Crypto’s New Hot It Girl: NFT Sales Soar & Collections Clash!

Oh, darling, despite the crypto market throwing a bit of a tantrum, the NFT scene refuses to be silenced. Sales have strutted up by a dazzling 17.16%, reaching a cheeky $130.7 million. Who says money can’t buy happiness, or at least some digital bragging rights? 💃

According to CryptoSlam’s gossip column, market participation is back with a vengeance—NFT buyers have skyrocketed by 138.96%, totalling 259,264 fabulous individuals. Sellers? Up a respectable 98.69%, totaling 137,347. Transactions, however, took a tiny tumble—down 1.14%, to 1,498,668—like a final curtsy before the curtain falls. 😏

Meanwhile, Bitcoin tiptoed down to the $103,000 mark after flirting with $105,000. Ethereum, on the other hand, is showing some spunk—up 7%, lounging at a sassy $2,500. The globe’s crypto purse now holds a modest $3.29 trillion, sliding slightly from last week’s $3.33 trillion—such a modest decline, one might say it’s just a flirtation. 💅

Ethereum’s Sales Blossom by 21%, Darling

Ethereum continues to be the belle of the blockchain ball, raking in $41.3 million in sales—a charming 21.47% increase. Its wash trading has waned by 14.85%, down to $4.5 million, because even scammers can be a tad modest sometimes. Ethereum still wears its crown, but Bitcoin is hot on its heels with a 53.53% surge to $22.6 million. Polygon, bizarrely, has dipped to third with $14.5 million, down 22.85%, yet its wash trading skyrocketed by 49,260.97%. Now that’s a dramatic flair! 🤭

Mythos Chain is trailing in fourth with $13.3 million, yet sales have shrunk by 19.62%. Solana, bless its heart, rounds out the top five with $8.9 million—back with a vengeance, up 17.31%. Buyer numbers? Well, they’ve gone berserk—Bitcoin up 275.4%, Solana 237.33%, and Polygon a sprightly 233.6%. Looks like everyone’s got itchy fingers! 💅

In collection land, the darling Courtyard on Polygon remains top dog, despite a 31.02% decline to $11.7 million. Sales, transactions, buyers, and sellers have all taken a tumble—no one’s immune to a little market slump. DMarket holds second place with $8.2 million but slipped 28.01%, while Bitcoin’s BRC-20 NFTs leap to third with $7.1 million, boosting by an astonishing 107.81%. Talk about a comeback! CryptoPunks is no slouch—up to fourth with $7 million and nearly doubling its glory (+97.09%).

And enter stage right: XSY Deposit on Avalanche, a fresh face grabbing fifth spot with a roaring 469.59% growth—quite the debut, darling! 🔥
