Where can I find NFT sales?

You can find NFT sales on popular marketplaces like OpenSea, Rarible, Foundation, SuperRare, and Nifty Gateway. These platforms host both live auctions and fixed-price NFT sales, where you can explore collections and purchase items directly.

How can I stay safe and protect my NFTs?

To protect your NFTs, use reputable wallets like MetaMask, enable 2FA for security, and avoid suspicious links or phishing attempts. Always verify the seller’s authenticity before purchasing an NFT. For long-term storage, consider using a cold wallet for added security.

Keeping your NFTs secure is essential in the digital asset space. While blockchain technology offers robust security, user-side vulnerabilities are still common. Follow these guidelines to ensure your NFTs remain protected: First and foremost, always use a reliable and secure crypto wallet—preferably a hardware wallet like Ledger or Trezor. These wallets store your private keys offline, making it virtually impossible for hackers to access your assets remotely. Avoid keeping valuable NFTs in hot wallets connected to the internet for extended periods. Be extremely cautious with phishing attacks. Hackers often create fake websites or send emails and direct messages that appear to be from trusted platforms. Always double-check URLs and avoid clicking on suspicious links. Beluga.cafe will never ask for your private keys or seed phrases—never share them with anyone. Use strong, unique passwords for your NFT platforms, and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) wherever possible. This adds an extra layer of security in case your login credentials are compromised. Also, make sure your devices and browsers are updated with the latest security patches. Stay informed about smart contract permissions. Some malicious contracts can give scammers control over your NFTs if you sign them unknowingly. Always review what you're approving when interacting with decentralized apps (dApps) or marketplaces. Avoid downloading NFT files or artwork directly from unknown sources. Malicious files can contain malware or trigger access to your wallet. When browsing the NFT world, especially when purchasing or minting, stick to verified collections and well-known creators.
