NFT Marketplace Extension

Complete Installation & Setup Guide

🎯 What is the NFT Marketplace Extension?

The NFT Marketplace extension transforms your v5 platform into a comprehensive multi-chain NFT marketplace. Users can create collections, mint NFTs, list them for sale (fixed price or auction), make offers, and trade digital assets across multiple blockchains including Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, Arbitrum, and Optimism.

Built on industry-standard ERC-721 smart contracts with IPFS metadata storage, the marketplace supports creator royalties, KYC integration, auction mechanics with anti-sniping protection, and real-time activity feeds. Administrators have full control over marketplace configuration, content moderation, creator verification, and multi-chain contract deployment.

The system integrates seamlessly with the Ecosystem extension for blockchain connectivity and supports both custodial and non-custodial wallet workflows.
