Polygon NFT Buyers Hit Record, Overtake Solana in USD Sales
Polygon has been one of the most active chains in terms of non-fungible token (NFT) activity since the beginning of June. Data from CryptoSlam shows that the daily number of unique buyers of Polygon-based NFTs reached an all-time high on June 9 at 45,200.
Meanwhile, NFT sales on Polygon surpassed $3.4 million on June 7, the highest level since mid-January 2024.
Thanks to this increase in NFT activity, Polygon has overtaken Solana in terms of NFT sales over the past week, ranking third on CryptoSlam.
Weekly NFT sales on Polygon jumped 30% to $20.2 million, excluding data associated with wash trading.
Elsewhere, Solana NFT sales fell 8% over the same period to $17.6 million.
Bitcoin remains in the lead with $48.7 million after a 54% rise, thanks to an increase in ordinal volumes.
DappRadar also ranks Polygon 3rd in terms of NFT sales, with Ethereum in the lead and Bitcoin in 4th.
DappRadar recorded $18.2 in Polygon NFT sales during the week, down 16% from the previous week.
The main driver of the increase in Polygon NFT activity is the Moon Girl collection, which generated over $5 million in sales over the last seven days, up 510% for the week.
Moon Girl is a new collection launched in June. It consists of 14,000 elements representing images of rebellious young girls.
Another popular NFT collection on Polygon is Poker Girl, which includes 10,000 NFTs. DappRadar shows it generated nearly $2 million in sales over the past week, ranking third after Moon Girl and Liberty Cats. Poker Girl also launched in early June.
The NFT market was heavily affected by the “crypto winter” following the collapse of UST (and LUNA), FTX and other major crypto platforms. In 2023, Bitcoin ordinals came to the rescue by popularizing the concept of censorship-resistant on-chain NFTs. Today, Bitcoin leads the blockchain rankings in terms of NFT sales.
