Core Foundation Launches New NFT Marketplace
Core Foundation, a project focused on creating a secure and decentralized ecosystem for dApps, has announced the launch of its non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace. The foundation will also release an NFT collection called Core Journey, which aims to bring more utility to the Core chain.
Background on Core Blockchain
The Core blockchain combines the advantages of Bitcoin with Ethereum compatibility, allowing it to run Ethereum smart contracts and dApps. It has experienced significant growth since its mainnet launch in 2023, attracting millions of Core adopters, over 15 million unique addresses, and 230 million transactions.
Introducing Wizard Gallery
The newly launched NFT marketplace, called Wizard Gallery, operates on the Core Chain and offers seamless NFT minting and trading. With over 20,000 NFTs created by more than 50 artists, Wizard Gallery provides users with a wide selection of digital assets to buy and sell.
Core Journey NFT Collection
The Core Journey NFT collection is now live on Wizard Gallery. This collection celebrates the journey of the Core community and aims to captivate users with its unique artworks. As the popularity of Bitcoin finance (BTCfi) grows, this NFT collection offers an opportunity for users to engage and celebrate their involvement in the Core ecosystem.
Incentive Program for Builders
Core Foundation has also introduced an incentive program called Core Ignition. This program rewards developers for their contributions to the growth of the network. By participating in Core Ignition, users can earn rewards while supporting the development and adoption of Core.
Expanding Support for Web3 Communities
In addition to launching the NFT marketplace, Core Foundation recently established a $5 million innovation fund to support India’s Web3 communities. The project also created a $5 million Africa Ecosystem Fund to provide resources for local Web3 builders.
Hot Take: Core Foundation Empowers the NFT Market
With the launch of its NFT marketplace and the Core Journey NFT collection, Core Foundation is empowering the NFT market by providing a secure and decentralized platform for users to buy, sell, and trade digital assets. This move not only enhances the utility of the Core chain but also supports the growth and adoption of Core by rewarding builders through programs like Core Ignition. As Core continues to establish itself as a leading Bitcoin-aligned EVM chain, it is poised to become a go-to platform for BTCfi and scaling Bitcoin.
