Trading volume on OpenSea up 724% to $32.3 million

With Abstract hitting OpenSea, and point farming still being a thing, OpenSea managed to grow its trading volume by 724%. In total, the NFT marketplace managed to process 1.19 million sales for a total volume of $32.39 million.

The biggest sales happen in collections like BAYC, Art Blocks and artworks by XCOPY. However, the most sold NFT collections are all on Base and Abstract. The top 5 collections are responsible for over 800,000 sold assets, which is roughly 75% of all sold assets.

Despite these high numbers, these five collections were good for only $11.5 million in volume. So in short, 75% of all sold NFT were responsible for 35% of the total trading volume. This highlights the low value of the most traded collections. Chimpers have the lowest average price at $6.50, while Abstra Universe NFTs go for $19.84 on average.
