Blue-Chip NFTs Lead November Market Resurgence 

With an amazing 392% rise in sales volume over last month, CryptoPunks made over $49 million across 388 transactions. This boom underlined the ongoing attraction of one of the first and most famous NFT collections.

Pudgy Penguins, in the meantime, saw a 262% increase in sales volume, with transactions totaling $16 million. The collection’s attractive and community-driven stand attracts both seasoned NFT aficionados and newbies, demonstrating a growing respect.

The substantial increases in sales volume for these runs were not isolated events. Following a rather slow mid-year performance, the larger NFT market seems to be gathering speed.

Driven by better liquidity and increasing activity among blue-chip collections, collectors and investors seem to be profiting from rebuilt market confidence. Moreover, the comeback points to a probable change in attitude toward NFTs as both speculative investments and cultural objects.

Complementing this surge of activity, McDonald’s latest collaboration with Doodles NFT exposed blockchain technology to a whole fresh audience.

CNF previously reported that the partnership, known as “GM Spread Joy,” featured vibrant rainbow-themed graphics from the esteemed NFT collection on 110 million McCafé coffee cups distributed across the United States.
