The non-fungible token (NFT) martketplace Magic Eden will begin sharing a part of its income with holders of the ME token.

The company said that 15% of its total revenue will go to tokenholders. Half of this amount will be used to buy back ME tokens, and the other half will be given as staking rewards in USDC.

The payout will depend on how much ME a user stakes and for how long. Tokenholders will be able to claim their USDC rewards every month starting in March.
