Coinbase NFT to Help Grow Creator Community ‘Exponentially’

Today, we’re announcing Coinbase NFT, a peer-to-peer marketplace that will make minting, purchasing, showcasing, and discovering NFTs easier than ever.
” Just as Coinbase allowed millions to access bitcoin in an easy-to-use and trusted manner, we also want to do it for NFTs,” he said.
Coinbase explained further: “All NFTs can be found on-chain. The initial launch will support Ethereum based ERC-721 and ERC-1155 standards with multi-chain support planned soon after. We will provide the best user experience but we won’t lock in creators.” Anyone interested can sign up now for early access.
Noting that “industries like fashion, gaming and music are recognising the power of NFTs in unlocking new forms of creativity, ownership, and ownership,” the Coinbase Vice President noted, “If your tried to create an NFT or buy one, you’ve likely found the user experience lacking .”
Coinbase wants to simplify the process. They claim: “We’re making it easier for NFTs by creating user-friendly interfaces that hide the complexity. We are adding social features that allow for new avenues of conversation and discovery,” the VP stated.
We’re going to grow the creator community exponentially, a win for artists and for fans.
