OKX’s NFT has surpassed prominent competitors including Blur, Magic Eden, and OpenSea, boasting an astounding daily trading volume of more than $50 million.
This milestone, which was recorded on December 18 at roughly 10:00 a.m. UTC, according to DappRadar, showed the market dominance of OKX NFT Marketplace.
The platform nevertheless maintains a substantial advantage over other well-known NFT marketplaces, albeit seeing a modest decline in daily trade volume to $35 million.
The supremacy of OKX NFT Marketplace is shown in the $24 million 24-hour trading volume of Blur, Magic Eden, and OpenSea combined.
Ordinals have been criticised as a waste of Bitcoin transaction blockspace by some critics while some have appreciated the new standard for increasing the number of transactions that produce the transaction fees required to motivate miners to safeguard the network. Transaction fees from more than 49 million transactions have totaled more than 2250 BTC.
The platform’s introduction of Bitcoin Ordinals trading is the reason for the increasing trading volume. The NFT marketplace saw a notable spike in activity as a result of this development. For BRC-20 transactions based on ordinal inscriptions, OKX collaborated with UniSat, a company that makes wallets for Ordinals, to develop an indexing system. Not long after came a blockchain explorer.
With $367 million in sales, Bitcoin had a remarkable week, topping the combined weekly trade volumes of Ethereum and Solana, which came to $91 million, according to CryptoSlam.
In terms of daily NFT sales volume, the Bitcoin network overtook Ethereum ($16 million) and Solana ($6 million) on December 12.
