We at Wombat are all about gaming — but even we have to admit that the world of NFT collectibles cannot be ignored. Growing at a rapid speed, this blossoming space is rich with formats, narratives and mindblowing styles hunted by collectors. But it’s not some sort of an exclusive club — and you can freely try your hand at both. In this guide, we give you an overview of Ethereum-powered NFT projects available to you via Wombat.
Avastars
Putting you in the position of a Teleport Engineer, this gamefied art collection offers you to choose the citizen of Planet Avastar. All candidates are represented by stylish portraits generated from various combinations of traits, attributes and rarities.
The citizens you choose become, essentially, art pieces in your assemblage. As the Prime edition has been sold out, new Replicants can be created by combining Primes’ traits.
Grab a Prime on OpenSea, as the Replicants facility is nearing launch!
Axie Marketplace
The legendary battle pets can now be adopted through Wombat! Gather your first Axie party — or add more impressive fighters to your collection. And that’s not all — you can also get lands (individually or in bundles) and tons of cool in-game items!
P.S. In addition to Wombat, you will need a Ronin wallet (specifically created for Axie Infinity) to link your Ethereum address. Tap on the login button on the Marketplace and the platform will take you through the process.
CryptoPunks
Often referred to as the OG NFT platform, CryptoPunks is a collection of unique pixel-art portraits. Similar to Avastars, every portrait was generated with unique features and changing backgrounds. The backgroun reflects a Punk’s status: not on sale (blue), on sale (red) and has an active bid (purple).
All CryptoPunks are available at OpenSea.
The Foundation
The Foundation operates as an intermediary between creators and collectors. Artists can upload and sell their works while collectors get a neatly packaged and shareable collection view. The platform is also very social and facilitates real connections in the digital art world through contacts, profile verification and many other features.
You can connect your wallet right from the home page.
Hashmasks
In a sense of uniqueness, Hashmasks are much alike CryptoPunks or Avastars. A team of 70 artists has created variants of five traits, which are then mixed up in all kinds of combinations with a distinct style. One thing that changes the whole collector experience is that you get to co-create the piece by naming it upon purchase. This is something that hasn’t been done in NFT art before Hashmasks.
Once you own a Hashmask, it’ll start mining the NCT token that you can then spend on a unique name for your art piece. To claim NCT, connect Wombat on the Wallet page.
KnownOrigin
KnownOrigin is an art marketplace that focuses on singular pieces rather than series and collections. With a large variety of artists and auctions, this is a go-to platform for collectors looking to diversify their holdings.
You can connect your wallet directly from the home page.
OpenSea
OpenSea is a universal marketplace for all kinds of Ethereum-based NFTs — kind of like Atomic for EOS and WAX! You can browser through all kinds of collections and individual pieces across multiple blockchains. And you can also monitor the NFT market from Stats to help you plan your purchases, holdings and sales.
You can connect a wallet directly from the home page.
Rarible
Rarible is arguably the most diverse NFT marketplace with a massive supply of video and animated artworks. Standing by its name, Rarible features some odd pieces (like Steve Job’s job application) to encapsulated moments of life and most exquisite digital art. And you can also take part in the platform’s governance through RARI token — which you can get as a Rarible NFT holder.
You can connect Wombat directly from the home page.
SuperRare
SuperRare prides itself in a vigorous vetting process to guarantee access only to the works from top digital artists. Combined with the supporting content and exhibitions, SuperRare gives art collectors a curated gallery experience within the NFT space.
SuperRare requires users to create their own internal accounts in addition to the wallet. You can complete the registration right from the home page.
Wrapping it up
The world of NFT art already has its classics and hidden gems. We are now witnessing a highly competitive marketplace environment that, akin to streaming services, are fighting for their exclusives — or for the right to offer the most renowned collections. For both collectors and artists, this situation couldn’t be more encouraging. With the freedom of choice and developing niches, exchanging art has never been easier — and we strongly encourage you to explore this space. But if you’re still on the gaming side, be sure to check out our Ethereum games guide!
