The Key Thoughts of Nifty Gateway
- Primarily, Nifty is focusing on only a few artists. It’s all for the reason not to put up any crypto-collectibles for free. New “exhibitions” will come up every three weeks, on Thursday. Moreover, These will be put up on the front page or under” exhibitions”.
- Secondly Gemini, the parent company has simplified all the difficult technology. Selling a Nifty on this platform is as simple as selling on eBay as per the company. The security concerns are also prioritized
- Lastly, the Sale of the artwork on Nifty is in US dollars rather than cryptocurrency where in every art has its own price.
Is Nifty the only one in the market?
Certainly not!! There are many players like R.A.R.E, DADA, Snark, ARTBLAX, CryptoKitties, and OpenSea. Though Winklevoss brothers did not pioneer in this marketplace, a customer might get attracted for numerous reasons as the secured blockchain technology.
The twin brothers were the earliest supporters of cryptocurrency and also the first ‘Prominent virtual currency Billionaires’ in 2013. Winklevoss brothers believe the market for ‘Nifty’ can become large as art, collectibles and digital gaming combined.
