Nifty Gateway is an online marketplace for non-fungible tokens that focuses on curated digital art released in timed "drops" by invited artists and brands. It was founded in 2018 by twin brothers Duncan and Griffin Cock Foster and was acquired in 2019 by Gemini, the crypto exchange founded by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss. Unlike open marketplaces such as OpenSea, where anyone can list a collection, Nifty Gateway selects what is sold on its primary market. It was built to feel familiar to mainstream buyers: purchases can be paid by card or bank transfer, and NFTs can be held in a custodial account on the platform instead of a self-managed wallet. The site hosted several high-profile art sales during the 2021 NFT boom, and it also runs a secondary market where collectors resell items. Also see NFT royalties.
