Guild of Guardians, Luxemarathoner Surge Amid Fluctuations

Over the past seven days, the NFT market has seen notable shifts in sales, with CryptoPunks leading the pack. The iconic pixelated collection, now owned by Yuga Labs tapped Coinbase strategy for ApeChain products launch, generated $5 million in sales, experiencing a slight 0.15% increase compared to the previous week.

Following close behind was the Guild of Guardians series, which brought in $3.3 million, up 1.69%. Luxemarathoner, a collection based on Binance’s BNB Chain, posted $2.6 million in sales, showing an impressive 472% surge. Meanwhile, Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) saw a 7.98% increase, totaling $2.4 million in sales, while DogeZuki, despite pulling in $2 million, experienced a 23% drop in sales.

Despite these fluctuations, the overall NFT market continues to face challenges, having suffered a 36.6% decline in July and a 40.36% drop in August 2024. However, there are optimistic forecasts for a potential recovery before the year ends. According to on-chain analytics firm Statista, the NFT market is projected to reach over $683.9 million in revenue in 2024, though the annual growth rate is expected to decrease by -11.01%. This suggests that while the market remains volatile, opportunities for growth and resurgence are still on the horizon.
