OpenSea Announces Polygon Support and New Features

NFT marketplace OpenSea has announced the integration of the layer-2 scaling solution, Polygon, into its service. Thus, the many users of the largest NFT marketplace by volume can now find new Polygon listings and offers through OpenSea’s Seaport protocol.

A host of new features is introduced in this way. They include bulk transfers, elimination of listing thresholds, and multiple creator payouts. In addition, Polygon’s MATIC token can now be used for trading on OpenSea.

Despite the ongoing financial difficulties, OpenSea switched from the Wyvern protocol to Seaport in June. After a few months of testing, the marketplace is now ready to introduce support for additional chains. Apart from Polygon, Klaytn and other EVM-compatible chains are announced for the next several months.
