Top 7 Popular Marketplaces for NFTs, Crypto Art & Digital Collectibles
Popular NFT Marketplaces.
1) NFTfi
NFTfi is a simple marketplace for NFT collateralized loans where users can put their NFT assets up as collateral for a loan, or offer loans to other users on their non-fungible tokens. Borrowers can use their NFTs as collateral by putting any ERC-721 token up for collateralization. Other users can then offer the borrower a loan. If the borrower accepts a loan, the ETH gets paid out from the lender’s account, and the borrower’s NFT gets locked in the NFTfi smart contract. Once they repay the loan the asset will be transferred back into their possession. If the borrower fails to repay the total owed by the agreed date, their asset will be transferred to the lender. Check out this in-depth review of the NFTfi platform.

3) NFT Trader
NFTtrader is a peer-to-peer non-fungible token trading platform. The team developed a fully on-chain Ethereum based platform which offers a direct P2P trustless method for swapping NFTs between unknown users. Users can trade NFTs from across different Dapps. The user only needs to perform 3 steps in the process. The 1st step, NFT Trader automatically allocates the user’s wallet’s NFTs into their respective DApps. The user selects their desired DApp from the list and then chooses the NFT they want to trade. The second step, the user selects a new DApp from the list and then the NFT that they want to swap for from a counterpart. The final step is initiated by paying a small transaction fee to generate the trade link. Then that user shares this link with the counterpart. For the counterpart all they have to do is click on that shared link then accept or reject the swap offer. If accepted, the NFT will be transferred to their wallet.
