Cardano-NFT pioneer relaunches popular marketplace

London, England, United Kingdom - May 16, 2022

In July 2021, CNFT.IO launched as the first NFT or Cardano-NFT (CNFT) marketplace, replacing Discord-based Escrow Services. The Cardano community flocked to the new marketplace in droves, growing the platform enormously. 


Non-Fungible Tokens or NFTs first came to Cardano in March 2021 with Spacebudz and CardanoKidz leading the artistic charge. Unlike other chains, no Smart Contract is needed; the metadata and image credentials are baked into the Cardano Native Asset. There are still Policy IDs and IPFS links, but these remain a little different to many other NFTs. 


IOHK, the main development arm for the Cardano project, announced Smart Contract functionality in mid-September and by late autumn several other marketplaces had launched.  CNFT.IO added Smart Contracts in December 2021 but kept the traditional listing and purchase methods into early this year. 


Based on extensive user feedback, the pioneering marketplace has relaunched with new branding, user interface and additional features to meet community demand. 


Ryan, CEO of CNFT.IO, said: “We are extremely proud to present V3 of CNFT.IO - our biggest and most ambitious change to date. We originally launched the platform to rapturous applause just shy of a year ago, before Smart Contracts were even a thing on Cardano, and have gone on to build a community of more than 350,000 users and followers.


He continued: “For the past five months we’ve been busy behind-the-scenes building a brand new and improved marketplace – including a total rebuild of all Smart Contracts, front-end UI and back-end infrastructure. We’re excited to roll out a totally new CNFT.IO experience with some really impressive features that we know our users have been eagerly awaiting.”
