Today: the **Marketplace** contract

This _marketplace_ allows anyone to buy and sell native assets such as NFTs.

_Step 1_: go to [https://meshjs.dev/smart-contracts/marketplace](https://meshjs.dev/smart-contracts/marketplace)

_Step 2_: go to “Mint a token to try the demo” and mint the Mesh token.

_Step 3_: go to “List Assets”, connect your wallet, and click on “List Mesh Token” (yep, the same token you minted in step 2).

_Step 4_: once listed, go to “Update Listing” and update the listing price of your Mesh token.

_Step 5_: in this point, you have to options:

- Option 5.1: go to “Buy Asset” and buy your Mesh token, or

- Option 5.2: go to “Cancel Listing” and take your token back to your wallet.

_Try both!_ Note: after trying one of the options, you have to repeat steps 2 and 3 to test the next one.

Would you like to take a look at the source code of the contract?

For sure! Go to [mesh/packages/contracts/src/marketplace at main · MeshJS/mesh · GitHub](https://github.com/MeshJS/mesh/tree/main/packages/contracts/src/marketplace)
