The Mocaverse project token, MOCA, has begun trading on well-known centralized exchanges, including KuCoin, Gate, HTX, Coinlist, Bitget, MEXC, and Bitmart.

Trading began with a MOCA rate of $0.088. Listing on several major centralized exchanges is expected to increase MOCA’s visibility and significant trading volume, attracting a wider audience of investors and users.

Mocaverse will also introduce a staking feature alongside a Token Generation Event (TGE). Users can stake MOCA tokens to receive staking power or “soft stake.” MOCA Saving 1.0 participants will be able to accumulate staking power at a rate of 0.000001 per second.

“Staking Power grants holders exclusivity in terms of experiences and rewards. Higher Staking Power means better access to reward pools.”

A 50% early staking boost will be available from July 11 to July 25 to encourage early participation. However, withdrawing MOCA coin from staking during this period will reset the bonus staking power to zero.

DappRadar blockchain analyst Sara Gherghelas emphasized that Blur remains the most popular NFT platform, with a 31% market share. However, the platform has lost almost 50% of its dominance since the last quarter.

Magic Eden is in second place, having succeeded thanks to Ordinals, which increased the platform’s dominance from 17% to 22%. OpenSea ranks third, although Gherghelas notes that the trading platform leads as the most popular NFT marketplace in terms of sales volume with a market share of 12%.

“The top 5 NFT collections by trading volume this quarter remain largely unchanged from the previous quarter, with the notable exceptions by Runestone and fantasy.top. Both of these collections have enjoyed incredible success and popularity in Q2 2024.”
