Bitcoin-based NodeMonkes is Monday’s best-selling non-fungible token (NFT) collection in the 24 hours to noon ET, despite a 46.88% drop in sales to $2.01 million, according to CryptoSlam.
NodeMonkes cooled off after a hot weekend that included a $3.78 million Sunday, its best single-day performance since mid-March.
Two Solana collections, Froganas and Tensorians, took second and third place, respectively, both recording nearly $1.5 million in sales.
The Froganas topped the charts last Friday while the Tensorians topped the market last Wednesday.
Ethereum-based CryptoPunks saw a 152% increase in sales, reaching US$1.23 million.
CryptoPunk 2306 changed hands for 320 ETH, or approximately US$1.095 million, for the 73rd largest CryptoPunk transaction in history. The previous owner held the asset for two years before Monday’s sale.
Other notable moves in the top 10 include the Mythos platform’s DMarket, in sixth place, which saw a 3.57% drop in sales, totaling US$964,921, and an 8.46% drop in transactions.
Seventh-ranked Ethereum’s Pudgy Penguins saw a significant surge, with sales soaring 1,717.60% to US$731,910 and transactions up 1,500%.
Avalanche’s Dokyo and Ethereum’s Bored Ape Yacht Club both faced declining sales and transactions, with Dokyo’s sales falling by 19.29% and Bored Ape Yacht Club’s by 18.06%.
The Bored Ape Yacht Club firmly maintains its second place in all-time sales with US$3.12 billion, but its sales have slowed recently.
Monday was the fourth case in April where the collection failed to reach $1 million in daily sales.
