Key Points:
The new OpenSea functionality enables users to easily transfer assets across seven different chains, including Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, Zora, and Polygon. Supported assets for swap include ETH, WETH, USDC, MATIC, and DAI. The implementation leverages Socket’s liquidity aggregation protocol for seamless transactions.
Although OpenSea may introduce bridging fees in the future, the current services incur no additional charges. The platform’s integration with Socket’s bridging plugin empowers dApp developers to customize bridging solutions with ease, featuring options such as custom widget design, preset chain selection, approved bridging lists, and selected token lists, requiring minimal coding effort.
Despite the new OpenSea functionality being launched to promote progress, the NFT marketplace faced a decline in monthly NFT sales volume in March, attributed to a decrease in user activity since the start of the year. While November 2021 saw a peak of 544,000 active users, March recorded only 80,000 users completing transactions.
Amidst these developments, OpenSea CEO Devin Finzer revealed the company’s openness to acquisition proposals, considering potential offers to sell the platform. Once dominating the second-hand NFT sales market, OpenSea now contends with competition from rival marketplaces, which has launched aggressive strategies to gain market share.
