Channel: Petko Aleksandrov
[0]
In today's video, I will show you how聽to create and sell NFTs without Gas聽聽
[5]
fees and if you already have experience聽with any of the NFT platforms like OpenSea聽聽
[11]
you will know that we have to pay Gas fees and聽those could be really expensive at the moment聽聽
[18]
and sometimes, the Gas fees exceed the price聽which we would receive for the NFT, so if you want聽聽
[26]
to sell your pieces of art without Gas fees, you will need to know how to sell NFTs on Polygon.
[40]
Welcome to the Trading Channel, it's Petko
Aleksandrov. A very warm welcome to the video聽聽
[45]
and before I show you how to create and sell NFTs without Gas fees make sure to subscribe to聽聽
[49]
our channel and press the notification bell so you will be notified whenever we upload聽聽
[55]
new videos on our channel. So to make it clear, Opensea, which is one of the biggest NFT platforms,聽聽
[63]
supports three (3) different Blockchains by the time聽
I'm recording this video. So we have the Ethereum聽聽
[69]
Blockchain, we have the Polygon which I'll be聽talking about today and we have the Klotyn. So聽聽
[75]
on Polygon, we can create and sell NFTs without聽
G as fees and in this video, I will teach you how聽聽
[83]
to do that. Let's get straight to the point. So the聽first thing is to go to My Collections and I'll be聽聽
[90]
creating a new collection, so I will quickly create聽a collection and for the purpose of this video,聽
[97]
I'll be using some of the pictures that I'm using聽for thumbnails on my YouTube videos, so from time聽聽
[104]
to time, I go to a photographer and she takes聽like hundreds of pictures of me so after that,聽聽
[112]
my team uses them to create a YouTube thumbnails,聽
but now, for the purpose of the video, I will just聽聽
[118]
pick randomly a few of them to build the聽Collection, I will put the logo just myself聽聽
[125]
and then I will drop another image as a featured聽
image but of course, if you are an NFT creator and聽聽
[132]
you are building your Collections, so you want聽to make sales out of it, you need to choose your聽聽
[139]
logo, your featured image very carefully so it聽will be attractive, okay, and then banner image,聽聽
[145]
it could be a different one, but again I will pick any of the pictures that I have over here.聽聽
[151]
It doesn't really fit very well, so make sure to聽look at the recommended size and a quick tip over聽聽
[158]
here if you don't know how to do that, you can use Canva.com and you can create a custom size聽聽
[164]
pictures. I can make it to 1400 to 400, create new聽
design and then I will just upload the picture聽聽
[172]
that I want, here we go, it was that one and then I can simply fit it into the size they want, okay, so聽聽
[183]
here it is, I can increase it. You really don't need photoshop skills nowadays. I can't, I really don't聽聽
[190]
like myself on that picture but i just wanted to聽
show you one of the easiest ways that you can pick聽聽
[197]
a Banner and make it the size they recommend, okay.聽
So, Canva.com is a great solution. Now, going through,聽聽
[206]
I will just say, Petko Aleksandrov Pics, okay, and then聽
you have the URL, so you can customize your URL on聽聽
[216]
Opensea, so again, I can say, Petko Aleksandrov Pics,
so, this is the collection I'm building right now聽聽
[224]
and you can drop here any description that you聽wish, for example, I will drop YouTube thumbnails,聽聽
[232]
okay, because this is what I decided to use for the聽
purpose of this video and then you can choose a聽聽
[238]
category, what is it? Is it an art? Is it a trading聽 card? collectible, sports? Utility? So, I will just聽聽
[245]
click on Art, even it's not. But keep in mind that聽you can select only one category and then you聽聽
[251]
have links, you can drop links to your website, for聽
example, I will drop links to our website then you聽聽
[259]
have discord twitter and so on i'm not going to聽
drop any links right now to make the video any聽聽
[264]
longer and then you have royalties so this is very聽
important now when you create NFTs you can select聽聽
[272]
what a percentage to get as rewards when a user聽
resells an item that you originally created so you聽聽
[281]
can say 5% or you can request more and聽
uh say 10% and then you have to put your聽聽
[289]
address where you will be getting the payout and聽
this should be ethereum address you can use any聽聽
[297]
address but I will just use the one that I have on聽
Metamask and this is the wallet that i'm usually聽聽
[304]
using for the nfts so here is the address i聽
will just copy it and i will drop it in here聽聽
[311]
and then here comes the trick so you will聽
be able to create and sell NFTs without聽聽
[317]
gas fees instead of the Ethereum Blockchain聽
you will have to switch to polygon so聽聽
[324]
polygon one more time is a separate Blockchain聽
