Magic Eden has surged ahead of Blur as the premier NFT marketplace, marking a significant shift in digital asset exchanges. Despite Blur’s former dominance in Ethereum-based NFTs, Magic Eden’s April 2024 trading volume surpassed Blur’s by $108 million, driven by its entry into Bitcoin Ordinals and enticing rewards programs for traders and collectors.
As per DappRadar’s Dapp Industry Report for April 2024, most of Magic Eden’s trading volume (70%) now comes from Bitcoin Ordinals, showing how popular this new type of asset is in the NFT world.
Enter Runestone, a Bitcoin Ordinals masterpiece that’s taken the market by storm, even outpacing the famed Bored Ape Yacht Club in trading activity.
The report noted changes in the NFT market. In April, total trading volume fell by 13% to $1.35 billion, but sales went up by 20%. This is because Runestone, a Bitcoin Ordinals inscription, is now more popular than Bored Ape Yacht Club, leading in trading volume.
Bitcoin collections had a 32% increase in trading volume, hitting $675 million, making Bitcoin the blockchain with the highest trading volume, followed by Ethereum. The Blast chain is also gaining popularity among traders who want to earn airdrop points through Blur’s new deployment.
In essence, Magic Eden’s triumph signals an exciting journey ahead for NFT enthusiasts and investors, with new developments and opportunities emerging at every turn.
