OpenSea Launches Pro Version on Polygon with Cross-chain Support

In a significant move aimed at enhancing the accessibility and convenience of non-fungible token (NFT) trading, OpenSea has announced its integration with the Polygon network.

This integration empowers OpenSea Pro users to seamlessly navigate both Ethereum and Polygon blockchains, marking a significant step towards simplifying the multi-chain experience for NFT enthusiasts.

OpenSea Pro Simplifies Cross-Chain Navigation

In a thread on X, OpenSea Pro announced that the leading NFT aggregator is now available on Polygon, simplifying cross-chain navigation. One of the standout features of this integration is the ability to bridge tokens across chains and swap them effortlessly within a streamlined process.

OpenSea Pro’s collaboration with Socket, a cross-chain interoperability protocol, is pivotal in enhancing this newfound efficiency. Users can now switch between Ethereum and Polygon, exploring the diverse NFT offerings available on both networks without the hassle of extensive transactions and conversions.

Notably, OpenSea Pro’s move to integrate with Polygon came when Binance NFT recently discontinued its support for the Polygon network. Binance NFT justified this decision by stating that it was made “after careful consideration and evaluation” and emphasized its commitment to providing the best possible NFT experience for its users.

OpenSea Pro’s expansion to Polygon, therefore, presents an alternative for NFT enthusiasts looking for a seamless cross-chain experience.

OpenSea Pro Paves the Way for a Multi-Chain Web3 Future

In its announcement, OpeanSea Pro expressed its vision, stating,

“Web3’s future is multichain…and we’re taking the first steps to accelerate that vision by aggregating popular NFT marketplaces on Polygon – with more to come.”

OpenSea Pro’s integration with Polygon reflects its vision of a multi-chain future for Web3. By aggregating renowned NFT marketplaces on the Polygon network, OpenSea Pro is positioning itself to incorporate more blockchains in the near future.

In addition to the Polygon integration, OpenSea Pro recently introduced private sales, allowing users to create private listings for specific wallet addresses without platform fees.

These listings can be customized using cross-collection bundles, enabling users to group multiple NFTs into one listing. It also offers comprehensive support for ERC-721 and ERC-1155 tokens, providing users flexibility and choice in their private sales endeavors.

OpenSea Pro’s continued commitment to enhancing the NFT trading experience, coupled with its expansion to the Polygon network, solidifies its position as the leading NFT marketplace, ranked by number of active traders over a 30-day period, according to crypto market insights and analytics platform Crypto Rank.
