Bored Ape and Cryptopunk Values Wobble — During the Last Month, Blue-Chip NFT Floor Values Dropped Over 50% – Markets and Prices Bitcoin News

While the crypto economy has dropped considerably in value during the last few weeks, seven-day statistics indicate non-fungible token (NFT) sales are down 17.32% lower than last week. Data also shows NFT floor values have tumbled a great deal during the past month as some of the most popular NFTs are selling for a lot less these days.

The Once Bubbly NFT Industry Faces Its First Crypto Bear Market, Non-Fungible Token Interest Is Down and Sales Slide

NFTs have made their mark over the last 12 months raking in billions of dollars in sales, but the NFT trend is currently experiencing its first crypto bear market. The market carnage during the past few weeks has taken a toll on NFT sales and the top floor prices stemming from some of the most popular collections.

Worldwide GT data covering the search query “NFT” from the week of January 16-22 to May 22-28, 2022.

Interest in non-fungible tokens has waned as the search query “NFT” has dropped significantly according to Google Trends (GT) data. During the week of January 16-22, worldwide GT data for the search term “NFT” hit the top score of 100, but this week the search query term is 25.

While NFTs are still selling, weekly sales are down 17.32% lower than the week prior and NFT sales measured last week were down 64% lower than the week before. It’s safe to say by looking at market metrics, that the Terra LUNA and UST fiasco impacted the NFT space as well.

Last week a great number of blue-chip NFT collections saw floor values drop and today the values are much lower. Moreover, a few popular NFT collections reached all-time highs in terms of floor values just 34 days ago, and current statistics show they now sell for a lot less.
