What Is OpenSea?

OpenSea is the first decentralized NFT marketplace available. Founded in January 2018 by Alex Atallah and Devin Finzer, we have determined that the world is ready for the NFT Marketplace. The market was not a popular name until 2021 when NFTs became so popular and notorious.

In OpenSea you can find many NFTs containing these digital items:

Pictures or Images, digital Artwork, domain name, music, trading cards

To buy, sell, or trade-in NFTs on OpenSea, you need access to a cryptocurrency wallet such as MetaMask. The main currency of OpenSea is Ethereum, but other currencies are also supported.

Buying and selling on OpenSea are very safe and you don’t even have to trust your opponent. When you pay, you get an NFT.

OpenSea works with the “Wyvern Protocol”. This is a set of smart contracts that will ensure that you receive cryptocurrencies after the NFT is sold and vice versa. Battle tests have been performed and proved to be secure against these important transactions.

What Is MetaMask?

We call MetaMask a cryptocurrency wallet, but it’s also a web browser extension that you can use with Google Chrome or other Chromium-based browsers. Brave and Microsoft Edge are two great examples. The blockchain companies Aaron Davis and ConsenSys, the founders of, released MetaMask to the public in 2016. Since then, it has gained more than 1 million users.

Unlike some cryptocurrency wallets, MetaMask specializes in Ethereum and other ETH-based tokens. Therefore, there is no problem in purchasing and storing the cryptocurrencies associated with Ethereum. You can start purchasing NFTs by connecting MetaMask to OpenSea.
