Blur to Shut NFT Website as BLUR Sinks and Blend Loans Face Deadline

NFT marketplace Blur will discontinue its website on November 12, 2026, and stop matching new loans through its Blend lending protocol, ending the platform’s main trading and lending services after a prolonged collapse in NFT activity. The decision, announced through Blur’s official X account on October 12, sent its BLUR governance token sharply lower. At the time of writing the token is trading near $0.01280, down 31.82% over the preceding 24 hours. Blur confirmed that its marketplace smart contracts will remain operational on Ethereum and that BLUR will retain control of the protocol’s fee switch.
