Rarible statistics at a glance
Rarible’s numbers show a marketplace business that has expanded across chains, products, and partner launches rather than relying on a single growth lever.
The strongest pattern in the dataset is breadth: chain integrations, branded marketplaces, art drops, and marketplace case studies all point to a platform that is trying to scale both infrastructure and demand at the same time.

Rarible statistics overview
The dataset combines corporate recap figures, product capability notes, and success stories. That mix is useful because it shows both the platform’s scale and the kinds of outcomes it has delivered for partners.
Here is a compact snapshot of the most comparable figures.

The main story is not a single outlier metric. It is the combination of platform reach, launch velocity, and repeatable marketplace tooling.
Rarible growth by year
Rarible’s year-over-year story in the dataset is best read as a sequence of product and ecosystem expansion milestones.
2024: a year of platform breadth
In 2024, Rarible recorded 9 chain integrations and 8 unique branded marketplaces launched (2024 Recap: Our Best Year Yet?). Those two figures together matter more than either one alone. Chain integrations expand where the platform can operate, while branded marketplaces show how that footprint gets packaged into user-facing destinations.
The same recap says Rarible shipped over 200 art drops in 2024 (2024 Recap: Our Best Year Yet?). That is a strong sign that the platform was not just adding infrastructure. It was also actively using that infrastructure to launch collectible experiences.
The DEGEN campaign adds another layer. It included 15 different artist drops and drove over 20K mints (2024 Recap: Our Best Year Yet?). For a campaign-style release, those are meaningful engagement signals because they combine participation from multiple artists with a concrete onchain action.
2023: marketplace and community scale
The 2023 recap numbers show that Rarible was already operating at sizable scale before the 2024 expansion push.
- Mattel’s marketplace reached 215,000+ wallets trading Hot Wheels and Barbie NFTs (Rarible in 2023: Recap).
- Citizens of Mantle generated over 215,000 $MNT in trading volume (Rarible in 2023: Recap).
- The R is for Royalties open edition was minted over 65,000 times (Rarible in 2023: Recap).
- Rarible had generated 4,600+ community marketplaces across Ethereum and Polygon by January 2023 (Rarible in 2023: Recap).
Those 2023 figures are useful because they show three different layers of activity: user wallets, trading value, and mint volume. That combination suggests the platform was already proving that it could support both branded launches and community-scale creation.
Side-by-side view
| Year | Main activity | Notable figure | Source label |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | Community marketplace expansion | 4,600+ community marketplaces | Rarible in 2023: Recap |
| 2023 | Brand-led trading activity | 215,000+ wallets | Rarible in 2023: Recap |
| 2023 | Open edition demand | 65,000+ mints | Rarible in 2023: Recap |
| 2024 | Chain expansion | 9 chain integrations | 2024 Recap: Our Best Year Yet? |
| 2024 | Marketplace launch velocity | 8 branded marketplaces | 2024 Recap: Our Best Year Yet? |
| 2024 | Launch output | 200+ art drops | 2024 Recap: Our Best Year Yet? |
| 2024 | Campaign engagement | 20K+ mints | 2024 Recap: Our Best Year Yet? |
That table makes one point clear: Rarible’s growth is distributed across creation, trading, and platform expansion, not concentrated in one product line.
Marketplace scale and user activity
Several figures in the dataset are especially useful for understanding how large Rarible’s marketplace business has become.
Core platform scale
Rarible.com case studies list $300M GMV for the main marketplace (Rarible.com Custom NFT Marketplace Success Story). The same source lists 1M monthly active users, 506K X followers, and over 1,200,000 subscribers across socials and newsletter (Rarible.com Custom NFT Marketplace Success Story).
These figures show a platform with both transactional and audience scale. GMV measures the value moving through the marketplace. Monthly active users reflect ongoing participation. Social and newsletter subscribers suggest a substantial owned-and-followed audience around the brand.
Marketplace success stories
The partner examples are also revealing because they show how the platform performs in specific launches.
- Cryptoys’ RaribleX marketplace delivered $69K+ GMV, 2.7K transactions, and 12K visits (Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX).
- LightLink’s marketplace recorded 13K visits, 300K LL in trading volume, and $32K GMV (Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX).
- Celo’s Celosphere marketplace generated $25K+ GMV in its first month, reached around 70K users, and handled more than 86K onchain transactions (Celo Custom NFT Marketplace Success Story).
- Mintle reached 27K active wallets, supported 59+ collections, and drove about $500K in volume (Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX).
- Mattel’s digital collectibles marketplace generated $1.96M+ GMV, served 215K+ users, and processed 79K+ transactions (Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX).
- Animoca Brands’ marketplace had 8.3K+ users, logged 5.9K+ bids, and distributed 37K+ $RARI (Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX).
- McFarlane’s RaribleX marketplace generated $1M+ GMV, averaged $50 per item, and hosted 14 drops (Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX).
