Odaily reported that OpenSea has announced its OpenSea Mobile app is now available for early access to Doodles NFT holders. Users can download and use the app after completing Doodles identity verification.

Odaily reports that OpenSea has announced the launch of the Ethereum open standard ERC-8257 (Agent Tool Registry), positioning it as the "app store for AI agent tools."According to the announcement, developers can use this standard to register tools on-chain, declare access rules and pricing, while also enabling AI agents to autonomously discover, purchase access rights, and invoke relevant tools without human intervention.OpenSea stated that ERC-8257 can be composable with other protocols such as ERC-8004 (Agent Identity), MCP (Tool Discovery), and x402 (Payment Protocol), collectively forming the infrastructure for AI agent on-chain operations. ERC-8257 is currently in the draft stage, and OpenSea has invited developers to participate in further refining the specification.

Odaily reports that Adam Hollander, Chief Marketing Officer of OpenSea, stated that the next cycle of NFTs could look very different from the speculative frenzy of 2022, which saw over $1.6 billion in trading volume. Speaking to The Block at Consensus Miami, Hollander noted that it "makes perfect sense" to put assets like collectible cards, luxury watches, and digital tickets on-chain for trading, and that these could be the core drivers of a new wave of NFTs.Adam Hollander emphasized that although avatar-based NFTs like Bored Apes and CryptoPunks have experienced a value crash, NFT technology still has potential to prove ownership of both digital and physical assets. He believes the previous NFT boom relied too heavily on speculation, with buyers treating NFTs more like a digital casino rather than focusing on their technology and real-world value. The future application of NFTs will be driven by actual demand for collectibles, in-game items, AI tools, and more. The development of artificial intelligence will also lower the barrier to creating digital art, animations, and games, thereby accelerating NFT adoption.Regarding platform development, OpenSea is working to build an ecosystem that allows users to manage all their crypto assets and NFTs across different wallets and chains, while optimizing the user experience. This includes simplifying the onboarding process, supporting Apple Pay-like fiat payments, and displaying NFT prices in US dollars. When asked about the delay in launching the much-anticipated SEA token, Hollander stated that the decision lies with the OpenSea Foundation, and he personally has no further information on the timeline. He emphasized that if the token were merely an "airdrop meme coin," it would not create value for users. (The Block)

Odaily News OpenSea CEO Devin Finzer posted on X platform to respond to Vanity Fair's controversial report. He stated that despite repeated external predictions that "OpenSea is over," the team continues to develop, and crypto entrepreneurship can be profitable. Since its inception, OpenSea has always focused on building products that users genuinely love, and this core direction will not change. Devin Finzer also pointed out that his partner has been involved with Bitcoin since 2011 and has long pursued independent development while supporting his career, emphasizing the importance of growing together. He stated that the related content in Vanity Fair represents a serious misinterpretation of the crypto industry and the company's narrative. The crypto industry is still in its early stages and widely misunderstood. It has the potential to integrate into culture and daily life in a "seamless" way in the future, which is also one of OpenSea's important visions. He emphasized that creating meaningful products requires long-term commitment, enduring misunderstandings, and continuous iteration.It is reported that Vanity Fair previously wrote an article referring to Devin Finzer's wife, Yu-Chi Lyra Kuo, as his "product mommy" and mentioned her providing guidance during his entrepreneurial journey.

Odaily News: NFT marketplace OpenSea has announced the postponement of its highly anticipated SEA token launch plan. OpenSea CEO Devin Finzer stated on social media on Monday that the Token Generation Event (TGE), originally scheduled for Q1 2026, will be delayed, but a new launch date has not been announced yet.Finzer mentioned that the team has been fully committed to the related development, with the original plan to initiate the launch process at an event on March 30th. However, the OpenSea Foundation has decided to push back the timeline. He candidly admitted, "A delay is a delay, and we won't sugarcoat it. The current crypto market environment is challenging, and SEA will only be launched once. We want to ensure all preparations are fully in place before proceeding."In October last year, OpenSea disclosed its SEA token plan, stating that 50% of the token supply would be allocated to the community, including early users (OG users) and participants in the platform's reward programs. Finzer also revealed that the ongoing reward campaign will be the final round.According to the previous plan, OpenSea also intended to allocate 50% of its platform revenue for token buybacks upon the token's launch and allow users to support their favorite NFT projects and collections by staking SEA.

Odaily News: OpenSea announced that it will host an online livestream event on March 30. During the event, it will unveil its latest product developments and future direction, stating that this event will mark the beginning of OpenSea's "next chapter."Addressing community speculation about the TGE timing, OpenSea CMO Adam Hollander stated on Discord that there have been no changes since the last official statement, and no further information can be disclosed at this time.
