After shutting down in 2020 due to financial issues and poor user growth, the decentralized marketplace appears set to rise again.

Real Vision CEO Raoul Pal likened NFTs from popular collections like CryptoPunks and BAYC to luxury houses and cars.

The creator contract beta release has been tested by users, with 84 contracts deployed and 250 NFTs minted so far.

Users are posting massive files to the Bitcoin network via the Ordinals protocol, taking up block space and paying high fees to do so.

Through Bitcoin payment processors like BitPay, businesses in the UK can offer BTC as a payment method during checkout.

The company enables artists and collectors to create, purchase and resell NFTs via blockchain-enabled transactions.

“You don't have to be a crypto expert to buy, sell, and collect NFTs. OneOf and eBay are bringing transformative Web3 technology to the next 100M non-crypto-native mass consumers,” said OneOf CEO Lin Dai.

A simple mistake led one crypto user to sell his precious rock NFT for 444 WEI instead of 444 ETH, a tenth of a penny rather than $1.2 million.

Pro traders often use the risk reversal options strategy to hedge their bets and profit in the case of an unexpected rally.

The e-commerce giant aims to become the marketplace for Millennials and Gen Z, and given their rising interests in crypto, add new payment options to lure in the customer base.

Oscar Mayer is auctioning off a one-of-one pack of “Hot Doge Wieners” on eBay, with bids hitting $3,050 before bidding was paused.

A representative said that eBay "will add new capabilities that bring blockchain-driven collectibles" to the platform.

Declaring BTC a store of value — e.g., gold 2.0 — but not a medium of exchange, defies logic. It must first have a use case.

According to CEO Jamie Iannone, eBay will be "exploring opportunities" to enable nonfungible tokens.
