The Runes platform introduces innovative features to improve the buying experience.
These include the Table View, which allows users to customize their purchasing by selecting specific lots and prices, which enhances the traditional card view used for Bitcoin BRC-20 token transactions.
The upcoming Swap View will offer an even simpler transaction process by automatically matching users with the best buying options based on the BTC amount they wish to spend.
While the current version of the platform does not support the minting or “etching” of Runes, Magic Eden plans to introduce these capabilities in future updates, as it will collaborate with Luminex.
As the NFT marketplace continues developing its platform, the features will likely enhance its market influence and user engagement.
Magic Eden has already established itself in the Bitcoin space through its support of Bitcoin Ordinals.
