Using theVenly Shopify merchant app, storefronts can sell NFTs with "minimal technical knowledge," according to a press release. NFTs created by merchants are "automatically turned into products" that can be displayed and purchased on their storefronts. In addition, buyers are not required to have an existing crypto wallet and instead will receive an email with a link to a newly-created blockchain wallet.

"The integration makes it easy to navigate Avalanche NFT sales from initial design all the way through final distribution," said John Nahas, vice president of business at Ava Labs, the developer of the Avalanche blockchain.

The e-commerce giantlaunched its first NFT integrationin July 2021, allowing merchants to sell NFTs directly from their stores instead of through third-party marketplaces. In addition, the platform released anNFT collection with the NBA's Chicago Bulls.

According to Venly, Shopify owners can also earn royalties on secondary NFT transactions through the Venly Market.

“Our growing blockchain ecosystem demonstrates our commitment to supporting merchants as they sell NFTs directly through their storefronts, helping to further grow participation in Web3 and expand what’s possible in commerce," said Shopify's blockchain ecosystem lead Christina Lomazzo.

Shopify joins a growing number of mainstream platforms that have embraced digital collectibles. Instagram and its parent company Metarecently opened up NFT minting and sellingto a select group of digital creators, while Redditsuccessfully launched its NFT marketplace.

Auto-Erotic Sphinx with Toys
In this image, a giant sphinx spoons itself in erotic play within an aquatic styled environment littered by various denizens. These creatures include symbols and archetypes both current and nostalgic–each inhabiting a rootedness within mass cultural adolescence. Among the roster are Servbots, video game inspired mushrooms, a Pacman-like creature, a distant sea faring rubber duck, creatures sporting the symbols reminiscent of popular anime, and a Pokemon-like rabbit (a novel incarnation of Ganesha indicated by the Shiva trident on its nose). In addition, a few sea creatures partly inspired by sea monsters of western antiquity conglomerate along the mid left side of the composition. The Sphinx itself is an amalgam of aquatic, fetishist, ancient Egyptian, and 80’s style adornments, both living, as in a clown fish, or material, such as a cassette tape. Nautically colored antennae receive somatic signals from the atmosphere, perhaps from the 8 Ball moon or giant ringed planet beyond.
