1/ NFT Creator Community - we have received an incredible amount of interest in @Coinbase_NFT . We are humbled and thankful for your support and excitement. 🙏🙏
I wanted to take a moment to clarify a few things about how creators can join the CB NFT marketplace:
🧵👇
2/ Creators will be able to sign up and sell their NFTs on @Coinbase_NFT at launch. We are building an open marketplace --> you will not need a partnership with Coinbase to use the platform.
3/ Rather, just like any open marketplace, you can get started by simply going through the sign up flow. If you have registered on our waitlist (coinbase.com/NFT/announce), we will invite you from this list at launch. No further action is needed from your side.
4/ Separately, Coinbase NFT marketplace will also feature drops from creators we have partnered with. We announce such collaborations through @Coinbase_NFT. We are starting small, but over time, we will expand this collaboration with even more creators.
5/ Our team is always on a lookout for creators to partner with, but we are just getting started and are growing the Drops program slowly. We will reach out to you ourselves, as we expand the Drops program.
6/ We appreciate your patience - and are excited to welcome more creators to the NFT ecosystem. 🚀 We will share more information over the coming weeks. Stay tuned.
2/ “I don’t think they're a fad. NFTs are fundamental ownership of digital assets. On our computers, we use docs all the time, but we copy, paste, and transfer them. NFTs allow for fundamental ownership of a digital item. As we progress into a completely digital world…”
“...that's going to be an important use case. Right now it's manifesting itself in artwork & communities, but it's going to be the mechanism that we're going to use to represent real assets & ownership. It’s the beginning of a beautiful technological boom.” - @x0rart
Recently, we announced the launch of Coinbase NFT marketplace (coinbase.com/NFT/announce). We have been humbled by the incredible response from the community 🙏🙏.
Here is a quick 🧵to share some initial details. More to share in the upcoming weeks. @coinbase@Coinbase_NFT#NFT
2/ Open for ALL creators --> creators and creativity can manifest from anyplace in the world. We are building an open marketplace where any creator will be able to join, create their profile, build a community and sell their NFTs.
3/ Your NFT is YOURs --> Like @brian_armstrong mentioned, CB embraces decentralization (blog.coinbase.com/embracing-dece…). Every NFT will be minted on-chain, with metadata stored on non-CB servers (e.g IPFS). From day-1, you can take your NFT anywhere you want - it's not a walled garden
1/ I had a great time hosting the 2nd session of #BUIDLCrypto - with the builders of crypto economy - hosted by @coinbase . Over 1,900+ people tuned in to listen to our session on DeFi for Institutions (coinbase.com/buidlcrypto)
Listing some key messages from builders below 👇
2/ “DeFi is pretty much like finance in one way, it’s becoming hard to separate what is finance and what is decentralized finance. Many of the enthusiasts in crypto come from traditional finance, not just developer backgrounds” @StaniKulechov , Founder of @AaveAave
3/ “DeFi started off entirely retail. Then crypto-native funds, and now it’s starting to look and feel like there are..large US and international banks, large hedge funds, a whole new cast of characters that are interested in interacting with DeFi.” @rleshner of @compoundfinance
