what's blur?

Blur is an NFT marketplace tailored for professional traders, emphasizing speed, efficiency, and advanced tools for trading non-fungible tokens. Its core purpose is to provide a zero-fee platform with flexible royalty options, deep liquidity, and features like NFT sweeping across multiple marketplaces, real-time sniping of reveals, and comprehensive portfolio analytics. Blur also integrates DeFi elements through its Blend protocol, a peer-to-peer perpetual NFT lending platform that allows users to borrow against NFT collateral or lease assets for higher yields. Launched in 2022, Blur has become a dominant player in the NFT space by incentivizing liquidity and supporting high-volume trading without traditional fees. Key features include bidding pools for organic volume and support for major collections like CryptoPunks and Pudgy Penguins, enhancing accessibility for both borrowers and lenders in the NFT ecosystem.
