Rarible Protocol Tools

Solidranked 3 of 3 in nft & ai tools◆ Sources checked · 27 Sept 2026

Lets creators deploy and manage collections without touching Solidity, into open-source contracts they own. Rarible was sold to Impossible Finance in 2026, and a 14 September 2026 proposal says protocol admin keys on 25 networks still sat with the former CTO after the sale. A small venue now; list elsewhere for liquidity.

Best for: Creating and managing NFT collections without writing contracts

How this score was reached

7.3 is the weighted average of the five pillar findings below. Dependable, with trade-offs a reader should know about first.

Custody & Security20%
6.8

Non-custodial with open-source contracts, and creators retain contract ownership. But the 14 Sep 2026 RARI DAO proposal says admin access on 25 networks, via multisigs and on some chains single-key accounts, still sat with Rarible's former CTO after the sale; it proposes moving it to Impossible Finance.

Cost & Fee Transparency25%
7.4

The docs example shows 1% from the buyer and 1% from the seller, plus optional origin fees and royalties. The full cost of deploying and managing a collection is spread across several steps.

Regulation & Legal Standing5%
6.0

Sold to Impossible Finance in 2026, which now runs its technical infrastructure. The RARI DAO, administered by the RARI Foundation, controls a treasury rather than the company.

Performance & Reliability30%
7.2

Reliable deployment tooling on Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum and Polygon, with contracts on 25 networks and Solana being added again (DAO vote, 31 Jul 2026). Marketplace liquidity is thin.

Access & Support20%
8.2

Genuinely accessible to creators with no technical background.

Strengths

  • Creators retain ownership of the deployed contract
  • Open-source contracts rather than a proprietary black box
  • Accessible to creators with no technical background

Against it

  • Total cost is spread across steps and hard to add up in advance
  • Admin keys still with the former CTO as of Sep 2026, pending transfer
  • Changed hands in 2026; thin marketplace liquidity

You keep the contract; check who holds the keys

Rarible’s tooling still does what creators came for: deploy and manage a collection without writing Solidity, into open-source contracts the creator owns, with royalties the creator sets.

The company changed hands in 2026, when Impossible Finance bought it. A RARI DAO proposal of 14 Sep 2026 says admin access to the protocol on 25 networks, via multisigs and on some chains single-key accounts, still sat with Rarible’s former CTO after the sale, and calls that a security risk. It is a small venue now: mint here, and list where the buyers are.
