Magic Eden moved to an optional royalties model
The 0% royalties fever is currently spreading across the entire NFTs market and Solana is no exception.
Not long after DeGods (the most expensive collection on Solana announced the 0% royalties model update). A series of NFTs marketplace exchanges on Solana have also responded.
However, to avoid shocking all users, Magic Eden chose a more comfortable way, which is to use the optional royalties model. This allows traders on the exchange to contribute freely. An ingenious handling from the Magic Eden team.
Solanart and Hades Swap now make up 20% of NFT market share on Solana
Right now, Magic Eden’s dominance is more clearly threatened than ever. Currently Solanart with V2 update and Hades Swap (new generation NFT AMM) is gradually taking market share from this largest NFTs exchange Solana.
