Step 1: Do your research

Before diving into the NFT market, it’s crucial to educate yourself about the fundamentals of this new digital asset. Gain an understanding of the technology behind NFTs, such as blockchain and smart contracts, and familiarize yourself with popular NFT platforms and marketplaces. Remember, knowledge is power.

Step 2: Choose the right marketplace

There are numerous NFT marketplaces available, each catering to different niches and communities. Some popular options include OpenSea, Blur, MagicEden, and Rarible. Evaluate the features, fees, and user experience of each platform to find the one that best suits your needs.

Step 3: Set up a digital wallet

In order to purchase NFTs, you’ll need a digital wallet compatible with the marketplace you’ve chosen. Most NFT platforms require an Ethereum-based wallet, such as MetaMask or Trust Wallet. Follow the wallet provider’s instructions to create an account and secure your private key.

Step 4: Fund your wallet with cryptocurrency

NFT transactions typically require payment in cryptocurrency, most commonly Ethereum (ETH). To fund your digital wallet, purchase cryptocurrency from a reputable exchange, and transfer it to your wallet’s address.

Step 5: Browse and evaluate NFTs

Once your wallet is set up and funded, you can begin browsing the NFT marketplace for assets that pique your interest. Pay close attention to the artist, rarity, and provenance of each NFT. It’s also essential to consider the long-term value and potential appreciation of the asset before making a purchase.

Step 6: Place a bid or buy outright

Depending on the marketplace, you can either bid on an NFT in an auction format or buy it outright at a fixed price. Ensure that you have sufficient funds in your wallet to cover the transaction and any associated fees.

Step 7: Secure your NFTs

After acquiring your NFT, it’s essential to store it securely. Most NFTs are automatically transferred to your digital wallet, but it’s crucial to back up your private key and ensure your wallet’s security settings are up-to-date.

In conclusion, entering the world of NFTs can be both exciting and rewarding. By following the steps outlined in this guide and staying informed about the latest developments in the NFT space, you’ll be well-equipped to make wise decisions and enjoy a successful foray into the fascinating realm of digital assets.

In this guide, we show you all the steps you need to take to create and sell your first NFT.

1 – Design your NFT 

Before moving on to the on-chain creation process of your NFT, you must first create the “artwork” that will represent it. This work can be a drawing, a photo, a video, a music, a 3D model, the choice is yours.

In case you want to create your own NFT, here are some applications and software that could be useful:

• Photoshop (drawing, photo editing, etc.)
• Photopea (free version of Photoshop)
• Canva (design, retouching, etc.)
• Blender (3D modeling, animation)

The main thing is to create a visual whose graphic style corresponds to you, and if possible which is different from most of the NFT that we are used to see.

2 – Create your NFT on the Opensea marketplace

After creating your artwork on the software of your choice, you then need to register it on the blockchain to make it an NFT.

For this, there are several options available to you. But for the sake of simplicity, we will create it on the Opensea marketplace which offers within its platform a system for creating NFTs.

As a reminder, Opensea is a platform that allows you to buy, sell and exchange NFTs from the most used blockchains of this ecosystem (Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, Avalanche, etc).

It is now considered to be the largest NFT marketplace in the world in terms of exchange volume, despite growing competition.

Once your NFT is created, you will be able to sell it directly on this marketplace.

3- Import and configure your artwork on Opensea

First of all, go to the “Opensea.io” marketplace, click on the small logo representing a wallet, and then select the wallet you want to connect with.

You will find the most popular digital wallets in this field, namely Metamask, Coinbase Wallet, Ledger (application), or Phantom to name a few.

Then, slide your cursor over your profile logo and click on the “Create” tab.

It is on this page that you will be able to fill in all the information related to your future NFT. Start by importing your artwork made beforehand by clicking on the “image” logo (or by dragging the file directly over it).

You now need to :

• Enter the name of your NFT
• Add a link (web page, etc) that will be visible on your NFT page
• Add a description
• Add it to an existing collection (optional)
• Fill in its properties (attributes) as well as other numerical characteristics (levels, statistics) if necessary
• Enter the supply (quantity)
• Select the blockchain where you want to register it

Once you have filled in all these data, simply click on “create” and validate the transaction on your wallet.

Congratulations, your NFT has been created, you can now find it on your profile in the “created” section.

4 – Sell your NFT on the Opensea marketplace

One of the advantages of Opensea is that you can list your newly created NFT for sale in just a few minutes.

To do this, go to the “created” or “collected” section of your profile (where your NFT is located), then simply click on “List for Sale“.

Then, click on “Fixed Price” to sell your NFT at a fixed price, or click on “Timed Aunction” to auction it.

If you choose the second option, you will have to choose to sell your NFT to the highest bidder (Sell to Highest bidder), or to sell it to the first buyer, but with a price that declines over time (Sell with declining price).

For the first option (Fixed Price), you just have to enter a fixed amount (in ETH or MATIC) that users will have to pay to buy your NFT. Finally, all you have to do is to enter the duration during which your NFT will be on sale, click on “Complete Listing“, then confirm the transaction on your wallet.

In other words, our NFC chips are used to certify the authenticity and uniqueness of your Fungible Apparel garments, whose ownership can thus be verified at any time via a simple scan. Indeed, these forgery-proof chips allow you to access a page where all the characteristics (identifier, attributes, rarity, etc.) of the NFT related to the garment you are wearing are listed.

By doing this, we make each of our garments unique products that cannot be copied or replaced by anyone who wants to make them their own.

But that’s not all, our benefits are not limited to the physical world. In fact, when you purchase a Fungible Apparel item, you also receive a non-transferable NFT. This digital asset, which is automatically sent to your wallet, gives you access to multiple benefits, such as access to a private discord, special offers and much more.

Eventually, you’ll also be able to use this non-transferable NFT directly to dress up your avatar in the metaverse, giving you the ability to explore hundreds of virtual worlds in your own Fungible Apparel.
