Following the footsteps of major crypto and NFT-centered trading platforms like Binance, Bybit, and Coinbase, the cryptocurrency exchange Kraken has announced the launch of its own NFT marketplace Public Beta.
The beta version of Kraken NFT platform was primarily launched in November for a selected group of private testers. After a month of fruitful work, on December 22nd, the marketplace was opened to the public. The news arrived via Kraken NFT Twitter post, saying: "The Kraken NFT Public Beta is now live — just in time for the holidays! You are now able to access our NFT marketplace as you build the NFT collection of your dreams with zero on-platform gas fees."
Thus, according to the announcement, the Kraken NFT marketplace will be secure and user-friendly: with zero gas fees for users and respect for creator royalties. The platform was built from scratch, claiming itself as the most dynamic and easy-to-use marketplace, with over 100 most sought-after NFT collections like BAYC or Meebits currently available for trading, while new series are promised to be added regularly.
The initial NFT collections available for whitelisting on Kraken NFT platform will be only those, driven by Ethereum Mainnet and Solana, while many other blockchains will be adopted in a while.
The beneficial features of Kraken NFT marketplace deserve special attention. As the official Kraken blog reads, these are the following:
- Data protection and verified collections. Kraken asks users to rest easy knowing that each trade they make is protected by industry-leading security. Alongside, each collection is carefully vetted before joining an ever-growing Kraken NFT portfolio, which is deprived of fakes or spam.
- NFT Rarity tracker. The fundamental role in NFT price formation belongs to the asset's traits and attributes that determine its rarity. Kraken NFT’s rarity rankings offer an easy way to understand what makes each NFT unique, allowing users to effortlessly determine the asset's real-time price.
- Real-time NFT market data. Cryptowatch, integrated into the marketplace, allows screening real-time and average NFT pricing data and tens of other stats for hundreds of collections.
- Bidding with fiat and 200+ cryptocurrencies. Connected with the Kraken exchange, the NFT marketplace allows users to buy, trade, or build NFTs using their bank card with eight fiat currencies or any of 200+ cryptocurrencies Kraken supports in their region.
- A fully-integrated crypto platform. Each NFT holder automatically gets access to a full suite of Kraken crypto-related products and services, from intuitive mobile apps up to a customizable trading interface.
The new Kraken NFT platform allows NFT-savvy collectors and creators, as well as newcomers to the space to effortlessly enter the market. The latter will be treated to an extensive study course through ample material concerning NFTs, web3, and blockchain via Kraken Learn Center. Moreover, 24/7 live support is always there, ready to assist any user.
