The top-ranking non-fungible token collection for Monday was DMarket, which recorded sales of US$742,104, with 4,016 unique buyers and 3,648 sellers engaging in 34,740 transactions. <\/p>\n

The second-ranking collection of the day, Fantasy Top, experienced a big daily sales dip to US$682,369 from the previous day\u2019s US$1.80 million, according to CryptoSlam\u2019s NFT rankings.<\/p>\n

NodeMonkes claimed the third spot in the daily rankings, with sales amounting to US$642,517, a rise from the previous Sunday\u2019s US$274,929. The collection attracted 33 unique buyers and 27 sellers, resulting in 34 total transactions.<\/p>\n

However, the day\u2019s hot development came from CryptoPunks, which recorded US$636,242 in sales at fourth place.<\/p>\n

\t<\/p>\n

CryptoPunks under Yuga Labs, the firm that acquired the collection\u2019s IP in 2022, announced<\/a> its new Super Punk World NFTs that \u201cblur the lines of race & gender and reflect upon virtual versus real world identities.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, the new collection quickly received heavy backlash from community members.<\/p>\n

Certain members critiqued the artistic approach while others have sparked controversy by labeling it as \u201cwoke\u201d because of its focus on race and gender.<\/p>\n

\u201cYuga will no longer touch punks,\u201d said<\/a> Greg Solano, the firm\u2019s chief executive, responding to the public backlash. \u201cThey will just be decentralized and preserved on the blockchain.\u201d<\/p>\n

\t<\/p>\n

Bored Ape Yacht Club, Yuga Labs\u2019 flagship collection, followed CryptoPunks at fifth with US$502,064.<\/p>\n

Both collections are part of the Ethereum blockchain, which reported a total daily sales volume of over US$6.35 million to lead all chains on Monday.<\/p>\n
