Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) takes the lead in NFT chain sales volume with 35,226 ETH (~$66.7 million). Mutant Ape Yacht Club (MAYC) secured second place with a transaction amount of 14,947 ETH. Captainz claimed third place in trading volume with 9,948 ETH.
The data provided encouraging indications for the NFT industry, which has faced skepticism amid macroeconomic uncertainties. For instance, as previously covered by CoinChapter, the minimum prices of the most popular NFTs have dropped by more than 90% from their peak values.
What is the reason behind the sudden increase in NFT sales?
The surge in sales volume can be attributed to the restored confidence in cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other leading cryptocurrencies have recently experienced a rally due to the growing excitement surrounding the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs. It appears that NFTs are also capitalizing on this optimistic trend.
