In Brief:
- Solana NFTs may come to the leading NFT marketplace OpenSea according to leaked screenshots.
- The ScreenShots also indicate the integration of Phantom wallet.
Although the leading NFT marketplace OpenSea is now focused on Ethereum, newly-leaked screenshots hint that support for the burgeoning Solana NFT ecosystem and Phantom wallet is on the way.
Solana rose more than 4% to $93.67 in the 24 hours preceding up to Tuesday night, as rumours circulated that nonfungible token marketplace OpenSea was working on adding the cryptocurrency.
The screenshots were taken by Jane Manchun Wong, a well-known writer, and hacker who is recognised for discovering new tech features from companies like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram before they’re formally revealed.
Wong’s images, which he released on Twitter today, show OpenSea supporting the popular Solana wallet, Phantom, as well as listing Solana as a supported blockchain alongside Ethereum, Polygon, and Klaytn.
When contacted for a response, an OpenSea spokesman dismissed it as “old speculation,” pointing to a previously purportedly leaked picture of the site showing Solana support. OpenSea would “comment if or when we have something to say,” according to the spokesman.
Hackers acquired NFTs at dramatically discounted prices after an OpenSea bug exposed the marketplace susceptible just yesterday. Hackers swiftly sold the NFTs after completing a purchase, netting a profit of at least $1 million
