Immutable 是区块链游戏和不可替代代币 (NFT) 领域著名的第 2 层网络，该网络已宣布关闭其 NFT 市场。

Immutable, a layer-2 network renowned in the blockchain gaming and non-fungible token (NFT) space, has announced the closure of its NFT marketplace. The company will be winding down the marketplace's operations on August 13, 2024, to concentrate on expanding its ecosystem through strategic partnerships.

Immutable 是在区块链游戏和不可替代代币 (NFT) 领域享有盛誉的第 2 层网络，该网络已宣布关闭其 NFT 市场。该公司将于 2024 年 8 月 13 日结束该市场的运营，专注于通过战略合作伙伴关系扩展其生态系统。

The Immutable Marketplace was initially created to showcase the capabilities of the Immutable software development kit (SDK). Since its launch, numerous projects have been developed using the SDK, many of which have thrived.

Immutable Marketplace 最初创建是为了展示 Immutable 软件开发工具包 (SDK) 的功能。自推出以来，已经使用该 SDK 开发了许多项目，其中许多项目蓬勃发展。

Immutable now aims to support these external platforms more effectively, urging the community to explore other marketplaces within the Immutable ecosystem.

Immutable 现在的目标是更有效地支持这些外部平台，敦促社区探索 Immutable 生态系统内的其他市场。

Immutable has assured users that their assets will remain secure and accessible on the blockchain. These assets are linked to wallet addresses and will stay with users regardless of the marketplace or game they choose to use.

Immutable 向用户保证，他们的资产将在区块链上保持安全且可访问。这些资产与钱包地址相关联，并且无论用户选择使用哪个市场或游戏，都将保留在用户手中。

The network also highlighted the use of a global order book, which ensures that listings for buying or selling NFTs will be visible across multiple marketplaces that utilize the same order book.

该网络还强调了全球订单簿的使用，这确保了购买或销售 NFT 的列表在使用同一订单簿的多个市场中可见。

The decision to close the marketplace comes amid a significant downturn in NFT sales volumes. In the second quarter of 2024, NFT sales volumes dropped by 45% compared to the previous quarter. The first quarter of 2024 saw digital collectibles reach a volume of $4.1 billion, but this momentum did not continue.

关闭市场的决定是在 NFT 销量大幅下滑的情况下做出的。 2024 年第二季度，NFT 销量环比下降 45%。 2024 年第一季度，数字收藏品的交易量达到 41 亿美元，但这种势头并没有持续下去。

The second quarter recorded a sales volume of $2.24 billion, the lowest since the third quarter of 2023. July 2024 further marked the lowest monthly sales volume for NFTs, with only $429 million recorded.

第二季度销售额为 22.4 亿美元，为 2023 年第三季度以来的最低水平。2024 年 7 月进一步创下 NFT 月销售额最低纪录，仅为 4.29 亿美元。

Despite the declining sales volumes, industry professionals remain optimistic about the future of NFTs. Web3 experts, including CryptoSlam founder Randy Wasinger, have expressed confidence that NFTs are “here to stay,” emphasizing their long-term potential despite current market challenges.

尽管销量下降，但行业专业人士仍对 NFT 的未来持乐观态度。包括 CryptoSlam 创始人兰迪·瓦辛格 (Randy Wasinger) 在内的 Web3 专家都表示相信 NFT 将“继续存在”，并强调尽管当前存在市场挑战，但它们的长期潜力。

Immutable’s strategic shift reflects a broader trend in the NFT market, where companies are adapting to changing conditions and focusing on sustainable growth and ecosystem development.

Immutable 的战略转变反映了 NFT 市场的更广泛趋势，即公司正在适应不断变化的条件并专注于可持续增长和生态系统发展。
