The CW Labs* team has created a series of articles to comprehensively understand the NFT ecosystem and various methods for earning income within it.
In this article, we have created the ultimate guide to valuable services and tools to aid in professional analytics and gem hunting within the NFT market. Also, We have a complete and well-organized database on the cryptocurrency market that can be found on our Notion*.
We highly recommend creating a folder of bookmarks in your browser and adding all these tools. Trust us. You'll need to access them more than once. Next, let’s move on to Tier-2 services:
– Conium — another analytical dashboard. – Exodia — a trading dashboard with a useful function of sniping NFT if it was put up for sale with a deviation from the floor price. – Unix — analytical dashboard, you can use it. – Free Mint Bot — Twitter bot with free mint alerts, handy for those who like to get some. – Jpeg Cash — analogue of Flips Watch with reduced functionality, counts your P/L on flips. – NFTBank — portfolio tracker and flip analytics.

New NFT services are popping up every day, and the best way to discover them is through themed chats on Telegram, Discord channels, or Crypto Twitter. However, for the purposes of this article, we won't be discussing the use of specialized software for minting or other advanced solutions. There has always been and will continue to be an arms race in the NFT market, so be sure to take advantage of the services mentioned above.
Browser Extensions
Let's talk about browser extensions that our team uses on a daily basis. First, when dealing with crypto, we highly recommend using a separate browser for your safety. We use Brave Browser*, an excellent solution for our needs. It features no ads, provides privacy, has fast search and browsing, and is crypto-friendly. What could be better?
Our next piece of advice is to organize your browser bookmarks into thematic folders, such as Tools, Dashboards, Projects, Marketplaces, etc. In the world of crypto, you'll encounter a vast number of sites and services for daily use, so this structure will help you save time searching for bookmarks and, more importantly, will keep you safe from phishing links. Once you've set up this structure, it can be used for a long time. So here are the extensions we use:
Metamask — the best EVM-compatible wallet. Phantom — the best wallet for Solana. Ethereum Gas Prices — shows Ethereum network load. TraitSniper — multi-extension, also shows Ethereum network load and helps to understand a load of some NFT on Opensea/Looksrare depending on its attributes. Inspect — with this extension, you can find out a lot of information about a person with PFP on Twitter in the form of NFTs. Try it, and you will understand everything.
NFT Marketplaces
We've covered the services, but where can you buy and sell these JPEGs on the secondary market? Let's move on to the topic of NFT marketplaces. We'll discuss only the most popular ones, listed in descending order from largest to smallest. Tier-1:
– Opensea – the most popular NFT marketplace on Ethereum but supports Solana, Polygon, and Klaytn. – Magic Eden — the most popular NFT marketplace on Solana, recently integrated support for Ethereum.
