By: Invezz

The FTX Token FTT/USD is the utility token used by the FTX cryptocurrency exchange, which can be used to reduce trading fees or serve as collateral against futures positions. Users can also stake the token to earn interest.

The NFT marketplace as a catalyst for growth

On September 6, we covered Sam Bankman-Fried’s exchange FTX and how it made moves to attract new users by announcing plans to introduce spot trading for new coins and the ability to create, buy and sell NFTs. 

That being said, FTX is moving closer to the launch of its NFT marketplace, where we saw a pixel art sale test.

This 24-hour long auction for Bankman-Fried’s NFT, which has a hand-written image of the word “Test” using a graphic editor program, started on FTX.US, which is the American affiliate of the Hong Kong-based company.

This FTX move into the NFT space is only an example of the increased interest companies are starting to have for these tokens.
