        abstract = {This paper presents the design and implementation of an ERC404-based NFT marketplace with cross-chain functionality between Ethereum and Polygon networks. The developed system allows users to mint, trade, and transfer NFTs while supporting fractional ownership through the ERC404 token standard. To enable secure asset transfers across different blockchains, the marketplace uses the Burn-to-Claim mechanism, which ensures that NFTs are transferred atomically without relying on centralized intermediaries. The system consists of Solidity smart contracts, a React-based frontend integrated with MetaMask, and a custom JavaScript bridge script for handling cross-chain operations. The implemented marketplace supports core functionalities such as NFT minting, listing, buying, cancellation, fractional redemption, and cross-chain transfers. Experimental testing shows that the system performs these operations successfully with reasonable transaction time, throughput, and gas consumption. The results demonstrate that ERC404, combined with cross-chain interoperability, can be effectively used to build secure, decentralized, and scalable NFT marketplace applications.},
