Listing tokens for sale on multiple platforms

Hello,

I have a collection of art I’m looking to release and be listed on as many platforms as possible. I understand it is a no-no to mint multiple copies of the same underlying artwork and sell them as separate pieces. What I’m looking to do is mint a single copy of each token and have them visible on as many platforms as possible; so that when an NFT sells on one platform, it is taken down for sale on all platforms. <—I hope that makes sense the way I worded it.

I understand there are some platforms that are integrated (i.e I was told when you mint an NFT on Foundation.app it is also indexed and visible on Opensea), can anyone tell me exactly which platforms are integrated and in what specific ways (do they have to be minted on ETH rather than Base, which ones automatically index the tokens and which will have to be manually imported, etc.)?

Is there a best way to go about doing something like this? i.e Would I be better off starting on a minting platform like Manifold or Transient Labs and then manually importing them somehow to as many platforms as possible?

My other requisite is a description section that offers more than 1000 characters- Foundation is the only platform I have tried that has a character limit- so my question is if I mint on Manifold and the description contains more than 1000 characters, would the full description be visible on Foundation/ other platforms that may have a limit?

A related question is if the description section contains markdown syntax to add links, would those links be rendered properly everywhere the token is listed on? I understand Manifold supports markdown, if that token whose description contains embedded links gets indexed/listed on other platforms whose own minting process does not support markdown, would those links still work properly or just show up as plain text?

Thank you for any information you can provide. My apologies if this is supposed to be separate posts.

gm! When you mint a token, open platforms will be automatically ingest the token to make it available for sale. Platforms like Opensea, Rarible will do this automatically. Closed platforms like SuperRare etc will do this by request.

When listing a token for sale, different platforms will have different rules. ie. Listing on Manifold Gallery/Foundation is a custodial auction where the auction will take ownership of the token until a sale is completed or cancelled.

If you use our testnet workspace you can actually preview how this content will appear on platforms that support testnet.

Gm! Thank you for your response.
So let’s say the token is listed on Manifold gallery, but also indexed by Foundation, and also ingested by Opensea, Rarible, etc. is Manifold the platform which holds the contract until the sale is over? Or does the ownership start on whichever specific platform the buyer uses when the sale starts? <—I hope that makes sense as well.

Do the open platforms only ingest the tokens minted on ETH, or Base ETH as well?

Are there any major differences between minting on Manifold vs. Niftykit vs. Knownorigin vs. Transient Labs?

Also, would you happen to know which web3 platforms use descriptions sections that are directly on the blockchain?

Basically, my art uses images gathered from the web that require me to add proper attribution and links, and I want to ensure that that information properly travels with the token and is visible wherever it is listed and displayed. The farther I get down the NFT road the more I think perhaps there is a better house out there for my art. Interested to hear your thoughts.

My apologies again if these are supposed to be separate posts, I’m also looking for different places to talk and ask questions about these processes.
