✨AUSD Marketplace

www.aomfund.com

A Web3 marketplace is a decentralized online platform built on blockchain technology where users can buy, sell, or trade digital assets β€” such as NFTs, tokens, digital art, in-game items, or even real-world assets β€” without middlemen like traditional companies or payment processors.

It’s part of the Web3 ecosystem, which focuses on ownership, transparency, and user control.


πŸ”Ή Simple Definition

A Web3 marketplace is a blockchain-based platform that allows peer-to-peer buying and selling of digital assets using smart contracts.


πŸ’  How It Works

  1. Smart contracts manage transactions automatically (no central authority).

  2. Users connect a crypto wallet (like MetaMask or WalletConnect).

  3. Payments are made in crypto (ETH, BNB, MATIC, etc.).

  4. Ownership is verified on-chain β€” assets are stored as tokens or NFTs.
