01
The problem
In 2021, Solana had almost nowhere to mint and trade NFTs.

SolSea
One of Solana's first NFT marketplaces. 2M+ users.
02
What I built
As a core engineer at ALL.ART I worked across the whole marketplace: the React front end, the FeathersJS backend, wallet connections, minting, licensing and fiat on-ramps through MoonPay.
03
The hard part
Scale. Collections dropped all at once, and the marketplace had to hold up through millions of transactions.
04
Where it is now
SolSea grew past two million users and more than 100,000 NFTs. In 2021 our team took 2nd place in the NFT track of the Solana Season Hackathon, and ALL.ART raised $4.5M in a round led by Delphi Ventures, with Solana Ventures.
