The post Rarible Launches New NFT Marketplace With Buyback Rewards Model appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace Rarible launched a redesigned trading platform on Tuesday and rolled out a new system that directs transaction fees into token buybacks.  Rarible told Cointelegraph that the model, which redistributes tokens to active traders, is intended to create a sustainable alternative to earlier NFT marketplace incentive schemes that relied on fixed token allocations.  “Previous designs in the NFT marketplace ecosystem were not sustainable,” Anna Riabokon, head of operations and governance at the RARI Foundation, told Cointelegraph. “They heavily incentivized traders with unsustainable levels of redistribution, only to dry up when their allocations from the token distribution were exhausted.”  Riabokon told Cointelegraph that with the new model, the RARI Foundation will direct all revenue generated from platform transaction fees “back into the hands of the traders.” She claimed this essentially creates a “fee-free” marketplace.  Previous NFT marketplace attempts at token rewards Other NFT marketplaces have experimented with reward programs, often relying on token incentives to boost trading activity.  In 2023, Blur dominated NFT volumes using a points-based system that rewarded traders with future token airdrops. However, while the strategy quickly attracted liquidity, it also fueled wash trading methods, where users bought and sold NFTs back and forth to maximize airdrop rewards without genuine market demand.  NFT platform LooksRare also launched a similar approach, distributing its token to traders as part of an emissions schedule. While the model briefly boosted volumes, much of the activity fell sharply once token rewards lost value.