from the Ethereum and it comes as a solution聽聽
[330]
for the high fees on the Ethereum blockchain聽
so below you can add USDC and DAi as an option聽聽
[340]
for the people to buy and sell your items and聽
it is free so i would suggest you to add those聽聽
[347]
so basically when you sell the NFTs on Polygon聽
you give more options to the buyers to pay聽聽
[354]
in DAi or USDC and for the beginners these聽
are stable coins so they always equal to聽聽
[360]
$1 and then you can decide if聽
you want to have a padded outlook contained or聽聽
[367]
covered it depends on the items that you will聽
have all right so the padded as recommended for聽聽
[373]
assets that are with transparent backgrounds聽
if your assets are not with one-on-one ratio聽聽
[379]
and covered are the assets where your items can聽
extend to the edge so i'll stick to contained聽聽
[386]
and then I will just click on create, so here we聽
go my collection was just created that's awful I聽聽
[393]
will have to change it but you see that I have my聽
collection with Petko Aleksandrov Pics and I would聽聽
[401]
have changed it if this was a real collection聽
for selling purposes but it's not it's just for聽聽
[406]
demonstrational purposes of this video so now I 聽
have the Petko Aleksandrov Pics collection where I聽聽
[414]
can add the items on the right hand up corner you聽
can see Add item and here you can create your NFTs聽聽
[423]
on Polygon without any Gas fees so I will聽
show you that. So I will keep uploading those聽聽
[430]
pictures of mine that I have and I will name for聽
example that NFT Petko Thinking I don't know what聽聽
[438]
I'm doing but I'm thinking then I have an external聽
link it could be a game to the website where you聽聽
[446]
store your art or where you will be selling your聽
NFTs whatever you have but I would always suggest聽聽
[452]
you guys to have a website if you're serious聽
about it if you want to do this in the long term聽聽
[458]
it's just more trustworthy if you have a website聽
and it's not really difficult to build a website聽聽
[463]
nowadays even if you don't have any skills聽
about it there are so many ready solutions,聽聽
[468]
then here is the description make sure to provide聽
a detailed description okay so the people will聽聽
[475]
know what actually they are buying and then here聽
we have a few options very similar like when you聽聽
[481]
are creating an NFT for the Ethereum Blockchain聽
and I will go quickly through all the options that聽聽
[489]
OpenSea offers us so it really depends what聽
your piece of art is and you can just add聽聽
[497]
more properties I can say that I'm a trader and聽
I do that full-time just whatever you like, okay.聽聽
[503]
Usually the properties are used in the gaming NFT聽
industry so they describe the items like if this聽聽
[511]
is Formula one car, how fast it is or any different聽
specifications of your art and then you can put聽聽
[518]
any levels for example how fast that car is right聽
and you can change the values as well so it could聽聽
[525]
be from 1 to 5 for example how good trader I聽
am 1 of 5, I can say that I'm 5 out of 5 right聽聽
[535]
if I want to show off a little bit right here聽
and then we can have any stats, again you can come聽聽
[541]
up with anything you wish and if I stick to the聽
example that I started with I can go with how many聽聽
[548]
winning trades I have, I can choose 4 out of聽
5 and click on save and you see that it comes聽聽
[555]
as an information below, now something interesting聽
here we can add unlockable content which I already聽聽
[561]
explained in a previous video about creating NFTs聽
on the Ethereum Blockchain so same thing here you聽聽
[566]
can include anything with your NFT so when someone聽
buys your piece of art you can give them something聽聽
[572]
more you can give them a code, a coupon I聽
can add coupons for my courses for example,聽聽
[578]
if you are selling an art piece for example聽
painting you can actually drop an information聽聽
[584]
and send them the original painting which would聽
be outstanding right so if you draw a painting聽聽
[590]
you can make a picture of it sell it as an NFT and聽
then drop an information how they can contact you聽聽
[597]
and you can send them the actual painting, if you聽
sell it for a few Ehereums, I think it might be聽聽
[603]
worth it for you to try this out. So one more thing聽
here you can just drop any link for example聽聽
[609]
I can drop a link to my Cryptocurrency trading聽
course for example just anything you can drop聽聽
[617]
here as unlockable content so when they buy聽
it they will unlock this content and see it聽聽
[624]
okay, then we have the number of copies that can be聽
mined and there is no Gas cost to you okay you can聽聽
[632]
sell NFTs on Polygon without Gas and you can sell聽
as many as you wish so instead of one I can create聽聽
