The upward trend in volume can be seen across the NFT market, with many other projects showing solid signs of volume. In the more popular segment, the Bored Apes collection saw a 300 ETH sale, whereas Crypto Punks saw an 87.9 ETH sale in the open market in the past 24 hours.
On the other hand, NFT-based DeFi projects like Bend DAO issued over 300 new loans against BAYC. NFT-based AMMs like SudoSwap have also witnessed a surge in volume recently, as the seven-day volume has crossed $200,000 on the protocol. The demand for NFT collection has not remained limited to the Ethereum Chain, with Solana showing signs of an increase in volume. Amongst the Solana NFT ecosystem, DeGods and y00ts account for almost 50% of that volume.
On the Flipside
- Crypto markets have shown signs of relative strength this year, but the uptrend in the volume of NFT markets should not be seen as a change in market conditions. NFT collectors should exercise caution while making purchases.
