Rewards Bonanza Sparks Engagement on Solana and Beyond
Magic Eden’s enhanced rewards program has set sail on the Solana blockchain, with plans for expansion to Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Polygon. The comprehensive rewards platform introduces quests, tailored perks for collectors and creators, and an immersive rewards experience. With over 100,000 daily wallet connections, Magic Eden aims to position itself as a formidable player in the industry, challenging leaders like Blur by offering an enticing platform for community rewards.
The opportunity is enormous, and we are realizing this vision by expanding our products—the marketplace, wallet, rewards—across multiple chains and ecosystems. Zhuoxun ‘Zedd’ Yin, Co-Founder and COO of Magic Eden, emphasized the platform’s commitment to universal digital ownership
Open-Source Endeavor Empowers the NonFungible DAO
Magic Eden’s embrace of collaboration and progress involves contributing essential portions of its code, including marketplace protocols, to the newly formed NonFungible DAO. This strategic move aims to foster long-term growth in the NFT ecosystem through open-source, community-driven software. By making core tools and contracts open-source, Magic Eden invites the global community to leverage, adapt, and collaborate.
The NonFungible DAO, set to administer the open-source software, has plans to introduce the $NFT token to bolster NFT adoption and innovation.
Cross-Chain Wallet Pinnacle Transforms NFT Trading
Since late 2023, Magic Eden has beta-tested its revolutionary cross-chain wallet, designed for instant cryptocurrency swaps across Bitcoin, Solana, Ethereum, and Polygon. The self-custody wallet, set for global release by the end of January, promises a seamless experience for trading NFTs across diverse blockchains. Integrated directly with the Magic Eden marketplace, the wallet introduces novel avenues for users to earn rewards.
We are excited to offer a speedy, frictionless experience to NFT collectors trading on multiple blockchains. Jack Lu, CEO of Magic Eden, emphasized the profound significance of the cross-chain wallet
Magic Eden’s Rewards Program Gains Momentum
Following the unveiling of the rewards program, Magic Eden experienced a surge in growth and user engagement. Within a single day, floor listings quadrupled, showcasing the immediate impact of the rewards initiative. Marketplace pools witnessed a substantial 250% increase, with nearly 60% of new Solana NFT wallets opting for Magic Eden. The platform’s commitment to community appreciation is further exemplified through a retroactive drop for Solana OGs, slated to commence next Friday.
As Magic Eden charts a course toward evolution and expansion, it emerges as a beacon of innovation, propelling NFT adoption and community involvement to new heights. The platform’s strategic initiatives set the stage for a dynamic and inclusive future in the NFT space.
