NFT Marketplace OpenSea Hits World’s Sales Records

Non-fungible tokens have proved their status as major trendsetters in the cryptocurrency market in 2021. At the end of last year, the total amount of all transactions made in the sector of non-fungible tokens (NFT) exceeded $250 million, demonstrating an impressive growth rate of 299% in annual terms.

Among several competing NFT marketplaces, OpenSea – a decentralized marketplace selling rare digital items and crypto-collectibles – turned out to be the most prominent and fruitful one. Since the start of 2021, against a backdrop of skyrocketing mass interest in NFT-campaigns, it managed to gain more than $10 billion in sales and trading volume and set the new all-time high sales record in November. The second most popular NFT market Axie Infinity (AXS) in the meantime exceeded $3 billion in sales.

The largest NFT market dominating the whole sector, nowadays Opensea boasts many “big names” of internationally acclaimed artists and wealthy individual NFT creators who largely contribute to its highest sales volumes. One of Opensea’s major assets is its accessibility for both skilled traders and crypto newbies: anyone can join the market for buying or selling digital collectibles in several simple steps, right after setting up a crypto wallet and linking it to the platform. There are numerous NFT categories on the Opensea to choose from: images, videos, audio, 3D art, trading cards, designs, utilities, and so on.

Those wishing to learn more about the NFT market should definitely take a closer look at other huge platforms that also secured their spot in the top ten most popular NFT markets: Larva Labs/CryptoPunks, NBA Top Shot Marketplace, Rarible, SuperRare, Foundation, and others.

Elon Musk wants Twitter to be a free speech town square

  Elon Musk wants Twitter to be a free speech town square by   daysall     April 18, 2022 0 SHARES Elon Musk’s vision for Twitter is a public town square where there are few restrictions on what people can or can’t say on the Internet. But the utopian ideal envisioned by the Tesla CEO ceased to exist long ago and doesn’t take into account what’s happening in the real world, tech executives, Twitter employees and Silicon Valley insiders say. As Musk seeks a $43 billion hostile takeover bid for Twitter, critics say his ambition for what the platform should be — a largely unpoliced space rid of censorship — is naive, would hurt the company’s growth prospects and would render the platform unsafe. Twitter, Facebook and other social networks have spent billions of dollars and employed armies of people to create and enforce policies to reduce hate speech, misinformation and other toxic communication that degrades public discourse. In doing so, they’ve provoked the ire not o...

Last month, emails from Trump and his allies in the final weeks of his term in office revealed that they attempted to pressure the Justice Department to look into their unsubs...

The US and China both have their eyes on a country at the heart of the Indo-pacific

Indonesian light frigate KRI Bunt     Tensions continue to rise in the Indo-Pacific, where China's economic growth and military modernization have drawn the attention and concern of politicians and defense officials in the region and around the world. As China and the US compete for influence in the region, they are setting their sights on a country that has historically resisted getting involved in foreign affairs: Indonesia. With over 270 million people, Indonesia is the fourth-largest country in the world and the third-largest in Asia. Made up of over 17,000 islands that straddle the Pacific and Indian oceans, it has a commanding position over the vital Strait of Malacca and the traditional maritime approaches to Australia. "The geopolitical challenges of the future, Indonesia sits in an incredibly important strategic location," Michael Green, senior vice president for Asia and Japan chair at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, told Insider.
