How to create an NFT token on the OpenSea platform

1. First, log in to the OpenSea.io site and click Create on the home page of the site.
2. On this page, you will be asked to connect your Ethereum wallet to the platform. This platform uses Metamask by default; but you can also select other wallets by clicking the Use a Different Wallet option. Since we are using MetaMask, we click Sign In and after entering the password to the wallet, we connect to the OpenSea site.
3. After you are connected to your wallet, the following page will open. Click on Create a Collection. You can also click on the three dots and create your NFT token on other platforms such as Rarible.
4. After entering the Create a Collection page, you need to enter the information about your token.
• Logo image (350 x 350 pixels)

• An image to display your collection (optional)

• Banner image (optional)

• Token name, URL address (the address that will be displayed in the OpenSea link), Token description (in Markdown Syntax)

Also, if you have a website, enter its address and if you have a special channel for your NFT token on Discord, Twitter, Instagram, Medium and Telegram, enter them as well.
In the Royalties section, you need to specify the percentage you will receive when another user sells an item you created. This percentage is deducted from the final price sold by the user and transferred to an address you define on a monthly basis. NFTs can be programmed so that each transaction includes a royalty, allowing the creators of these tokens to receive a percentage of the sale of their tokens by others.
Since non-fungible tokens are stored on the blockchain, they can be transferred from one wallet to another, and royalties are paid whenever they are moved. In this link, you can fully familiarize yourself with the mechanism of royalties and how to set them up.

After choosing this percentage, you need to select the network on which you want your NFT to be created; OpenSea supports two blockchains, Ethereum and Polygon, and will soon add the Klatyn network.
In the Payment Tokens section, you need to specify the tokens that users must pay to buy and sell your NFT. These cryptocurrencies include Ether, WETH, DAI, and USDC. Of course, you can also select other tokens in the Add Token section; but you should also pay attention to the ease of payment for users. These 4 cryptocurrencies, which are available by default in OpenSea, are the most convenient methods of payment.

How much does it cost to create an NFT?
The cost of creating an NFT on the OpenSea platform is between $50 and $100, which must be paid in Ether (ETH) coins. Of course, the gas cost depends on the network congestion and the price of Ethereum.

This platform also has an initial fee for creating a collection; but after the Collection is created, each NFT token that is included in the same collection will be created for free.

Some platforms charge a fee for each non-fungible token you create, while others allow you to create NFTs for free, but deduct the creation fee from you after the token is sold.

What can be converted into NFTs on OpenSea?
You can convert the following items into NFTs on the OpenSea platform; keep in mind that each platform may not have some of the following or may have additional items; you should first check if the item you want to convert into a non-fungible token is available on OpenSea.

NFT creation requirements for Iranians

All of these platforms comply with US sanctions laws, and since the US has placed Iran on its list of sanctioned countries, we cannot use NFT creation and buying and selling platforms with Iranian IPs. Therefore, to use the OpenSea platform, we must connect with a VPN or VPS.

If you connect to such platforms with an Iranian IP, they will close your account and record all your works and You cannot access them.
