Incident Details

The Wall Street Journal reported that “the NFT market is collapsing”, citing data from NonFungible that showed daily average sales of NFTs had dropped 92% from their September peak. They also reported that active wallets had dropped 88% from their November peak, suggesting fewer people were regularly trading NFTs. This may reflect growing disillusionment with a sector that’s increasingly earned its reputation as full of scams and opportunities to lose money.However, the article must be taken with a grain of salt. It’s very difficult to determine in the moment what’s simply a temporary lull rather than a death spiral, and notoriously inconsistent NFT and crypto data sources can tell wildly different stories.
