said Sanchan Saxena, Coinbase Exchangeβs VP of Product. "You can engage with the creator. You can engage with the collector. And you can engage with fellow collectors from a community around that NFT. This is an important piece of our strategy."
In a bid to reduce the gas fee incurred by users, Coinbase said it has partnered with 0x to explore every option to make its new marketplace attractive to its broad user base right from the start.
The growth in the adoption of NFTs has made top trading platforms like Binance, FTX, and OKCoin amongst others their own marketplaces. With Coinbase , the outfit is committed to building a competitive outfit that will be as simple as its main crypto trading platform.
