ETHEREUM vs POLYGON - Which Should You Choose for NFTs

[@NFTsSimplified]

Which will you choose for your NFT project: Polygon or Ethereum? What other NFT blockchains do you want me to make videos about?

[@CommunityCoins]

You're making big moves... keep doing what you are doing... talking about NFTs and you'll see exponential growth... no doubt in my mind.

[@drpflower75]

thankyou dear Aprilynne Alter,for 100k nfts of high value and high frequency which one you recommend,polygon or ethereum,please also enlighten on fee related to huge collection of 100k,is it one time or repeated 100k times,i need proper info on this,can you please provide,thankyou very much for your researches.

[@emeraldstream]

Excellent! How about Solsea, Solsea vs. Opensea, etc? Also, can you recommend your fave videos / or projects on Opensea-- that walk the buyer through the Madic etc process?

[@urxeose]

Make a video on the Foundation marketplace.

[@MikeThomas1111]

Can you transfer an NFT asset from Polygon to Ethereum in Opensea?

[@tfroemmgen]

You do a great job. Creating content is one thing. The info's out there. But presenting the content in a way that the audience enjoys listening is a different game. That's the part most content creators struggle with. You seem to be a spokesperson by nature. That makes it easy to follow and fun to listen. Keep up your good work!

[@NFTsSimplified]

Thank you so, so much Timo! I really appreciate the kind words :) they help me keep going

[@Jbacon21]

Selling my first NFT on OpenSea and you helped me feel much better about choosing Polygon. Thank you 😊 Cheers!

[@DISLEX]

How is it going? Updates?

[@YenseNFT]

Did it go on sale in Ethereum or PolYgOn?

[@fashiondesignsworld]

The buyer had a polygon Blockchain or Ethereum?

No one is buying using Polygon 🥲

if youre planning to go for a polygon project, lookup Digital Asshats

[@melekresmi1761]

if you catch one of the first 777 of the Digital Asshats collection, you will make huge profit in 2 or 3 years

[@exe.7113]

Always DYOR , but Digital Asshats is the most promising polygon project of 2022

[@lxmcjk]

after flipping many nfts and earning lots of profit, my safest bet for 2022 is Digital Asshats

[@charlesarnesworld]

What do you use polygon or Eht to sell your nfts

[@wealthbringer]

Congrats on the sponsorship Aprilynne! I love how clear and straightforward your tutorials are. Awesome work.

[@NFTsSimplified]

Thanks so much Aaron! I really appreciate it :)

[@milayovivich]

Have you seen the RMRK team`s project, such as KANARIA? There are NFT birds that can have other attached NFTs (for example - clothes, weapons, hats, glasses, etc). And these NFTs can be put on and taken off by a bird! They can also be sold separately!

[@josgonzalezart]

Congrats on the sponsorship! Also thanks for doing all the research on Polygon vs Ethereum, now its more clear! I think XD...? at least it's no longer just an option on OpenSea that I have no idea what it meant :)

[@NFTsSimplified]

Haha, thank you so much for watching! It was definitely hard researching this (so much information out there is incredibly technical), but I hope I was able to get the information across in simpler ways!

[@lisatom42]

I’d never heard of this before, thank you for the quick breakdown! Congrats on the sponsorship!

If you go for polygon, do some research on Digital Asshats on twitter and opensea. if you get one of the first 777 collection, you will be happy in a few years

Thanks for uploading this! Such a clean explanation. You are going to be a top NFT influencer for sure. Again, thanks!

[@NFTsSimplified]

Thank you so much for watching Gus! I really appreciate the kind words :)

[@djo6198]

You are very good at explaining complex ideas in a simple, concise way. Without rushing you get it done quickly, what a relief. I watch a lot of different tutorials and other videos based on research I'm doing and my inexhaustible patience is in fact starting to wane. There is so much wasted time with a barrage of unnecessary words, words, words... meaningless... words... I'm going to refer many other youtubers to you who can't seem to explain some of the simplest concepts. You must be a great listener. You've easily earned my sub. Bravo! Keep up the good work.

[@nendu4316]

@@NFTsSimplified to interject, i would like to see you, deep dive, into the other nft art spaces other than opensea. another idea might be doing a video on promotion on Twitter and discord communities. Maybe videos on getting commissioned by nft traders as an artist or something, i see people do that sometimes.

For Polygon you can use a Credit/debit card to buy it & the charge is $3.99 flat every time . No need to bridge (:

Could an NFT collection be minted on Polygon for free and then bridged to the Ethereum network for a much lower total fee than minting directly on Ethereum?

[@saudai0n29]

Very extraordinary language you have but good formative

[@elira9327]

Hey, l am going to launch my polygon based nft collection on opensea. When l'll sell an nft then l saw my matamask comes in and l need to do a transaction. So....here am l need to pay that transaction on polygon?

[@kygo]

Great video, exactly what I was looking for :) 1 question... the example project you gave at the end, the price is still in ETH instead of Matic, is that normal? Is it possible to mint an NFT with Eth on the polygon network?

[@NFTsSimplified]

Hey, thanks so much for watching! The price for Zoniaverse is in "Polygon ETH", not "Ethereum ETH". NFTs are not traded with Matic on OpenSea. To go from Polygon ETH to Ethereum ETH and vice versa, you need to bridge the ETH! You can tell the difference from the color on OpenSea. Polygon ETH is purple, while Ethereum ETH is grey!

[@kygo]

@@NFTsSimplified thank you!

[@goldenbrowngod]

Ok there are no gas fees on polygon but does one still have to pay the initialization fee when using polygon or is that waved as well? and thanks your videos are very informative.

[@NFTsSimplified]

There is no initialization fee on Polygon!

@@NFTsSimplified whaaa? I've actually been trying to look up what the initialization fee was on opensea for both eth and polygon and it wasn't clear on the site. Thanks for making this all so much clearer.

[@carolyn1191]

Omg I have been Googling for over an hour looking for the answer to this!

[@goldenbrowngod]

@@carolyn1191 I'm still surprised this info is so hard to come by. You'd think it would be mentioned more often.

[@scarletred1516]

Hello! Genuinely appreciate your videos💜 I had a few queries: 1. You mentioned (etherum) gas fees when you initialized your account was 60 gwei which is $0.0002? Also when I looked at transactions of other sellers in the past 4mnths I have never came across any high gas fees..they were like 30 to 60 gwei. Am I missing out something? 2. If my nft (polygon) doesn't sell do I have to pay any fees to unlist it or sth? I believe since it's on a fixed price and there's no duration it will never expire and relisting (if required) won't have any fees? 3. To bridge poly to etherum, the gas fee that needs to be paid, can I pay it with the polygon etherum I have or does it have to be in cash? (If anyone else has any answers/knowledge regarding my questions, please feel free to enlighten me😊)

[@DiandraStarShine]

gwei is normally expressed in ETH, not dollar$ or other fiat currencies..but that is odd because 60 gwei today - about a month after you made the comment I'm replying to - is 0.000153 US dollars...which doesn't make sense as a gas fee incurred for using ETH..hopefully someday🤞but currently, afaik, it's a heck of a lot more expensive than that..which is why so many people are minting on Polygon right now.
