We.new is a new NFT platform to sell iconic moments as NFTs. This project is supported by several industry giants as well as digital artist Beeple. I think you know Beeple very well. He became the highest paid NFT artist after the sale of his NFT “Everydays: The First 5000 Days” which helped Beeple earn $69.3 million.

WENEW will host Ethereum-Powered NFTs that can be sold at auctions and direct sales. I have an account on opensea and rarible. As far as I know NFTs can be purchased using only cryptocurrency on opensea and rarible, but we.new allows buyers to buy NFTs with fiat money using credit card. No other mode of payments are currently available on the platform. They are working on it.
A buyer can purchase a NFT on WENEW platform at auctions or direct sales. Direct sales means fixed price of NFTs that can be purchased by fiat money using credit card. No other forms of payment is made for it. However, a buyer can purchase rare moment NFTs at an auction by paying ethereum via metamask or wire transfer. Before that You will need to have verified funds to make the bid on NFTs. To know how to verify your fund you visit the site we.new.
Few features of WENEW are very unique which make the site different from others. Once you make a bid at an auction, you can’t cancel it later. That will be your final bid. However you can increase your maximum bid amount by contacting the site. As far as I know you can cancel your bid amount at other NFT platforms. Like other NFT marketplaces, WENEW platform currently doesn’t feature resale of NFTs. It will be added to the marketplace later this year. There is a small eco fee that WENEW charge on each sale. I think seller will have to bear this fee. Apart from eco fee, I didn’t find any other charges mentioned on the site.
With NFTs buyers will also get Artifacts or Experiences or both. They will have to find out it on the moment’s sale or auction page. Not only that they will get opportunities to meet with artists and athletes.
After purchase, the NFT will not be displayed in your ethereum wallet even if you make payment via metamask. It will be displayed in your WENEW account. You will have to contact WENEW via email with your ethereum wallet address. Email Id is available on the site.
If you want to buy the iconic moments of tennis star Andy Murray, then prepare yourself to make the highest bid on the first auction which is going to be held on WENEW from July 2-5. You can participate in this auction to grab an opportunity to play a game of tennis with Andy Murray by making the highest bid. Not only that, you will also get two tickets to see the 2022 men’s Wimbledon finals. So, this is a good opportunity. You can try your luck.
