Solana’s Mimay has emerged as a standout performer in the NFT space. Despite a sharp decline in the overall market capitalization, Mimay recorded significant daily sales, leading the NFT sales chart. This notable achievement highlights the growing interest in NFTs and their potential resilience amidst broader market challenges.
According to CryptoSlam data, Solana based NFT collection Mimay sold 5,254 NFTs worth $741,214 and ranked number one on the daily sales chart. This performance came as the overall cryptocurrency market cap threatened to fall below $2 trillion for the first time since February.

The cryptocurrency market experienced significant turmoil, with Bitcoin falling below $50,000 for the first time since February. CoinGecko data reveals that Bitcoin was trading at $54,363 as of 11:30 a.m. ET on Monday.
