Do you think Blur will overtake Opensea

[GreatArkansas]

There is always the possibility that Blur will surpass Opensea or beat. Blur got a better user experience and good UI and as I saw in their articles that OpenSea receives a 2.5% fee on all secondary sales.
While Blur charges no transaction fees and advises buyers to pay a royalty rate of 0.5% by default, though this can be changed or set to 0.

We will still not know what will be the future updates of these 2 NFT platforms, maybe some of them will adjust to compete with the other one. It's still early to decide here. Blur is new platform while Opensea is already here for long time.

I fully admit at the moment Blur shows their accessibility to users as well but the experience is much better than opensea, maybe next time opensea will have some plan to change the structure as well. as a way to re-engage users to re-engage. As well as the competition to regain market share in the NFT segment that both are exploiting, I have also heard about some rumors from the past several months about the marketability of opensea through the airdrop campaign for users. users, but I really don't appreciate the ability this will help draw users back to them, while Blur still shows that they are attractive.

Oh, fees of the marketplace totally explain the traffic. I thought that they were just airdrop hunters. This is good news as longer they keep having lower fees, more pressure it gives to opensea to lower their fees. That's really the only way to compete if network effect moves to blur. This means that their token could actually be worth something. I must take another look at their model.

blur is still in phase of promotion, unlike its competition that's already seeking profit, you could guess which one gonna have the massive growth.
we still don't know whether blur could retain its users after the promotion done, so it's still rather too early to decide which one gonna win.

sounds like that could be the main reason blur smart contract is having so much of traffic, after all 2.5% fee is not some measly and I think it also didn't include the royalty fee that an NFT maker could be having.
considering that ethereum fee is also tremendously high nowadays, it make sense all the nft airdrops and the other like nft game assets are moving over to blur for NFT marketplace because it could save their fortunes.
it seems blur gonna be really tough contender for opensea considering it also has really good funding from reputed venture capitals in which in this case is venturing in NFT fields trying to end opensea domination.
prominently in ethereum blockchain in which have so many NFT being released every day.

I don't think opensea will do that because it just shows that they are losing their originality. The public will know if they try to copy blur or not so if I were them it's best to just have the existing structure. I'm sure they still have a loyal fans and they love what they currently see so modifying it might only affect them.

If opensea do an airdrop, they might attract users but that will only be for temporary. Once the people get their share, they can sell it and go back on their previous favorites. It will only be a waste of money for the company. The only thing that opensea can do is to create a new feature which doesn't exit yet on any other NFT platforms. That might help them magnet users that could stay on them for a long time.

opensea still have much more traffic nowadays as I see, why? because opensea smart contract still far above blur smart contract in term of transaction you could see it in etherscan and decide yourself.
in short, it still haven't overtaken yet.

hopefully though it's not some short lived promotion but instead the fee is fixed so that it gonna make the other competition rethink their decision twice, after all, higher fee just means lower user interacting with smart contract and therefore the platform losing customers.
