Blur, once the largest marketplace for trading Ethereum NFTs, will shut down its blur.io website on November 12, 2026, after monthly trading volume collapsed more than 99% from its March 2023 peak. The team framed the change in its October 12 announcement as a frontend deprecation rather than a full shutdown: the on-chain marketplace protocol will remain operational, and BLUR tokenholders will keep control of the fee switch that could turn trading fees on.
