Interview

NFTX – A liquidity protocol for NFTs

Article hero image

In this interview with Quag, we break down NFTX's operating model and learn about the drivers behind the data you see on Token Terminal's charts. We discuss NFT liquidity, different staking options, the current fee model, creator royalties, launching on Arbitrum, Pudgy Penguins, the NFTX token, etc. Tune in for the latest on NFTX and the plans for its future.

A novel use case not mentioned in the interview but worth noting is that NFTX provides users the ability to DCA or “save up” for an NFT and earn interest while doing it by staking the vault token. We'll speak about this in more detail with Quag in a future episode.
