Are NFTs still active?
NFT -volumes and speculation have still fallen more than 95% across the board. Only the top collections are still changing hand. However, NFTs have not completely forgotten. NFT -Loingen have been abandoned because most collections have quickly deleted 99% of their value.
After the Refsea re -launched, the NFT Marketplaats reached its highest volume Since 2023, PFP/Avatar collections are still the most active, followed by NFT and Utility NFT.
The biggest obstacle for NFT activity was the lack of market places, especially in the months when OpenSea still built its new version. Telegram Collectible Gifts also collected their activity after the launch of a special trading platform, the Telegram Gifts Marktplaats.
The telegram collections depend on rarity, which now led to a much higher appreciation for some stickers. Initially, the articles were beaten at extremely low prices. The availability of liquidity and an open market, as well as the opportunity to start Small, puts NFT -Swaps on Ton new life. Collectable gifts were hit on the chain for the first time from February, so that they gradually expand their influence, because they are currently about to be an even greater outbreak on telegram and other social media.
