NFT trading platform X2Y2 announces it will cease operations, officially closing on April 30
According to Odaily Planet Daily, NFT trading platform X2Y2 stated, "After three years of brilliance and $5.6 billion in trading volume, X2Y2 will officially close as an NFT marketplace on April 30, 2025." The X2Y2 contract will remain active, but the platform itself will stop operations. The CEO of X2Y2 stated, "NFT trading volume has shrunk by 90% from its peak. The life and death of a marketplace depend on network effects, and after three years of striving for the top, it is time to let go and build something with more lasting value.
But this is not a farewell—it's a transformation. Over the past year, we have deeply explored the AI field, studying how it intersects with crypto technology in powerful new ways. We are building something entirely new: a decentralized way to provide yield, driven by AI. It is decentralized, innovative, and aims to create value cyclically—not just chase trends. The X2Y2 token is closely related to our NFT vision, and I won't sugarcoat the reality—this change may affect its price. But I believe our next chapter will create something of greater long-term value."
