OpenSea, a renowned NFT marketplace, has unveiled its new marketplace, OpenSea Pro, which is an advanced platform designed to meet the needs of professional NFT traders. The platform competes with zero-fee rival Blur and provides users with no fees and offers the best deals by aggregating listings from 170 marketplaces. OpenSea Pro offers advanced floor sweeping, instant sales, inventory management, gas fee optimization, watchlist functionality, and more. The platform is also accessible on mobile devices.
OpenSea Pro is a rebranded version of Gem v2, an NFT aggregation platform that OpenSea acquired in April 2022 to provide professional trading tools to its users. OpenSea CEO, Devin Finzer, credits Gem’s technology for helping develop OpenSea Pro into the most efficient NFT trading tool available, praising the platform for its speed and real-time capabilities.
OpenSea has continued to prioritize retail traders and creators, focusing on partnerships, primary drops, and smart contract standards, despite fierce competition with Blur. The company aims to facilitate the exploration and purchase of NFTs for first-time users while pushing the use cases for NFTs forward. OpenSea hopes users will transition from the main platform to a more professional experience with OpenSea Pro.
The introduction of OpenSea Pro comes in response to the rapid growth of zero-fee NFT marketplace Blur. OpenSea Pro will provide professional trading tools to its users, offering the best deals and no fees to stand out in the competitive NFT trading market. OpenSea Pro’s advanced features will cater to professional traders while remaining accessible to users on mobile devices.
