🛒Trend Buying & trading
How to Own, Trade, or Bid on a Trend
The Buying & Offers section explains how users can discover, purchase, and make offers on trends within the Xtrends marketplace. Every transaction is on-chain, transparent, and handled automatically through Solana smart contracts.
🔍 Search & Discover Trends
The first step is to explore available trends in the Trending Hub.
You can:
Browse by All, Just Bought, Launching Soon, or Pinned tabs
Filter trends by status, volume, or price
Search specific hashtags (e.g.,
#AIRevolution,#SolanaPump)
Each trend card clearly shows its state:
Available
Unowned, open for purchase
Buy Now (1 SOL)
Owned (Inactive)
Owned but not yet launched
Make Offer
Launched
Active coin, trading live
Trade
You’ll instantly see whether a trend can be bought, offered on, or traded — directly from the search results.
💰 Buy Trend Flow
When a trend is marked Available, any user can buy it instantly.
Step-by-Step:
1️⃣ Click Buy Trend 2️⃣ Confirm the 1 SOL purchase transaction in your connected wallet 3️⃣ Wait a few seconds for Solana block confirmation 4️⃣ Once successful, the system:
Mints and transfers the Trend NFT to your wallet
Updates ownership status to Owned by You
Logs your purchase on-chain
You are now the exclusive owner of that trend — with full rights to launch or resell it.
💬 Make an Offer
If a trend is already owned, you can bid to buy it from the current owner.
How It Works:
Enter your offer amount in SOL
Approve the transaction (funds move into escrow)
The offer appears under Bids Received for the owner
The owner can accept or decline anytime
If accepted:
Your SOL transfers automatically to the seller
The Trend NFT transfers to you
Ownership updates on-chain instantly
If declined or expired:
Your SOL is automatically refunded from escrow.
Offers give traders and creators a transparent way to negotiate ownership — all handled by smart contracts.
🔒 Offer Rules & Escrow Logic
The offer system is fully automated and secure.
Escrow Deposit
Your SOL offer is locked in smart contract until resolved
Acceptance
Instantly swaps NFT for SOL
Rejection / Expiry
Refunds your SOL to wallet
No Manual Transfers
Entire process is trustless and on-chain
Important Rules:
Multiple users can make offers on the same trend
Owners can only accept one active offer
Offers expire automatically after a fixed time window (e.g., 48 hours)
No middlemen, no disputes — the blockchain handles every offer transparently.
✅ Buy Confirmation & Transaction Status
After confirming a purchase or offer:
A Buy Confirmation screen appears showing transaction hash, wallet address, and success message
Status changes in the system immediately:
Available → Owned (after purchase)
Offer Sent → Pending / Accepted / Declined (for bids)
You can track transactions anytime in your Solana explorer link
Example:
