Blur, like many other popular NFT marketplaces that have returned to prominence following a challenging and dry phase in the crypto industry, recently made it big in the crypto industry with the airdop of its token.
In fact, Blur tokens have already collected over $500 million in trading activity in less than 24 hours since their much-publicized airdrop (an uninvited release of a cryptocurrency token or coin, usually for free, to a large number of wallet addresses, and are commonly employed as a user acquisition strategy.)
Blur Tokens Airdrop – a Breakdown of the Airdrop:
- BLUR tokens were distributed to Blur marketplace users, with the quantity distributed determined by the total activity, network volume, and transactions made by each user on the site.
- According to Twitter, some individuals received up to 128,000 BLUR tokens. According to the blockchain application Etherscan, customers earn anything from 25 BLUR to hundreds of thousands of BLUR.
- Soon after the airdrop, Blockchain data shows over 33,000 distinct blur wallet holders as of Wednesday morning. Most of these got the airdrop before transferring the tokens to other wallets.
- Following the airdrop, some dealers sold a large number of tokens. The tokens were initially priced at $1 on the cryptocurrency platform Coinbase but dropped as low as 48 cents late Tuesday. However, during Asian hours on Wednesday, the tokens increased to 72 cents at the time of writing.
- According to CoinGecko data, almost $530 million in blur has been traded on exchanges such as OKX, Kucoin, and Uniswap.
- Meanwhile, according to DeFiLlama data, the overall value of tokens on the Blur marketplace increased by $10 million in the last 24 hours.
