Tokstock is the main NFT marketplace on the Everscale blockchain, which makes it remarkably simple to buy, sell, and manage your digital collectibles. Tokstock offers an intuitive experience that enables swift operations with NFTs similar to fungible tokens yet without additional costs.
In this guide, we walk you through the essentials of Tokstock, from authorizing and trading to auctions and transfers, so you can start making the most of your digital treasures.
Authorization
Before you begin, make sure you have the EVER Wallet Chrome extension installed with the deployed Everscale blockchain address. Once you open Tokstock’s website, click the button “Connect wallet” at the top right corner of the page, choose EVER Wallet from the list, and approve the connection:
After logging in, you will be able to access your account on Tokstock and change its settings, as well as observe your NFT collection, and the trading history. A profile is also needed to perform various operations with NFTs that we break down next.
Buying and Selling NFTs
When you’re ready to start exploring, browse through Tokstock’s curated collections like Broxies or Pokerton King, along with individual works until something catches your eye. Besides a list of tokens, each collection page provides some general data: a number of items and their owners, the creation date, a total trading volume, and a floor price, i.e. the lowest price of any item in that collection. Some NFTs may sell for a few dollars, while others can command hundreds or even thousands. The price is set by the owner, and it depends on various factors.
Every separate token has its own page that contains an image or a video in high resolution, a description of an item, existing offers, price history, and the activity tracking.
Once you’ve found a piece you want to acquire, simply click on its preview to view details, and, if you’re ready to pay the ask price right away, hit “Buy Now” and confirm a transaction in your EVER Wallet:
Make sure an NFT has a specified price: not all NFTs from collections listed on Tokstock are on sale. In case of the latter, you will see a phrase “Not for sale” in the price field:
After the funds are deducted, an NFT gets instantly stored in your wallet, and you become its owner.
Selling an NFT on Tokstock is just as straightforward. Visit your personal profile, select an NFT from your collection, and choose to put it up for sale. After setting your desired price, confirm with your EVER Wallet. With these simple steps, you’re effectively listing your NFT for buyers worldwide. You will find your token on sale in the collection it belongs to.
How to Create an NFT Auction and Make a Bid
One distinctive feature of Tokstock is the ability for any user to start auctions and participate in them. An auction can help you get the best possible price for a sought-after NFT.
To participate in an auction, search for an NFT that has an active auction, which will be reflected in its preview:
Navigate to this item’s page and click the button “Place a bid”. There, you will see a minimum amount you can bid, either keep it or enter a higher amount:
Confirm the transaction with your EVER Wallet, and your bid will be registered on the blockchain. If you place the highest bid by the time the auction ends, you become the winner, and the NFT is automatically transferred to your wallet.
If you want to start an auction for an NFT you own, choose it from the list in your wallet and set parameters such as the opening bid, the minimum increase for subsequent bids, and the auction’s duration.
Your EVER Wallet’s confirmation finalizes everything, making your auction live. Once the countdown ends, Tokstock determines the highest bidder, seamlessly transferring your NFT to its new home and depositing payment directly into your wallet.
If you ever need to intervene, for instance, to end the auction early, just revisit your auction details, click to close it, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
Making Offers on NFTs
Not every NFT for sale will fit into a fixed-price scenario. Maybe you’ve stumbled upon a piece that’s not currently listed, or the seller’s asking price feels too high. In that case, Tokstock allows you to make an offer.
On the NFT’s dedicated page, you’ll find a button that lets you propose a price you find fair. Input your desired amount and how long you’d like the offer to remain valid, then authorize the transaction through your EVER Wallet.
The seller can accept, reject, or simply let an offer expire. If accepted, the NFT becomes yours in just a few seconds in exchange for the funds from your wallet, ensuring a dynamic marketplace experience.
How to Store and Transfer an NFT on Everscale
One of the true beauties of Everscale is that NFTs are handled as easily as fungible tokens. Once bought, your NFT settles into your EVER Wallet, right alongside your other assets, such as EVER. You will find all your NFTs bound to the current address under the tab “NFT”:
When it’s time to move your NFT as part of a trade agreement, gift or for any other reason, just select this NFT in your wallet’s interface, enter the recipient’s Everscale address, and confirm the transfer. Within moments, the NFT arrives safely at its destination, granting you the freedom to manage your digital art pieces without navigating complexities.
