OpenSea
OpenSea is usually seen as the “go to place” for discovering, collecting and buying NFTs, since it’s the first and biggest marketplace in the NFT world. In the beginning of 2022, mainly Ethereum based NFTs was available at OpenSea and some based on Polygon blockchain. However, in April 2022, Solana was released and some days, it became the most used NFT related blockchain. OpenSea allow you to find interesting NFT drops, which is the same as new NFT collections released. They also have interesting trending categories worth keeping track on, and OpenSea is also the best marketplace to sell NFTs you don’t want anymore.
Why? You can find top collections over the last 24 hours or the last week, month or year at OpenSea. It’s quick and easy to buy, while it’s equality simple to sell your NFTs here.

Main cons: Selling many edition of rather cheap NFTs, rather than original tokens with only one version.
Volume? Around 27 000 NFTs available to purchase.

Binance NFT
Binance Exchange is the biggest crypto exchange in terms of daily volume and the Binance NFT platform is also important. Mystery Boxes, where you can get NFT surprises, are rather popular. Thanks to the BNB chain, you can buy NFTs for low transfer costs.

Main pros: High competition to get the best NFTs. A huge amount of different non fungible tokens from all kinds of sectors. The possibility to find interesting NFTs in Mystery Boxes. You can buy all products on Binance NFT with BNB.

How unique? Not very unique. Not popular among collectors. It’s rather hard to find the most unique and interesting NFTs on Binance NFT, since the target group seems to be people that don’t want to spend much on NFTs.
