OpenSea, the longstanding and leading Ethereum NFT marketplace, is now offering Solana token trading to some of its closed beta users after announcing that its long-awaited SEA token is on the way.
As part of its ongoing effort to reshape the platform, OpenSea aims to roll out access to more wallets in the coming weeks. It will also reintegrate support for Solana NFTs soon, after removing them in 2022.
OS2 open beta is now live:

The New OS2 Platform From OpenSea Will Allow Users To Begin Farming For The Upcoming SEA Token Airdrop
Via its new ‘OS2′ platform, OpenSea lets some of its closed beta users trade Solana tokens, including the popular meme coins Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) and Dogwifhat (WIF).
While Solana token trading is only currently live on OS2 for a small group of closed beta users, OpenSea has announced it will be rolling out to more in the next few weeks.
“This is a big milestone in our multi-chain journey. Solana has some of the most passionate users and builders in web3,” the official OpenSea account posted on X before adding, “Coins first, NFTs coming later. Most tradable now, more in a few weeks.”
The Solana support comes just two months after OpenSea CEO Devin Finzer announced the NFT marketplaces’ revitalization plans as part of its OS2 platform launch.
Users of the OS2 platform will accrue points by buying and selling on the platform, among other things. Eventually, those points will convert into OpenSea’s upcoming SEA token.
Aside from airdrop farming on the new OS2 platform, there are strong rumors that longstanding users of the OpenSea platform will also be rewarded in the upcoming SEA airdrop. It would be a bad look if loyal users who have a lot of history using OpenSea weren’t included in the token allocation.
ngl people are really under farming the $SEA airdrop

OpenSea To Re-Add Solana NFT Support After Receiving The All-Clear From Its SEC Investigation
OpenSea previously added Solana NFT support in early 2022 after it became a huge market. However, it gained little traction as rival Magic Eden quickly became the go-to marketplace for Solana NFTs.
As part of the firm’s overhaul, OpenSea has submitted a letter to the SEC requesting clarity about NFT marketplace rules on behalf of all Web3 and NFT platforms.
It has also urged new Commissioner Hester Peirce (aka Crypto Mom), who leads the new SEC crypto task force, to affirm that NFT marketplaces should not be held to broker-dealer and exchange rules.
We're committed to advocating for clear, sensible regulations for NFTs and crypto, and proud to represent the community.

The leading NFT marketplace has a history with the US regulator. In August 2024, OpenSea received a Wells notice from the Commission, which typically alerts firms and individuals of potential enforcement actions against them.
However, in February 2025, Finzer announced that the SEC investigation had ended. This news followed many other probes and cases involving other major crypto companies.
Since Donald Trump became President in January, his administration has shifted to a more crypto-friendly agenda, closing cases against RobinHood, Coinbase, and Kraken.
Now, with the SEC’s go-ahead, OpenSea is pushing ahead with its OS2 platform and eventual SEA token airdrop for its community.

With Solana’s integration with OpenSea, the network will be under further strain due to the extra token and NFT trading taking place. An L2 for Solana couldn’t have arrived at a better time, which is why Solaxy (SOLX) has had incredible success in its presale thus far, raising over $30 million.
Solana has faced persistent network congestion issues that have limited its ability to steal the number one blockchain spot from Ethereum. Solana struggles with failed transactions and even complete network outages at peak times.
Solaxy aims to help by implementing several key solutions. Processing transactions off-chain will reduce the strain on Solana’s network. Also, SOLX utilizes rollups to bundle transactions for improved cost-efficiency and maintain Solana’s strong security framework.
This is a much-needed addition for the number two L1 chain, especially as the crypto market starts to heat back up and volume trickles into the major blockchains like Solana.
