OpenSea, a trading platform for non-fungal tokens (NFTS), officially introduced its OpenSea2 (OS2) upgrade to the wider audience after a period in beta.
The renewed product now has token trade in 19 block chains while continuing to run from NFTs to the wider cryptomarket.
“OS2 is the basis for the next generation OpenSea,” said Devin Finzer, co-founder and CEO of OpenSea, said in a statement. “We rebuilt the platform from the ground to become the best destination for everything that is in the chain, from NFTs to tokens, about chains and communities.”
The company also announced a makeover of its reward system that recognizes activity in chains with so-called XP points. The system, called Voyages, issues XP to users who complete basic activities, such as sharing a gallery, completing a Swap on-chain or buying an NFT.
“Voyages are a clear step in the direction of a more deliberate kind of involvement in OpenSea,” said Finzer. “It is about encouraging people to explore the full range of what the platform can do about chains, assets and experiences.”
Users will ultimately be able to use accumulated XP to claim the long -awaited airdrop of the sea, which will be the Native OpenSea token.
The Chief Marketing Officer of OpenSea, Adam Hollander, said in a blog post that he “reads comments every day” with regard to when the token will be released, but it insists that the OpenSea Foundation will publish the token in a tokerage event (TGE) only as soon as a series of releases is rolled out.
“If someone who has spent the last four years in the trenches right next to you, I know what it’s like to want an airdrop of $ sea,” said Hollander. “But I also know that this is not just a TGE – it is the TGE. And doing well will not only be a W for the foundation and OpenA, but for our entire space.”
The company has not determined a date for when the token is released.
