The sales volume of 30-day has hit $50 million. Solana NFTs recorded $60 million in 30-day sales volume as of December 8. The volume is four times more than ImmutableX. However, the NFT market is still being dominated by Ethereum by a significant margin, as the 30-day NFT sales volume on Ethereum was $400 million.
Compressed NFT minting looks like a big thing for Web3 game studios, as they can mint thousands of in-game non-fungible tokens by spending quite less on the Solana network.
2023 will see several game titles releasing on Solana. Moreover, the release of Saga, the Solana-based phone, will be a crucial highlight for the ecosystem, as mentioned by Solana Ventures investor Justin Barlow.
