The NFT market is greatly dominated by Ethereum, all major collections are from Ethereum blockchain like the prominent Bored Ape Yacht Club and famous personalities supporting and being buyers of them. 

The Solana even being visible in front of this giant is big news for the crypto world and this is seen to be the response to the addition of the Trippin’ Ape Tribe.
