All-time statistics indicate that Opensea has seen 625,620 traders and $6.53 billion in volume. Axie Infinity and the Cryptopunks NFT collection fall behind Opensea\u2019s volume as Axie Infinity has seen $2.11 billion and Cryptopunks has gathered $1.31 billion.<\/p>\n<p>In recent times, Opensea has added Polygon (MATIC) support and toward the end of July, the leading marketplace announced a <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/nft-marketplace-opensea-raises-100-million-firm-becomes-a-blockchain-unicorn\/\">$100 million capital raise<\/a>. Opensea has continued to see <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/openseas-record-breaking-monthly-nft-volume-captures-more-than-1-5-billion\/\">record sales<\/a> but on September 15, the company announced that an employee was caught leveraging insider information to trade.<\/p>\n<p>The NFT market\u2019s management <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/opensea-nft-marketplace-claims-employee-profited-from-insider-information\/\">detailed<\/a> that Opensea team members \u201cmay not buy or sell from collections or creators\u201d while they are being promoted by Opensea. Furthermore, \u201cOpensea team members are prohibited from using confidential information to purchase or sell any NFTs, whether available on the Opensea platform or not,\u201d the team detailed last week.<\/p>\n<p><!-- growjs zone placement 31 -->    <!-- end of growjs zone placement --> <\/p>\n<h2>Opensea Says It Saw Significant Demand for a Mobile App, Leading NFT Marketplace Has a Great Deal of Competition<\/h2>\n<p>Two days later, Opensea announced the launch of the platform\u2019s mobile application which is available for iOS and Android operating systems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe calls for a mobile app have been growing, and we\u2019ve been hard at work bringing it to life,\u201d Opensea said on Friday. \u201cMaking NFTs more available to all is one of our core missions here at OpenSea, and we believe this is a big step in an exciting direction. NFTs in the palm of your hand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Opensea is not the only marketplace on the block and the leading market does have a lot of competition. While Opensea\u2019s volumes are massive, NFT markets like Rarible, Superrare, Makersplace, Foundation, Mintable, Atomicwallet, and more are selling NFTs regularly. Moreover, NFT markets on other blockchains like Avalanche, Solana, and Tezos are selling too.<\/p>\n<p>A few of these marketplaces have also had capital raises in 2021. Opensea\u2019s mobile application will likely expand the platform\u2019s reach and the company says it aims to improve the app over time.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What do you think about Opensea releasing a mobile application for its NFT marketplace?
