Best NFT websites to be a Digital Collector (and earn money)

NFT’s are all the rage right now, and it's still early days. In fact, 2021 is primed to be an even more explosive year...

 

What are NFTs? They are a way for people to buy, collect, trade or sell digital artwork (etc.) online… and also make money. They become like trading cards, or collectibles, but are stored digitally, via a web3 wallet browser extension.

 

Anybody with a web3 wallet can now become a (trusted) collector, and earn passive income by re-selling images online via website marketplaces.

 

They are also a way for artists and creatives to (finally) register their creativity on a global blockchain, and then sell these ‘proofs’ or ‘NFTs’ via website marketplaces. This theoretically reduces the risk of imitation and fraud, (although it doesn’t eradicate this risk completely). The artist Beeple has been selling his NFTs in the millions. 

 

Check out our list below of websites and this list of projects currently involved in NFTs, and the kind of money going into them (see under Market Cap). 

 

Big companies and games like Microsoft and Minecraft are jumping in, so you can - or will soon be able to - own a piece of these major games or releases, and treasure them in a digital wallet.

 

You’ll have to find out about the best wallets to download and store NFTs, but we recommend MetaMask for browser and mobile. You’ll also have to get used to using crypto and making transactions, but there is plenty of information online for all this. 

 

Here, let’s cover some up-and-coming NFT marketplaces where you can explore something to buy and own…

 

 

Makersplace

 

One of the leading, and most accessible sites dedicated to fine art collectibles. Artists need to register and be admitted. The platform gives you a unique gallery to showcase your Collection, and has recently introduced new features. It attempts to make the process simple for newcomers to NFTs and you can purchase art with a variety of payment methods. They will also allocate users a default wallet for holding their NFTs. The artist Beeple recently launched on the platform. 

 

  

Rarible

 

A much more diverse marketplace, and community-minded, with the interesting aspect is that every time you buy or sell an NFT here, you earn cryptocurrency (the RARI platform token). This may sound like a gimmick, but the price of RARI has been doing very well this year, and it also gives holders a say in the running of the platform itself, giving it more value.

 

The RARI token contributes to offsetting some of the (currently high) price of transactions on Ethereum network. 

 

 

Treasureland

 

What makes this platform exciting is that it's multi-chain, and not just on Ethereum. Therefore it has low transaction fees, since it is built for the up-and-coming Binance Smart Chain. (You will need to adjust your Metamask or web3 wallet for the BSC and use BNB for transactions). For the moment, its focus is trading card-style franchises especially BSC-related crypto project collectibles. 

 

Conclusion

 

There are many more sites emerging, including those dedicated to providing artists with their own galleries so they can earn more directly. 

 

So why wait any longer? Start exploring and getting familiar with digital NFT cryptoart and collectible ownership and you could find yourself owning a masterpiece, the next Beeple or a very rare edition of much-loved, rare franchise. 

 

Future

 

Once you own an NFT there are also exciting developments and possibilities in store, as the entire space is evolving. Soon, you could even use your ownership of an NFT as collateral for taking out a loan or for gaining additional cryptocurrency tokens. 

 

Or you could perhaps allow other users with web3 wallets to share partial ownership of the NFT, and allow them to trade that partial ownership as a unique asset for them.

 

Thanks to blockchain technology, NFTs and digital ownership has arrived....
