2023年3月24日

NFT和加密交易分析網站DappRadar昨天發布了一份令人震驚的聲明。在熊市期間，交易員在2023年第一季度向虛擬世界投入了超過3.11億美元的銷售額。是什麼導致了虛擬世界NFT項目的購買激增?Yuga在第一季度的銷售額為2.22億美元，是什麼導致了第一季度虛擬世界3.11億美元的銷售額?DappRadar將破紀錄的銷量主要歸功於Yuga Lab的《Otherside》。元宇宙NFT項目的交易量為2.22億美元，比上一季度的交易量增長了237%。這場市場狂熱是在Yuga實驗室宣布其“第二次太空之旅”的日期之後發生的。NFT社區將在3月25日看到他們即將到來的元宇宙。之前的先睹之快很成功，許多交易員打賭，尤加明天的第二次“另一邊”也會給人留下深刻的印象。DappRadar報告稱，Blur上的NFT交易也是交易量高的原因之一。 The disruptive NFT platform injected hundreds of millions of dollars into the NFT ecosystem with its last airdrop , and the window to qualify for their next round of airdrops is running now. To qualify, traders must bid on collections and list NFTs close to project floors. Free money is always a compelling proposition. Not surprisingly, traders are buying in by flooding Blur’s order books with market activity. Airdrop farmers targeted one project in particular, for example. MG Land, a metaverse project that allows users to meet friends and play games in their virtual world, registered over $60m of trading volume in Q1. This $60m volume was higher than the volumes of well-known virtual land projects Axie Infinity, Sandbox, and Decentraland. NFT traders used Blur’s zero royalty platform to wash trade MG Lands assets back and forth. Many critics pointed to MG Land’s trading activity as an example of artificial market dynamics created by Blur’s airdrop campaign, complaining that the buyers and sellers had no interest in the actual project itself. These claims do seem correct. Blur turned off the ability for traders to earn points by buying and selling MG Land, and the project’s floor immediately crashed to .03 eth after reaching a high of .15 eth in early March. What does the future hold for NFT trading in virtual worlds? The trading volume for virtual worlds does not seem like an isolated phenomenon. In 2021, investors put $3.7b of funds into metaverse and blockchain gaming projects. That number nearly doubled to $7.6b in 2022 . This year has been rough for markets. Many economists are predicting worldwide recessions as central banks struggle to reduce inflation amidst meltdowns in the banking industry. With over $500m invested in Q1 2023, however, there seems to be plenty of appetite for exposure to the growing sectors of metaverse projects and blockchain gaming.

It seems inevitable, therefore, that we’ll be spending more and more time in virtual worlds. As we do so, we’ll also continue to place an increasing amount of emphasis on owning digital assets in our metaverses. For these reasons and as data from DappRadar indicates, it’s clear that trading NFTs in virtual worlds projects will continue to be a huge business.
