The second week of June sees fluctuating NFT trade in the market. Amid the ups and downs, the market is open to new trends with considerably increased NFT activities. Despite a trading low of $68.79M this week, Ethereum’s performance shines out compared to other cryptocurrencies.
Let’s dig into the weekly NFT report to grab more insight.
1) NFT Market Cap & Volume Goes Down With Trading Volume Displaying Opposing Trends
This week showed contrasting changes in the NFT market. The market cap fell by 5.41% to $3.82 million. Despite the decline in market size, the trading volume for NFTs increased by 20.20% to 115.38K ETH. This indicates a shift in market dynamics, with increased trading activity but a lower overall market valuation.
2) Holders Are Holding
This second week of June shows some interesting trends in the NFT market. It was overall a mixed trend this week. NFT holders increased slightly to 4,511,359M, representing a growth rate of 0.64% compared to the previous week. Although the increase is relatively small, it can be identified as an indication of continued interest in NFTs. However, the number of NFT traders declined this week, with the count dropping to 59,228K, reflecting a decrease of 2.61%.
Despite the slight ups and downs, the number of buyers experienced a modest increase of 0.63%, reaching 33,596K, suggesting that there is still a demand for NFTs among a specific market segment. In comparison, the number of sellers decreased by 5.80% to 37,279K.
3) NFT OpenSea Trading Witnesses a Fall This Week
Several essential parameters for the NFT trading activity on the OpenSea platform have significantly decreased over the past week. A decrease in the number of people actively using the platform to trade NFTs can be seen in the total number of unique active wallets (UAW), which fell by 6.31% to 14.53K. 33.15K transactions occurred over the week, a 4.34% decrease in the number of transactions.
Additionally, the trading volume of $3.32M fell significantly from the previous week by 7.95%, indicating a fall in the total value of NFTs bought and sold on the platform. The smart contract balance decreased by 4.45% to $60.39k, possibly indicating a decline in overall demand.
4) Mixed Trading Indicators In Blur Activity Continue
This week’s trading activity in the Blur market showcased a downward trend across most key indicators. Firstly, UAW decreased by 2.25% to 15.13k compared to the previous week. Similarly, the number of transactions experienced a decline of 4.41%, falling to 47.62k of the prior week’s figure of 49.81k. This decrease indicates a decrease in trading activity this week, as fewer transactions were executed than the previous week. In contrast to the decline in UAW and the number of transactions, the trade volume witnessed a significant increase of 12.76%.
The trade volume for this week reached $108.96M, reflecting a substantial rise in the total transaction value. This surge in trade volume suggests that although fewer transactions, they involved more significant amounts of traded assets. However, it’s important to note that the smart contract balance experienced a considerable drop of 9.1% during this week. The smart contract balance decreased from $118.36M to $112.48M, indicating a decrease in the funds held within smart contracts.
5) Solana NFT
The trading volume for Solana NFTs has climbed this week to $14.35 million, a gain of 0.98% from the previous week. This rise in trading activity shows a positive shift in market dynamics and demonstrates that investors and collectors still believe in Solana NFTs despite the SEC identifying the token as a potential security.

6) Mixed Trends On Polygon NFTs
This week’s trading volume of Polygon NFTs saw several changes across different platforms. The average NFT price, starting with OpenSea, dropped to $17.41, a 4.72% fall. This fall could partly be due to the drop in the price of MATIC. However, there was an increase in traders, who increased by 7.08% to reach 46,385k. Despite an increase in the number of traders, the trading volume fell significantly by 32.08% to $1.98M.
