OpenSea CEO Devin Finzer says the platform isn’t abandoning NFTs but expanding into a universal onchain trading hub.
OpenSea CEO Devin Finzer has rejected claims that the company is pivoting away from non-fungible tokens (NFTs), saying instead that the marketplace is “evolving” into a universal platform to trade every type of onchain asset.
In a Friday post on X, Finzer announced that OpenSea’s October trading volume exceeded $2.6 billion, with over 90% of that amount coming from token trading, calling it the beginning of the platform’s transformation to “trade everything.”
“We’re building the universal interface for the entire onchain economy — tokens, collectibles, culture, digital and physical,” Finzer told Cointelegraph. “The goal is simple: if it exists onchain, you should be able to trade it on OpenSea, seamlessly across any chain, while maintaining complete control of your assets,” he added.
