Magic Eden通過主要的彈弓收購進行加密交易

魔術伊甸園（Magic Eden）正在遠離NFT，並將目光投向主導OnChain代幣交易空間。

Magic Eden, the Solana NFT marketplace, is venturing into crypto trading with the acquisition of Slingshot Finance, a mobile-centric trading app.

Solana NFT市場Magic Eden通過收購Slingshot Finance（一個以移動設備為中心的交易應用程序）進行加密交易。

The move, which was reported by The Information and confirmed by Magic Eden, marks a new chapter for the company as it expands beyond NFTs to offer a broader range of crypto services.

該舉報由信息報告並由魔術伊甸園（Magic Eden）確認，標誌著該公司的新篇章，因為它擴展了NFT，以提供更廣泛的加密服務。

Slingshot is known for its sleek user experience and multi-chain capabilities, allowing users to trade tokens across different blockchains seamlessly. The app supports millions of tokens and operates on more than ten chains, including Solana, Ethereum, and Bitcoin.

Slingshot以其光滑的用戶體驗和多鏈功能而聞名，使用戶可以無縫地在不同的區塊鏈上進行交易。該應用程序支持數百萬個令牌，並在包括Solana，Ethereum和Bitcoin在內的十個鏈條上運行。

Slingshot’s appeal lies in its ability to simplify an otherwise messy process. Usually, traders need to select a chain, bridge tokens, pay gas fees, and manage multiple wallets when trading across chains, but Slingshot handles all of that in the background.

Slingshot的吸引力在於它可以簡化原本混亂的過程的能力。通常，交易者需要在跨連鎖店交易時選擇一個鏈條，橋樑代幣，支付汽油費以及管理多個錢包，但是彈弓在後台處理所有這些錢包。

This focus on ease of use aligns perfectly with Magic Eden’s goal of making crypto accessible to everyone, regardless of their technical background.

這種專注於易用性的關注與Magic Eden的目標是使每個人都可以使用加密貨幣的目標，無論其技術背景如何。

While NFTs remain a core part of Magic Eden’s DNA, the marketplace is constantly looking for new ways to serve the community and the broader crypto ecosystem.

儘管NFT仍然是Magic Eden DNA的核心部分，但市場一直在尋找為社區和更廣泛的加密生態系統服務的新方法。

As trading volume in the NFT sector has slowed down, Magic Eden is adapting by expanding into new areas.

隨著NFT行業的交易量放緩，Magic Eden正在通過擴展到新領域來適應。

“We still believe in the long-term potential of NFTs, especially in domains like gaming and collectibles where scarcity and digital ownership are valued,” said Jack Lu, CEO of Magic Eden.

“我們仍然相信NFT的長期潛力，尤其是在諸如稀缺和數字所有權之類的收藏品等領域，” Magic Eden的首席執行官Jack Lu說。

“But we also see the need for real-world utility and services to drive the next wave of crypto adoption.”

“但是我們還看到需要現實世界實用程序和服務來推動下一波加密貨幣的採用。”

The Slingshot deal accelerates Magic Eden’s entry into full-fledged token trading. Although the platform had already introduced cross-chain swaps, Slingshot dramatically expands those capabilities and offers a far more powerful and intuitive trading experience.

彈弓交易加速了Magic Eden進入成熟的令牌交易。儘管該平台已經引入了跨鏈掉期，但Slingshot急劇擴展了這些功能，並提供了更強大和直觀的交易體驗。

Founded in 2020, Slingshot has amassed nearly a million users and secured funding from major investors including Coinbase Ventures and Electric Capital.

Slingshot成立於2020年，已積累了近一百萬用戶，並從包括Coinbase Ventures和Electric Capital在內的主要投資者那裡獲得了資金。

Slingshot’s co-founder, Clinton Bembry, is no stranger to successful exits. His previous project, a food-delivery startup, was acquired by Coinbase in 2019.

Slingshot的聯合創始人Clinton Bembry對成功退出並不陌生。他以前的項目是一家食品交付初創公司，於2019年被Coinbase收購。

Now, Bembry and the entire Slingshot team, which ranges from 11 to 50 people, are joining Magic Eden as part of the deal.

現在，Bembry和整個彈弓團隊的範圍從11到50人不等，他們正在加入Magic Eden，作為交易的一部分。

The terms of the acquisition were not disclosed, but talks began late last year and the deal was finalized in recent weeks. The integration is still in progress and will be announced to users later this year.

收購的條款尚未透露，但是去年年底進行了談判，最近幾周達成了交易。集成仍在進行中，並將在今年晚些時候向用戶宣布。

The acquisition was handled internally by both companies, with legal support from Cooley on Slingshot’s side and Cahill on Magic Eden’s side.

在Cooley在Slingshot方面的法律支持下，這兩家公司都在內部進行了此次收購，而Cahill則在Magic Eden的一邊進行。

Magic Eden, which is valued at over $750 million and has raised $147 million in funding from firms like Sequoia and Paradigm, sees this as more than just a product expansion.

Magic Eden的價值超過7.5億美元，已經從紅杉和範式等公司籌集了1.47億美元的資金，而不僅僅是產品擴展。

According to Lu, this is the company’s first serious acquisition and signals a clear ambition to go head-to-head with centralized exchanges by offering a better, fully onchain alternative.

根據LU的說法，這是該公司的首次認真收購，並表明了一個明確的野心，可以通過提供更好，完全佔用的替代方案來與集中交流。

“We are aiming to build the premier neo-centralized crypto trading platform that provides a superior experience to centralized exchanges,” said Lu.

盧說：“我們的目標是建立首屈一指的新居住的加密貨幣交易平台，該平台為集中的交流提供了優越的體驗。”

With the Slingshot integration, Magic Eden’s evolution from an NFT hub into a full-spectrum crypto platform is officially underway.

隨著彈弓集成，Magic Eden從NFT中心到全光譜加密平台的演變正在正式進行。
