What happened?
An anonymous NFT (non-fungible token) investor 'John.weth' publicly revealed the interface of the new version of the NFT trading platform OpenSea for the first time on X, and disclosed that the platform will soon introduce an 'XP' point system.
In addition to the XP point system, OpenSea's interface has also been revamped to provide users with clearer information and cater to the needs of advanced traders.
Foreign media (The Block) believes that the launch of the XP point system 'may' indicate that there will be a token airdrop in the future.
The new version of OpenSea introduces the 'XP point system'
Devin Finzer, CEO of the well-known NFT (non-fungible token) trading platform OpenSea, stated in early November that the company's team is planning a new version of OpenSea to be launched in December, with adjustments equivalent to 'starting from scratch'.
Recently, an anonymous NFT investor 'John.weth' revealed the new version of OpenSea's interface on X for the first time and disclosed that the platform will soon introduce an 'XP' point system. According to the screenshot shared by John.weth, XP represents the achievements of users on the platform, and accumulating XP points will gradually unlock more rewards.
The new version of OpenSea also features a leaderboard to display users' point rankings. To earn X points, users can list NFTs from their profiles or bid on 'popular collectibles'. However, the platform also warns users that those who attempt to manipulate the leaderboard through false transactions may face penalties such as point deductions or point resets.
John.weth stated that the top 10 users on the leaderboard each day can receive additional point bonuses, with a maximum bonus of 2.5 times, while the bonus for ranks 51 to 100 is 1.2 times. Furthermore, if users choose to exclusively list NFTs on the OpenSea platform, they can also earn additional XP.
OpenSea's new interface provides more detailed information
In addition to the XP point system, OpenSea's interface has also been revamped. The new homepage will showcase the NFT series with the highest daily trading volume, the projects with the largest increase, weekly sales records, and popular trend collections, providing users with clearer information.
The new personal profile page also presents a more comprehensive view of all activities related to the wallet, covering nearly all transaction situations, allowing traders to track and manage trades more intuitively.
It is worth noting that in the bottom right corner of the screenshot shared by John.weth, the selected tab is 'Pro', indicating that the design of the new OpenSea page will continue to meet the needs of advanced traders. This strategy is similar to another NFT market, Blur, aimed at professional traders.
Of course, in addition to the 'Pro' interface, users can also switch to the 'Collector' perspective. Foreign media (The Block) analyzes that this means the platform may offer a more simplified interface suitable for beginners or ordinary collectors.
Whether OpenSea will issue a platform token has always been a key concern for users. (The Block) believes that the launch of the XP point system 'may also' hint at a future token airdrop, but at least currently, the term 'token' has not appeared in any official information.
