OpenSea lansează un instrument în lanț pentru a impune redevențele NFT
NFT marketplace OpenSea has launched a tool that enforces NFT royalties, which applies to new NFT collections. Devin Finzer, CEO of OpenSea, noted that the new tool will let creators have on-chain enforcement of royalties. The tool is a code snippet that lets creators enforce royalties on new and future smart contracts for NFT collections.
In addition, the tool also allows creators to restrict the sales of their NFT collections to marketplaces that support and enforce creator fees. However, while OpenSea said that it will support collections with an on-chain enforcement tool, it wouldn’t force new collections that don’t opt in.

While NFTs were originally included in the city’s metaverse economy development plan, a new version of the plan has deleted a line about NFTs. Despite this, the city still aims to nurture more than 200 metaverse companies and build at least two metaverse worlds by 2025.
