Galactic3 startup has released auction marketplace dApp for accounts on NEAR protocol.

The app lets users sell their own and purchase other users’ accounts securely, it’s live at https://nearnames.io for mainnet, testnet version is also available.

The similar idea was previously implemented in near.bet. This remake has notable improvements:

  • Significantly reduced required balance to sell the account, only 0.6NEAR
    is required for storage.
  • Seller can specify minimum sale price and duration of the auction.
  • Seller can provide buy now price, much like on e-bay auction.
  • Sellers can withdraw lot from auction anytime they want, provided no bids were
    made yet.
  • Bidders get a participation reward if their bid was outbid, to cover gas fees.
