As initially promoted at the onset of the NFT boom, one of the significant advantages of this technology was that artists received a small resale royalty fee for each secondary sale. However, <strong>this will no longer be the case on OpenSea<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Starting from March 2024, artists who publish their collections on OpenSea <strong>will no longer be able to demand any type of commission or royalties for each resale<\/strong>. These fees will essentially become tips. When making a purchase, sellers will have the option to give the original artist a small percentage of the sale price, but always on an optional basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The decline in NFT trading has prompted major marketplaces to seek other incentives that can attract both buyers and sellers. <strong>Blur<\/strong>, the platform that has overtaken OpenSea and positioned itself as the current <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/another-big-failure-meta-puts-an-end-functions-nft\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">largest NFT market<\/a>, applies a modest 0.5% fee on payments. This came into conflict with the intended fees, which could range from <strong>2.5% to 10%<\/strong> in many cases.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Here\u2019s how this plays out after Aug 31:<br>&#8211; New collections: creator fees optional<br>&#8211; Existing collections using our Operator Filter: we\u2019ll enforce preferred creator fees on OpenSea through Feb 29 \u201824; optional after<br>&#8211; Existing collections not using our Operator Filter: no change<\/p>&mdash; OpenSea (@opensea) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/opensea\/status\/1692224336722350429?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 17, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For the time being, OpenSea will continue applying creator fees to certain existing collections. However, starting from <strong>August 31, 2023<\/strong>, OpenSea will cease imposing these commissions on new NFTs being listed for sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon the announcement of this news, many users have expressed their complaints through X, stating that these new measures will primarily disadvantage <strong>small artists<\/strong>. Due to these measures, they will no longer receive financial compensation from each resale of their works. On the other hand, OpenSea defends itself and argues that this is the<strong> &#8216;natural evolution of the market.&#8217;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Some of the links added in the article are part of affiliate campaigns and may represent benefits for Softonic.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpenSea ends mandatory fees for creators.