Compact comparison table
| Marketplace | Outcome | Supporting metric | Source label |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cryptoys | $69K+ GMV | 2.7K transactions | Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX |
| LightLink | $32K GMV | 13K visits | Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX |
| Celosphere | $25K+ GMV in first month | 86K+ transactions | Celo Custom NFT Marketplace Success Story |
| Mintle | About $500K in volume | 27K active wallets | Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX |
| Mattel | $1.96M+ GMV | 215K+ users | Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX |
| Animoca Brands | 37K+ $RARI distributed | 5.9K+ bids | Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX |
| McFarlane | $1M+ GMV | 14 drops | Web3 Marketplace Success Stories - RaribleX |
That comparison suggests Rarible’s marketplace products can support very different scale profiles. Some launches are measured in thousands of visits or transactions, while others cross into seven-figure GMV.
Why the activity mix matters
The same platform can show different types of traction depending on the use case:
- Visit counts help explain top-of-funnel reach.
- Transaction counts show active marketplace use.
- GMV reflects economic throughput.
- Wallet counts and user counts reveal participation breadth.
- Bids and mints show engagement depth in auctions and drops.
Rarible’s dataset includes all five categories, which is a sign that its business is not dependent on one narrow usage pattern.
Chain support and aggregation reach
One of the most striking areas in the dataset is chain coverage.
Rarible currently supports 21 blockchains (Which blockchains does Rarible support?). That is a broad operating surface for a marketplace platform, especially when compared with the more focused chain counts used in some of the product-specific features.
The same dataset says Rarible aggregates listings from 5 marketplaces (What marketplaces does Rarible aggregate listings from?). That matters because aggregation can increase discoverability without forcing users to visit each marketplace separately.
Practical interpretation
At a high level, the chain and aggregation figures point to two layers of reach:
- Protocol reach through multi-chain support.
- Discovery reach through aggregated listings.
The platform’s 2024 recap also says it integrated Aptos, Moonbeam, Lisk, and Palm among its chain additions (2024 Recap: Our Best Year Yet?). That specific list helps show the 9-chain total was not abstract. It included named ecosystems with their own communities and market dynamics.
The dataset also notes that Kroma had already surpassed $600K in GMV after joining Rarible (New Chains Have Arrived at Rarible Marketplace). That is a useful indicator of how chain expansion can quickly connect to real economic activity.
What chain coverage can unlock
A larger chain footprint can help a marketplace in several ways:
- It gives brands more options for where to launch.
- It makes it easier to support different collector communities.
- It allows the platform to connect with new liquidity pools.
- It can reduce friction for projects that already live on a given chain.
Rarible’s numbers support all four ideas without requiring speculation beyond the dataset.
Branded marketplace and creator economics
The dataset shows that Rarible’s marketplace tooling is designed to support more than simple listing pages.
Branded marketplace capabilities
Community marketplace creators receive 100% of marketplace fees on Rarible-built marketplaces (How do I create a community marketplace?). They can also set the community fee to 0% (How do I create a community marketplace?). Those two facts are important because they show how the platform can be tuned for partner economics.
Multiple collections are supported on 5 blockchains: Ethereum, Polygon, Celosphere, Base, and Aptos (Multiple Collections). There is also no limit to the number of collections that can be added to a community marketplace (Multiple Collections).
That is a flexible setup for brands and communities that want to combine multiple drops or collections under one experience.
Launch constraints and requirements
The dataset also includes a practical detail: listing a collection on Rarible requires 1,000 RARI tokens on Base (Listing a Collection on rarible.com). That kind of requirement is worth noting because it shows the platform has clear onboarding rules, not just open-ended publishing.
How the economics fit together
Taken together, the numbers suggest a simple structure:
- Rarible provides the infrastructure.
- Brands or communities can launch on branded marketplaces.
- Creators can retain meaningful fee control.
- Multiple collections can live in one marketplace.
- The platform can span multiple chains while still supporting aggregation.
That model helps explain how the partner examples in the dataset can range from small launches to large enterprise-style marketplaces.
Fast facts from the dataset
At a glance
- $300M GMV on Rarible.com’s main marketplace (Rarible.com Custom NFT Marketplace Success Story)
- 1M monthly active users on Rarible.com (Rarible.com Custom NFT Marketplace Success Story)
- 1.24 million users at RaribleFUN launch (Introducing: A New Era of Rarible)
- 15 million NFTs on RaribleFUN (Introducing: A New Era of Rarible)
- 4,600+ community marketplaces by January 2023 (Rarible in 2023: Recap)
- 21 blockchains currently supported (Which blockchains does Rarible support?)
- 5 marketplaces aggregated for listings (What marketplaces does Rarible aggregate listings from?)
Why these numbers are notable together
The platform’s audience and product numbers reinforce each other.
A marketplace with 1M monthly active users and $300M GMV can justify deeper product investment. A system that has already supported 4,600+ community marketplaces can more plausibly launch 8 unique branded marketplaces in a single year. A chain-support footprint of 21 blockchains makes the 2024 expansion pace more believable because the platform is already built for multi-network operation.
The strongest takeaway is not that Rarible has one standout metric. It is that the dataset shows a broad operating system for NFT commerce, with measurable activity across launches, chains, users, fees, and marketplace economics (multiple source labels as cited above).
