💹 Market Data
OneLand 7D data shows 10-project lands cap ending the week up 0.21% to 666,221 ETH, or +5.65% to $1.261b.
It was a positive week for both crypto and NFTs alike, with $ETH up 5.48% to $1,894.03, and total NFT cap rising 6.64%.
Metaverse tokens rose in kind — $MANA +5.26%, $SAND +5.36%, $APE +4.07%, $TOPIA +2.78%, $CUBE +19.6%.
Voxels kicked off last week with a relative flurry of land sales that saw it record its biggest 7D volume (+810%) and a top sale in over 3mths.
Meanwhile, Worldwide Webb enjoyed another bumper week of trading (pulling in 10.94 ETH in trading volume) as it closed out its week-long play-test with an exclusive NFT mint for its players and contests to win an Apartment. The dots high on the horizon in the below chart represent Penthouse sales, which tend to occur during the busiest trading times.
It was a similar result for Treeverse, also pulling in two straight weeks of bumper trading, the 2wks of volume (26.94 ETH) nearly equivalent to the previous 2mths combined. But it was a second week of stumbling trade volumes for both BYOPills and Arcade.
Looking at some of the big, or rising, guns…and HYTOPIA’s land cap (+1.82%) continues its rise, even while its sharply spiked prices let up a bit this week, down 5.9% from 2.72 to 2.56 ETH.
Over at Otherside and Otherdeeds saw 3 straight weeks of rising land caps, as weekly volume reached 230 ETH, its highest for a month.