[640]
10 for example which means that this NFT that i聽
created this picture of mine where I'm thinking聽聽
[648]
will be available for many people to buy or it聽
could be owned by many wallets okay and you see聽聽
[655]
that if I click on the help section it says that聽
this makes your item ownable by multiple wallets,聽聽
[662]
exactly what i just said and then you have the聽
option to freeze your Metadata but first you need聽聽
[669]
to create if you want to freeze it I don't want聽
to freeze it right now I just want to demonstrate聽聽
[673]
how you can create and sell NFTs without Gas聽
fees on the Polygon Blockchain and you will see聽聽
[682]
whoa, you just created Petko Thinking okay and i聽
can share it I can share it straight away to my聽聽
[690]
Facebook for example and it will be really聽
strange for my followers on Facebook to see聽聽
[698]
that I'm listing my picture as an NFT but for聽
the purpose of this video I just want to show聽聽
[703]
you all the steps so you can share your NFT, so I聽
will just write down what, wants to buy my first聽聽
[713]
NFT where I am thinking okay and then I will just聽
post it on Facebook and there it is okay I will聽聽
[724]
delete it right after the video so I will close it聽
now but here it is, I just created the NFT and now聽聽
[733]
I will sell it, so click on sell and here I can set聽
the price it's absolutely your personal choice on聽聽
[743]
what price you want to sell your pieces of art, it聽
is your work so you decide on how much you want聽聽
[751]
to get for dollars and you see that I have 10聽
available and I can decide to sell only 1 or I聽聽
[757]
can decide to sell 5 of them and keep the rest聽5
for myself or maybe sell them later, it's up聽聽
[765]
to you, I can ask with Ethereum, DAi or in USDC so聽
I can sell them for example for $10 each聽聽
[772]
or for 100 but let's stick to $10聽
and you wanna sell just one piece I will click聽聽
[778]
on Complete listing, will ask you to unlock this聽
currency but this will be only one time the first聽聽
[785]
time you are unlocking any of the stable coins,聽
if I ask 1 Ethereum this would be approximately聽聽
[792]
3779 because this is where Ethereum sits at聽
the time I'm recording this video but below聽聽
[800]
you have fees, now guys these are not Gas fees聽
this is the fees for the OpenSea platform of 2.5%,聽聽
[809]
simply this is what this marketplace benefits from聽
okay, they don't benefit from the Gas fees on the聽聽
[817]
Ethereum Blockchain, they benefit from this 2.5% fee,聽
then we have the Creator royalty which I set at 10%聽聽
[827]
and if I sell all of the 5 pieces you聽
can see that I would finally have about聽聽
[835]
4.375 Ethereum, approximately聽
$16000 and if I sell all of them聽聽
[843]
okay, at the price of one Ethereum without the fees聽
I would get about $33000聽
[849]
and one more time this is just for demonstrational聽
purposes okay, and then I can complete the listing聽聽
[856]
and then I have the sign message so I need to sign聽
into my Metamask and all I have to do is just聽聽
[864]
sign okay, I don't need to pay any聽
Gas fees guys so I will just sign it.聽聽
[871]
Actually, if I translate it in English you will聽
see that it says signature and here we go, what聽聽
[878]
you've listed Petko Thinking your NFT is listed聽
already and if I close it and I go back to OpenSea聽聽
[887]
and the Search tab I can drop Petko, I don't think聽
there will be any other NFT oh actually there is聽聽
[894]
one kitty called Petko, this is really surprising聽
but I think it is Petkor right so I will click on聽聽
[901]
my NFT and here it is and actually let me open聽
it in a new incognito window so we'll see how聽聽
[909]
it looks like if i'm just uh visiting the website聽
so you see that it is owned by me Petko Aleksandrov,聽聽
[916]
it includes unlockable content, the current price聽
is 1 Ethereum and below I have the option to buy,聽聽
[924]
make an offer, buy with the card and so on okay. So聽
here are the properties that we entered, the Stats聽聽
[931]
the levels, about Petko Aleksandrov Pics, so what聽
I want to show you guys at the end of this video聽聽
[937]
because I don't want to make it any longer if I go聽
back to my collections here is the collection and聽聽
[944]
if I click on it you will see that I can add more聽
items and list more NFTs again on the Blockchain聽聽
[953]
you can create and sell NFTs without聽
Gas fees on the Polygon Blockchain.聽聽
[960]
And more and more people prefer that option聽
nowadays because of the high Gas fees that we聽聽
[969]
still pay on the Ethereum Blockchain. Alright聽
guys so now I'll have to go to Facebook and delete聽聽
[975]
the NFT that I shared oh actually 4 likes聽
and 1 share probably somebody's about to buy聽聽
[982]
that NFT for 1 Ethereum I'm joking nobody will聽
buy that for one Ethereum. Thank you guys for聽聽
