🎮 Ethereum NFTs come alive — traders return to 2022 levels — TheBlock
📈 The number of unique traders in the Ethereum NFT market is approaching 40,000 — the highest since June 2022. The NFT market has clearly emerged from hibernation.
🔑 Key drivers:
— OpenSea OS2 has exited beta.
— The Voyages program has started awarding "XP" — potential points for a future airdrop.
🔥 But the main thing is not just marketing, but a return to real utility:
— Orange Cap Games has acquired the rights to Moonbirds — they are set for integration into the new part of the game Vibes.
— Mythical Games is launching FIFA Rivals with NFTs from Adidas — based on the NFL Rivals model.
👾 NFTs are becoming not just JPEGs, but functional modules for IP and gaming. This is no longer a hype market, but the infrastructure of Web3 content.
Ethereum NFTs have undergone a cleansing, and now the market is entering a phase of a new mature cycle.
OpenSea is coming back to life, utility is growing, and IP is merging with gaming.
It turned out to be too early to bury NFTs.
