On March 30, Panini Blockchain opened the Ethereum bridge, allowing collectors to transfer digital cards to self-custodial wallets and trade on OpenSea. With OpenSea as Panini's on-chain trading platform, collectors can now buy and sell officially licensed digital collectibles outside the Panini platform.
One of the first series available for crossover is Toikido's Bad Eggs Prizm series, which expands a rapidly developing universe known for its humor, style, and character-driven narratives, with new factions, evolving backstories, and a roadmap covering animation, games, and physical products. Bad Egg Co.'s development goes far beyond the initial collectibles release.

Report date: April 2, 2026
Validity period: March 31, 2026 - May 31, 2026 (OpenSea zero-fee policy window period)
1. Executive Summary
On March 31, 2026, OpenSea officially launched a 60-day zero-fee policy on its new OS2 platform, covering the platform's own token trading fees, lasting until the end of May. This policy was announced alongside OpenSea's delay in the issuance of SEA tokens, sparking widespread discussion in the crypto market.
For professional traders and arbitrageurs, this policy window means that token trading on OpenSea only incurs on-chain gas fees and underlying DEX transaction fees, while platform-level fees are zero (previously, OpenSea charged a 1% fee for NFT transactions and a 0.85% fee for token trading), which is an extremely rare window in history - the last time OpenSea announced zero fees (February 2023) was only for the NFT market and lasted a short time.

The Panini Blockchain will open the Ethereum bridge to users at 8 AM Central Time on March 30 (Monday), allowing users to transfer digital collectibles from the Panini wallet to a self-custody wallet. After that, these cards can be stored in the user's wallet and bought and sold on the OpenSea platform.
In December last year, Panini America conducted a series of tests, minting the first cards on the Ethereum mainnet and selling them on the OpenSea platform, after which these cards were sent back to the Panini blockchain. When a card is minted on Ethereum, the original Panini digital card is locked in Panini's custodial system to ensure that only one version of the card can be traded at a time.

The brutal crypto winter has all but starved the NFT market - most projects couldn’t withstand the cold, but there is one that seems built for the climate. It’s only fitting that Pudgy Penguins is Decrypt’s NFT Project of the Year.
In mid-2022, the enthusiasm surrounding NFTs gradually froze, and the once lively space became very cold indeed, with prices falling, sales plummeting, and the most important atmosphere in the NFT world becoming increasingly cold as collectors complained and project revenues evaporated significantly.
This was true for the vast majority of notable NFT projects prior to the bear market, but Humpty Dumpty Penguin bucked the trend and appeared to emerge stronger amid crypto’s brutal crash — ending the year in front of millions of people at Walmart stores across the country.
