Collectors

Browse collections, place bids, or buy at fixed price. Your wallet stays in your control—Panthart is non-custodial and all settlement happens on-chain.

TL;DR: Connect wallet → pick an item → buy or bid → the marketplace escrow contract handles the rest. Creator royalties (if present) and marketplace fees settle automatically at transfer.

Quick links

Before you buy

• Wallet & network. Use a modern EVM wallet (e.g., Rabby, MetaMask) connected to Electroneum EVM.
• Gas. Network fees are low; you’ll see a small gas charge to approve tokens (first time) and to finalize a buy/bid.
• Storage. Media and metadata live on IPFS/Arweave per collection policy; provenance events live on-chain.

Finding items

• Collections directory. Filter by verified status, category, supply (721/1155), and floor price:
  Browse → panth.art/collections 
• Live auctions. Sorted by ending soon / highest bid:
  Bid now → panth.art/auction 
• Fixed-price marketplace. Everything instantly buyable:
  Shop → panth.art/listings 

Buying at fixed price

1. Open the item page and review metadata, edition, and royalty note.
2. Click Buy now, confirm the total (price + gas).
3. Settlement routes: seller receives proceeds, creator royalty (if configured) is paid, and 2.5% marketplace fee is collected (1.5% → Reward Distributor, 1% → Panthart fee wallet).
4. The NFT transfers to your wallet instantly after chain finality.

First-time buyers may see an approval step (ERC-20 or WETH-style flows for certain listings). You’ll only do this once per token.

Bidding in auctions

• Format. English-style timed auctions with on-chain increments and optional anti-sniping extension.
• Placing a bid. Enter a value >= current bid + min increment. Your funds escrow in the marketplace contract.
• Outbid? Your previous bid is released back to your wallet immediately.
• Win. When the timer ends, the contract finalizes: NFT transfers to you; payouts and fees settle atomically.

Watch the ending soon filter on the auctions page for last-minute opportunities:

Offers (where supported)

• Make an offer below list price on eligible items or entire collections (floor offers).
• Creators/sellers can accept from their dashboard; settlement mirrors a normal sale.
• Expired or declined offers automatically release the escrow back to your wallet.

Fees, rewards, and royalties

• Marketplace fee: 2.5% of the final sale.
  • 1.5% flows to the Reward Distributor for Non-Fungible Comrades holders.
  • 1% flows to the Panthart fee wallet.
• Creator royalties (optional): Honored at list/sale time per collection policy.
• Gas: Minimal, paid by the actor who triggers each action (buyer for buy/bid, seller for list/cancel).

Receipts & provenance

• Every transfer emits standard ERC-721/1155 events for clear on-chain provenance.
• Item pages display chain tx links for verification on the Electroneum explorer.
• Your Profile → Activity shows a complete audit trail of buys, bids, and offers.

Trust & safety

• Non-custodial. We never hold your keys or NFTs.
• Escrowed funds. Auction and offer balances live in the marketplace contract until finalization or release.
• Verification. Favor verified collections and check contract addresses in References → Contract Addresses.

Troubleshooting

• “Insufficient funds / gas.” Top up ETN and retry.
• “Approval required.” Confirm the one-time token approval and repeat your action.
• “Tx pending.” Wait for chain finality or open the tx in the explorer from the item page.
