Magic Eden通过主要的弹弓收购进行加密交易

魔术伊甸园（Magic Eden）正在远离NFT，并将目光投向主导OnChain代币交易空间。

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

Solana NFT市场Magic Eden通过收购Slingshot Finance（一个以移动设备为中心的交易应用程序）进行加密交易。

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.

该举报由信息报告并由魔术伊甸园（Magic Eden）确认，标志着该公司的新篇章，因为它扩展了NFT，以提供更广泛的加密服务。

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以其光滑的用户体验和多链功能而闻名，使用户可以无缝地在不同的区块链上进行交易。该应用程序支持数百万个令牌，并在包括Solana，Ethereum和Bitcoin在内的十个链条上运行。

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的吸引力在于它可以简化原本混乱的过程的能力。通常，交易者需要在跨连锁店交易时选择一个链条，桥梁代币，支付汽油费以及管理多个钱包，但是弹弓在后台处理所有这些钱包。

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

这种专注于易用性的关注与Magic Eden的目标是使每个人都可以使用加密货币的目标，无论其技术背景如何。

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.

尽管NFT仍然是Magic Eden DNA的核心部分，但市场一直在寻找为社区和更广泛的加密生态系统服务的新方法。

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

随着NFT行业的交易量放缓，Magic Eden正在通过扩展到新领域来适应。

“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.

“我们仍然相信NFT的长期潜力，尤其是在诸如稀缺和数字所有权之类的收藏品等领域，” Magic Eden的首席执行官Jack Lu说。

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

“但是我们还看到需要现实世界实用程序和服务来推动下一波加密货币的采用。”

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.

弹弓交易加速了Magic Eden进入成熟的令牌交易。尽管该平台已经引入了跨链掉期，但Slingshot急剧扩展了这些功能，并提供了更强大和直观的交易体验。

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

Slingshot成立于2020年，已积累了近一百万用户，并从包括Coinbase Ventures和Electric Capital在内的主要投资者那里获得了资金。

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的联合创始人Clinton Bembry对成功退出并不陌生。他以前的项目是一家食品交付初创公司，于2019年被Coinbase收购。

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

现在，Bembry和整个弹弓团队的范围从11到50人不等，他们正在加入Magic Eden，作为交易的一部分。

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.

收购的条款尚未透露，但是去年年底进行了谈判，最近几周达成了交易。集成仍在进行中，并将在今年晚些时候向用户宣布。

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，这两家公司都在内部进行了此次收购，而Cahill则在Magic Eden的一边进行。

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的价值超过7.5亿美元，已经从红杉和范式等公司筹集了1.47亿美元的资金，而不仅仅是产品扩展。

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.

根据LU的说法，这是该公司的首次认真收购，并表明了一个明确的野心，可以通过提供更好，完全占用的替代方案来与集中交流。

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

卢说：“我们的目标是建立首屈一指的新居住的加密货币交易平台，该平台为集中的交流提供了优越的体验。”

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

随着弹弓集成，Magic Eden从NFT中心到全光谱加密平台的演变正在正式进行。
