GM! We’re excited to announce that the public beta of Forest NFT marketplace is now live! This marks the first step in our journey to empower creators to bring their works on-chain and to encourage collectors to explore, discover and securely trade NFTs.

What is Forest?

Forest is the first non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace on aelf blockchain, providing users with the ability to create, trade and explore digital collectibles.

With its user-friendly login process, minimal minting fees, and high-speed transactions, Forest fosters an inviting environment, especially for non-crypto-native users, when it comes to NFTs creation and trading.

Key Features

With the aim of creating a seamless and enjoyable experience for all users, here are some features you can expect from Forest:

  • Effortless Login. Forest simplifies the onboarding process by offering an easy account sign-up and login powered by the Portkey AA wallet SDK. Users can effortlessly log in using their web2 credentials, such as email, phone number, Google account, or Apple ID, with just a few clicks.
  • Easy NFT Creation: Unleash your creativity and breathe life into your digital assets with Forest’s user-friendly NFT minting tools, which makes the creation process accessible to everyone.
  • Easy NFT Trading. Forest’s clean and intuitive UI makes it easy for anyone to get started. Buying and selling NFTs is made simple and straightforward. Explore the vast world of NFTs through the Explore feed, and find inspiration from the NFTs you love.
  • Super-low Gas Fee. Transactions within Forest enjoy a remarkably low gas fees, approximately $0.002 per transaction. This made possible thanks to L1 network aelf, demonstrating aelf’s commitment to accelerating the mass adoption of web3.

Open Beta Launch

Starting today, anyone can check out the first version of Forest NFT marketplace at eforest.finance, and be able to explore, buy and sell NFTs on it.

Getting started with Forest is quick and easy. Here’s how:

  • Visit eforest.finance to begin.
  • If you don’t possess a Portkey Wallet to connect with Forest, you can conveniently register a new Forest account on the login page using your Web2 social info.

What’s next for Forest

We’re just getting started and can’t wait to explore new ways to bring people together around NFTs and the creators behind them. With this Open Beta phase, we’re partnering with the Web3 game BeanGo Town to streamline the acquisition of its exclusive Halloween edition BeanPass NFT.

We’re building a place that’s for more than just buying and selling. We want Forest to be a place that empowers creators and collectors to build and engage their communities. And we’ll continue to listen, learn, and build based on all kinds of feedback from our users.

Let’s expect Forest to be at the forefront of this exciting space. Stay tuned, tell us what you think, and follow us on Twitter for the latest updates.
