it is WILD to me that we only have allowlists for minting and NOT for secondary sales. that’s not how the trading of art, luxury goods, family heirlooms, homes, even surfboards works. most secondary marketplaces IRL have a curation layer to filter buyers. this is why NFT marketplaces lose volume to private txns :)

This can be done at the token contract layer. I don’t think it makes sense at the marketplace layer because if I’m an owner and want to get around that to sell my token I’d just use a different marketplace

and this is why most NFT communities have zero soul and have flopped or died out over the past 2.5 or 3 years. the friction layer is a feature, not a bug.

right, my point is that it’s up to the token creator to define the rules of this friction, not the secondary marketplace. any transfer restrictions done in the secondary marketplace contract can be avoided so it needs to be in the token contract if you want the rules to be enforced

agree it needs to be at contract layer. from this thread, i learned that highlight.xyz is doing it at the contract level (which i think is brilliant move) and excited to see how it works for them long term. im still pretty sure a form of allowlisting *can* be implemented at the marketplace, even if contract is better.
