Milady Maker leads daily NFT sales, CryptoPunks records 5 transactions despite backlash

Milady Maker, a prominent figure in the NFT space, dominated the daily sales chart on CryptoSlam with an impressive $1.07 million in NFT sales on Tuesday. This marked a significant increase from the previous day’s sales of $267,554. The surge in Milady’s sales came amidst backlash faced by Yuga Labs, the owner of the popular CryptoPunks IP.

Yuga Labs received criticism for announcing a new NFT collection focused on race and gender, which was tied to the CryptoPunks brand. This announcement led to disappointed CryptoPunks owners threatening to sell their NFTs. However, members of the Milady community anticipated that these funds would flow into Milady’s collection.

CryptoPunks, despite the backlash, still managed to secure the second spot on the sales chart with $737,526 in sales. However, it only recorded five sales transactions on Tuesday. On the other hand, it saw 14 transfers, indicating that many CryptoPunk owners were moving their assets. This shift in ownership is a notable development, as the collection had its highest number of transfers since late March.

DMarket closely followed in third place with a daily sales volume of $735,546. This platform saw 3,680 unique buyers and sellers, contributing to a total of 28,835 transactions. Other notable collections on the chart were Fantasy Top and The Captainz, ranking fourth and fifth, respectively.

Fantasy Top achieved a daily sales volume of $652,892 with 1,726 unique buyers, while The Captainz garnered $618,594 with 33 unique buyers. These numbers highlight the continued interest and activity within the NFT market across different collections.

In terms of blockchains, the Ethereum blockchain, home to Milady, CryptoPunks, and The Captainz, led the way with $8.47 million in NFT sales. This marked a significant jump from the previous day’s sales of $6.09 million, reflecting a 39% increase. In contrast, the Bitcoin blockchain reported a daily sales volume of $5.85 million with 1,798 unique buyers, also representing an increase from the previous day’s sales.

Other blockchains like Polygon and Mythos Chain also reported substantial daily sales volumes, with $1.60 million and $758,947.38, respectively. This showcases the diverse and active nature of the NFT market across various blockchain platforms.
