Rarible is probably one of the best places where you can upload and sell your NFT Collectibles and NFT Artworks. Rarible allows digital artists and creators to issue and sell digital assets, artworks and collectibles on their platform. Rarible is both a marketplace for selling and buying digital assets as well as a distributed network that allows the trade of those assets without needing a middle man.
It is built on the Ethereum Blockchain and users use the ETH Cryptocurrency to trade, buy or sell an digital asset.
Digital assets are becoming highly popular these days. Rarible.com is a blockchain application that helps you buy and sell Non-Fungible Tokens. Today in this article, we will assist you in creating an NFT in Rarible.
What are NFTs?

In simple terms, NFT or Non-Fungible Tokens are similar to things we own and can sell in the actual world. However, when we step into cyberspace, NFTs are digital assets that you can create, purchase, and trade. There are different non-fungible items that we can find on the Internet. For instance, social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram are NFTs.
When you create something digital such as an artistic work you can convert it into an NFT. NFT’s are unique and special because they cannot be replicated, duplicated and are irreplaceable. For instance, Bitcoin is fungible because it can be replicated and possible to create a copy of. If you own 2 Bitcoins, you give one to your friend, he will have the same Bitcoin as yours. However, NFT’s are Non-Fungible, meaning each NFT asset or artwork is different from each other. They have the ability to become unique because they are able to hold specific additional data or information that can hold data like ownership and history of ownership. All of these data and information is stored in the blockchain.
What is Rarible?

As mentioned above, we require blockchain applications to create and sell the NFTs we have created. Rarible is a platform that offers you the opportunity to purchase and sell digital art.
Here, you will have ownership of the items you create. Along with that, you can attain royalties for your digital art. Whenever you are working with platforms like Rarible, you need funds like Etherium. Use a Crypto Wallet for that purpose.
It is essential to have money that you can use while interacting with blockchain applications like Rarible. Remember that you will need Etherium that values over 10 US Dollars. Here, you will require gas fees or the cost of conducting transactions, and it could be higher on some days.
HOW TO CREATE AN ACCOUNT ON RARIBLE?

If you are wondering how to create an account on Rarible, it’s actually pretty simple. As you can see from their website, there are no sign up options using email or phone number. This is because in order for you to create an account on Rarible, you will need to first create a Digital Crypto Wallet.
It is through the wallet and after you connect your wallet with Rarible, your account will be automatically created on Rarible.
To login into the Rarible website, you will need to login using your Crypto Wallet.
Creating Your Crypto Wallet
A crypto wallet helps you manage your digital assets. For instance, you can send and receive them with the assistance of a crypto wallet. You can have your crypto wallet as an extension on your browser or as an application on your smartphone.
There are 5 options for Crypto Wallets on Rarible. They are Fortmatic, WalletConnect, Coinbase Wallet, MyEtherWallet and Torus. Additionally, you can also create a MetaMask wallet which is a famous company for Crypto Wallet that allows you to store, trade, buy and sell Crypto Currencies.
You can choose any one of the wallets, however, my personal preference is MetaMask and MyEtherWallet as it is easy to create a crypto wallet with these companies and also easy to connect to the Rarible Platform.
For this Guide, we will go with MetaMask and MyEtherWallet. However, if you wish to connect with other Digital Crypto Wallets, then I will surely write an article on how to create a wallet on each of those Digital walllet companies.
How to Create Your Crypto Wallet?
Here are the steps included in creating a crypto wallet (we will discuss how to do so on Metamask).
Go to MetaMask.io
Click on “Download Now”.
Next Click on “Install MetaMask for Chrome” and download the extension for the Crypto wallet (here, we will opt for Metamask).
Here, you will be directed to the Chrome Web Store page and you will see the page for MetaMask pop up.
Next click on “Add to Chrome”.
After that click on “Add extension”.
Next you will be directed to another page. Go through the page and click next.
After which you will arrive at “Privacy Notice”. Read the script and click the “Accept” Button.
Next accept the “Terms and Conditions page”.
The next step is to create a password for your wallet. Create a secure password and click on the “Create” Button.
MetaMask will now give you a seed phrase. A seed phrase is basically a 12 word secret words that should be remembered in sequence or written down somewhere safe. These words will act as your key whenever you loose your password, or if you are unable to access your wallet by any chance.
Therefore, please be sure to keep this safe and don’t forget it at any cost. Once you have copied it safely, you can click on “I’ve copied it somewhere safe” Button.

How to Transfer Funds to Your MetaMask Wallet?
The next step which is one of the most important steps is to fund your MetaMask account.
Here actually you can also use Coinbase to directly connect your Coinbase wallet to Rarible. However, if you want things to be minimalistic and just use one wallet to connect to different NFT marketplaces, I suggest you use MetaMask.
However, in order for you to transfer funds to your MetaMask account, you will need to sign up and create an account on Coinbase.com.
The reason why I suggest using Coinbase as a method of buying Crypto currency is because it Best handles Crypto Payments and buying Crypto Currency. However, MetaMask is great for connecting with NFT platforms because some NFT platforms are not compatible with Coinbase.
Here is a guide directly from Coinbase to help you create an account there.
How to Create a Coinbase account?
Once you’ve created your coinbase account, it’s time to add funds to your Coinbase account first.
Here are the steps to transfer funds to your Coinbase wallet.
Login to your Coinbase account
You will find the Buy or Sell Etherium option. Enter the amount of Ethereum you want to Buy.
Next Click on the “Buy Ethereum” Buttion.
Next choose your payment method and click on “Confirm Buy” Button.
Next click on the MetaMask Fox Icon on the top right corner of the screen. Then click on the three black dots which will pop up some options. Choose the “Copy Address to Clipboard” Option.
This will copy the “Recipients Address” which will be your MetaMask accounts address as you are transferring funds from your Coinbase account to MetaMask wallet.
Next, go back to your Coinbase account and click on the Accounts Tab. Then click on the “Send” Button.
Next paste the “Recipients Address” which is the MetaMask Wallet account address which you just copied. Then Click on the “Continue” Button”.
Congrats, you have successfully funded your Coinbase account and also transferred the funds to your MetaMask account. The next step that is left is connecting your MetaMask account with Rarible.com.
