How to Create an NFT on Ethereum (No Code, 2026 Guide)
iMintify· Published June 27, 2026· Updated July 24, 2026
Ethereum is the original NFT chain and still has the deepest collector base and the strongest marketplace support through OpenSea. It costs more in gas than newer chains, but for high-value 1-of-1s and established projects that reach is worth it. Here is how to create an NFT on Ethereum with no code, using iMintify.
Why create an NFT on Ethereum?
Prestige and liquidity. Ethereum has the most active buyers, the widest wallet support, and the most trusted marketplaces. If your collection is aimed at serious collectors, this is where they are. The downside is gas: minting and deploying cost more than on Solana or a layer-2, and fees rise with demand.
How to create an NFT on Ethereum, step by step
- Create your art. Generate it with the AI generator, or build a collection with the layer generator.
- Choose your standard. In Deploy Collection, pick ERC-721 for unique pieces or ERC-1155 for editions. No Solidity required.
- Set your options. Supply, mint price, royalties, allowlist and reveal are all set in the wizard, then written into an audited contract.
- Pick mint site or marketplace. Launch your own hosted mint page, or deploy and list on OpenSea and other Ethereum marketplaces.
- Deploy to your wallet. Sign once with MetaMask. The audited contract lands in your wallet, so you keep full ownership.
Ethereum or a layer-2?
If gas is a concern, you get the same ERC-721 and ERC-1155 standards on Polygon or Base for a fraction of the fee, still listable on OpenSea. Choose Ethereum mainnet when the collector prestige and liquidity justify the cost, and a layer-2 when you want cheap mints with EVM compatibility.
What it costs
Creating and deploying is free on iMintify. On Ethereum you pay the network's gas fee, which varies, so pick your moment or use a layer-2. New here? Start with what is an NFT.
