NFT Market Recap

On Sunday, Opensea traded $36.74 million. Daily volume has now been trading in a tight range between $30 and $40 million for the past 8 days.

Moonbirds Oddities, which were airdropped yesterday to those who had nested their Moonbirds is currently sitting at a 3.38 ETH floor after trading 2,073 ETH yesterday. We don't have many details on the project yet, which will be revealed in July 2022. However, Moonbird holders have already begun to draw parallels with Mutant Ape Yacht Club. As more information is revealed, we will share it.

Milady Maker (0.3555 ETH, -51.8%) had yet another horrible day. Yesterday, we reported that the team member who used to operate under the name "Miya" had stepped back from the project. A thread was released last night that detailed further allegations against the project. This thread quickly spread all over Twitter, leading to further panic and holders dumping their Miladys. We're going to have to watch this one carefully, with some large allegations it's going to be hard for the project to recover.

We also saw the explosion of golbintown.wtf over the past 24 hours. Goblin Town has been a meme on Crypto Twitter over the past few weeks, with multiple goblintown projects popping up. So far, goblintown.wtf has been the most successful, with its hilariously ugly art. The project is currently sitting at a 0.575 ETH floor, after yesterday's heightened trading activity with 4,667 sales totaling 2,213 ETH. We've already seen some big sales of goblins, including this 1 of 1 for 15.69 ETH.

Other movements we have seen include:

  • Chimpers | 1.99 ETH, -12.7%

  • Boki | 0.209 ETH, -9.9%

  • VeeFriends | 8.45 ETH, +10.6%

  • Meebits | 4.73 ETH, +10%
