Trait Bidding Points

OverviewBidding points have been updated to incorporate trait bids. Trait bids earn more points based on how much higher they are than the top collection bid and the supply of the trait. Note that while all collections have trait bids enabled, only certain collections have trait bidding points. You can find the full list of collections that have trait bidding points here.IMPORTANT: Trait floors can be less liquid and more volatile than collection floors. When you trait bid, only bid at prices...

How Trait Bids Work

Trait bids work the same way as collection bids, except for specific traits instead of the entire collection. When a seller attempts to sell an item into a trait bid, the oracle will check that the item has the relevant trait in real-time. This ensures that trait bidders on collections that have changing traits are protected. With that said, many collections store their metadata on a centralized server that they control. It is possible for items to change their traits after the oracle validat...

Season 2 Rewards & Loyalty

Overview300M+ BLUR will be distributed in Season 2 to the Blur community. Points and Loyalty determine how much BLUR each trader will receive. Both are equally important to earning BLUR. If you earn a lot of points but have low loyalty, your airdrop will be lower than if you maintained high loyalty. We designed the airdrop this way to ensure that traders who actively use Blur will be rewarded with the most tokens and control of the protocol.PointsThere are now 3 ways to earn points: Bidding p...

Repaying your borrow

Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) allows you to buy an NFT using borrowed funds. Once you’ve borrowed funds using BNPL, or by borrowing directly using an NFT you already own, your borrow balance will start growing at an interest rate based on your loan terms. Example: If you borrow 10 ETH at a 0.05% daily interest rate, your borrow balance will grow from 10 ETH to 10.15 ETH after a month.Eventually, you may want to repay your borrow to take full ownership of the NFT. Or, you can sell your NFT and keep...

Blur Bidding Rules

Blur Bid Points reward traders who provide liquidity to the Blur marketplace. In each collection, the bids that take the highest “risk” earn the vast majority of points. Some traders are attempting to cheat the point system by withdrawing bids whenever someone tries to accept them. They do this by monitoring the mempool and removing ETH from their pool or incrementing their nonce to cancel all bids at the last second. Traders who do this will be filtered from Season 2 rewards. Note that adjus...

How to earn royalties on Blur

Today, creators can’t earn royalties on Blur and OpenSea at the same time. Instead, they can only earn full royalties on OpenSea, or Blur, but not both together. OpenSea’s current royalty policy prevents collections from being able to earn royalties everywhere. They have cited various reasons for this (see FAQ), but the end result is that creators are limited to earning royalties on only one platform at a time. Blur is a marketplace that’s driven by the community. That’s why we airdropped $BL...
