MagicEden
Magic Eden is the most popular marketplace on Solana, receiving a good number of visitors who are interested in listing their NFTs on the platform. In addition to GIFs, mp4s, and images of all sizes, Magic Eden supports artwork made of GIFs, mp4s, and static images. The Magic Eden Platform is a new NFT platform built for the Solana Network that enables transactions involving NFTs, its buying, selling, and minting. Unlike the current system, NFT transactions will have a 0% listing fee and only a 2% transaction fee, which lowers entry barriers for both new and experienced buyers and sellers. The fee is paid with the SOL tokens.
