American online non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace OpenSea has announced updates to improve user experience for its OpenSea community.
Shiva Rajaraman said, “we’re excited to reveal the first steps in a design refresh aimed at improving everyone’s OpenSea experience. Our first step includes upgrades to the look and feel of profiles and collections. We’ll continue to roll out changes through the coming weeks, with the goal of putting more focus on our community’s content, simplifying the experience, and making room for richer experiences for our OpenSea community. As part of these changes, we’re also working on upgrades to our technical stack to make everyone’s OpenSea experience quicker and more responsive.”
Opensea wants to give members of its community more opportunities to highlight their favorite content and make it easier to navigate their collections, favorites, and more.
The marketplace has also made changes to collections on OpenSea, making it easier for users to find and browse NFTs from you’re their favorite creators. “You can access any other NFTs a creator has made directly from their collection, making it easy to discover new content from creators you love,” the company added.
Last week, Opensea launched Seaport, a brand new web3 marketplace protocol for safely and efficiently buying and selling NFTs. Seaport will offer innovative ways for users to buy and sell NFTs, including the ability for bidders to pay for NFTs using different assets, rather than just crypto.
The marketplace in April also acquired Gem, the leading NFT marketplace aggregator to enable users to buy NFTs across multiple marketplaces with a single, low-cost transaction.
