Rarible announced its official launch on Solana, featuring Claynosaurz as the platform's first highlighted NFT collection. In the coming days and weeks, Rarible will continue to onboard more Solana ecosystem NFT projects. Rarible stated that the team has spent the past several months on development, testing, and launch preparation, while also engaging with multiple NFT communities within the Solana ecosystem to understand the stories, cultures, and community needs of different projects. The feedback received has already influenced several current product decisions on the platform. Rarible noted that the previously launched Gacha Station on Solana was not a standalone feature, but rather an early attempt ahead of this launch. Rarible said that the current launch content is only a foundational version, and will continue to add projects, features, marketplace experience optimizations, content, and community activities in the future, working together with the Solana ecosystem to advance platform development.
Odaily, Jupiter, a decentralized exchange on the Solana ecosystem, has launched the Jupiter Gacha beta, allowing collectors to purchase authentic, graded Pokémon and One Piece cards and trade them on-chain.Jupiter stated that each "card pull" purchased by a user corresponds to a physical card that is certified and encased in a plastic grading slab, while simultaneously generating an on-chain token, enabling free trading on Jupiter.This model combines physical collectible cards with on-chain liquidity: the cards themselves are real, graded cards, while the on-chain tokens represent their ownership or trading credentials, reducing the friction of transfer and settlement in collectible trading.
