Milady Maker topped CryptoSlam’s daily non-fungible token (NFT) sales chart on Tuesday with US$1.07 million, up from Monday’s US$267,554.
Milady’s rise on Tuesday follows a backlash against Yuga Labs, the owner of the CryptoPunks IP. The company was criticized for announcing a new NFT collection focused on race and gender on Monday, tied to CryptoPunks, the second collection of the day.
Although CryptoPunks owners are disappointed warned if they could sell their NFTs, Milady community members predicted that funds would flow to Milady.
