Opensea releases OS2 platform while NFTs get momentum

The Non-Fungible Token (NFT) Marketplace Opensea has launched its new platform, OS2, ending its beta phase.

The company said the updated platform provides the entire token trade across 14 blockchains, including support for fungible tokens in Solana. It also introduces tools that aim to enhance crosschain function. These changes have signed a transition for the Opensea, its positioning as a broader platform beyond the NFTs.

Opensea Chief Marketing Officer Adam Holnder told Cointelegraph that the platform always believed in a broader idea that all onchain should be liquid and discovered somewhere.

“OS2 lets an NFT collector in Solana, change a gaming token with Ronin and buy a memecoin created just, all from a single purse flow,” Holnder said. “Users have juggling half a dozen dapps and bridges; we have been lying that experience.”

The Opensea Exec said that NFT tourists left while real users remained

Despite a broader cooling in the market, the Opensea sees the promise of signs of user maintenance and growth. Hollander told Cointelegraph that while volumes could decrease from 2021 to 2022 peak, weekly unique collectors in Openea were up to 40% since January. He added:

“We are told the tourists left behind, but real users remain, and they participate in more chains than before.”

Opensea’s data Aligned with a greater trend with NFT buyers. Unique NFT buyers rose to 936,000 in May, up to 50% from 622,000 of April. The moon also saw the first NFT monthly volume aptick in 2025 after undergoing a five-month decline.

Holnder told Cointelegraph that there is still “true power” in provable digital ownership. “When you prove that you own something onchain, the entire industry will open,” added Holnder, pointing toward real-world assets (RWW) getting steam.

From April 15–22, the NFTs at the RWA Marketplace Courtyard, a platform that uses NFTs tolockenize the physical card cards, reached a sales volume of $ 20.7 million. It allowed the Polygon to reach Ethereum in NFT weekly sales.

“The new tech is usually tested in a narrow way first and then emerging in stronger applications,” Holnder said.

NFT’s business profitability depends on the utility

Despite the decline from the climax, the NFT space can still earn for teams with the right approach, Holnder told Cointelegraph.

“The profitability is flowing to businesses that continue to increase real utility and options for users, which is why we remain home for NFTs and are now investing in ways such as Cross -Chain token Trading,” Holnder said.
