We're excited to announce that creators can now use ERC721-C from @limitbreak to set and enforce their own creator earnings on OpenSea.
What is ERC721-C? ERC721-C is a standard that enables creators to implement programmable and enforceable creator earnings on-chain. It also allows creators to implement custom logic within their collections, opening up new avenues to engage their communities in innovative ways.
How does it work? Two weeks ago, we launched a new version of the OpenSea marketplace protocol, Seaport v1.6, and introduced a concept called Seaport Hooks. Simply put, Seaport Hooks allow creators to set conditions that need to be fulfilled before NFTs in their collections can be transferred. This new functionality enables creators to do a lot of cool things, including “adapting” Seaport to be compatible with the creator fee enforcement mechanism of the ERC721-C standard.
What do I have to do? It’s simple! If you’ve already deployed an ERC721-C contract, we’ve built a tool for configuring creator earning enforcement in OpenSea with one click. You can find it in the OpenSea Creator Studio under Edit Collection > Earnings. You can also configure NFTs you deploy starting today through the OpenSea Creator Studio to be 721-C compatible in the same manner.

Who is eligible? In order to leverage the 721-C compatibility hook, an NFT smart contract must already adhere to the 721-C standard or be upgradeable to one. The owner of that smart contract must then configure 721-C compatibility in the OpenSea Creator Studio — 721-C contracts, by default, will not be purchasable on OpenSea (with or without creator earnings) otherwise.
Why now? The “hook” capabilities unlocked by Seaport 1.6, such as ERC721-C compatibility, are uniquely enabled by the recent March 13th Dencun upgrade to the Ethereum network.
Anything else to know? The spirit of Seaport 1.6 is to allow creators to explore different models of NFT monetization. With that being said, OpenSea’s “earnings matching” policy will help ensure collectors are not unfairly disadvantaged on our site if creator earnings are set at different levels across other NFT marketplaces. This policy won’t impact you if your earnings are configured at the same percentage on OpenSea as other marketplaces. Learn more in the FAQ in our help center article: https://t.co/3DSUM5qCqn
We’d like to thank the Limit Break team for their work and collaboration in supporting ERC721-C compatibility with Seaport 1.6.
