NFT Markets expand exponentially
The NFT market is currently worth billions, and it’s only getting bigger as daily transactions involving hefty sums are going on. Last week, the largest NFT market, Opensea, sold pieces worth about $483.62 million and set a $13 billion trading volume record.
Axie Infinity also had a weekly sale of $89.83 million and $3.379 billion worth of trading volume. This platform can also brag for its record sale of $3.79 billion within a year. Fractional NFTs also take the crypto space by storm.
These assets are subdivided into multiple frames that are tradable to allow for numerous owners to hold a complete asset together. Trading these shards lowers the price of these assets allowing more investors to trade them.
An excellent example of such an NFT is the LORDKEK cards of 2016. They stand as some of the rarest NFTs on the planet. Only 10 of these cards entered the market, and by now, only eight of them are available for trading. Many can own the shards of these cards. But their holding has to be over 0.00042069 of a full card.
