Key Takeaways
- Leading NFT marketplace OpenSea announced its migration to Seaport Protocol, which aims to cut down gas fees by 35% and is estimated to save users up to 138,000 ETH in total. This will replace its less-efficient Wyvern protocol and will host new features such as bulk listing feature (list multiple NFTs for sale and only pay for one gas fee), as well as adding more than one payout address for sales and royalties in the future.
