Nifty Gateway Promises Permanent NFT Hosting Post-Shutdown, Withdrawal Window Extended to April 23
Odaily Planet Daily reports that Nifty Gateway, an NFT trading platform owned by Gemini, has announced new details on how to preserve user NFTs after ceasing operations, promising that even after the platform closes, it will permanently host token metadata and media. Specific plans include migrating most NFT metadata to the decentralized storage network Arweave; for some NFTs minted in 2021 or earlier that technically cannot be migrated, the company will indefinitely continue to host their metadata.
Furthermore, the platform has extended the window for users to withdraw their NFTs to April 23, providing a total of 90 days. The company is developing a bulk extraction tool to assist users holding large numbers of NFTs in transferring their assets before the deadline. Nifty Gateway was acquired by Gemini in 2019 and emerged during the 2021 NFT craze, but later fell into difficulties due to a general decline in market trading volume, entering a withdrawal-only mode earlier this year.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that SpaceX is expected to publicly submit its IPO application in late May and price it during the week of June 15. If it achieves the financing goal of around $75 billion, this would become the largest IPO in history.
Additionally, insiders say that SpaceX has advanced the predetermined vesting dates for employee stock grants, which could be executed as early as next week. It is reported that this early vesting is expected to help alleviate employee concerns about the number of shares they can sell when the company goes public; SpaceX has informed employees that the vesting date (the time at which shares granted through stock options can begin to be sold) will be moved up from the originally expected May to April.
