Lootex was a gamer-centric, cross-chain NFT marketplace — "Loot + Exchange." The mission was simple: give digital asset ownership back to the players.

The platform specialized in blockchain gaming assets with interfaces designed for characters, equipment, cards, and in-game items — not generic art-focused NFT browsing.

Key features

  • Cross-chain support across Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Mantle, Base, and Soneium
  • 3D asset previews, NFT Launchpad, and Lootpedia analytics explorer
  • Smart Accounts powered by ERC-4337 account abstraction
  • Custom branded storefronts for game developers
  • Infrastructure on Google Kubernetes Engine with zero downtime during extreme traffic spikes

Backed by Spartan Capital, Infinity Ventures Crypto, LD Capital, Akatsuki, Polygon Studio, HTC, Huobi Ventures, and angel investors including Kevin Lin (Twitch co-founder), Holly Liu (Kabam co-founder), and Patrick Lee (Rotten Tomatoes co-founder).

The NFT market shifted dramatically. Lootex shut down in March 2026 after 8 years of operation. All on-chain smart contracts continue to function — user assets were never custodied.
