Solana Achieves $79 Million in August NFT Sales, Second Only to Ethereum

  • Solana recorded $79 million in NFT sales in August.
  • Ethereum is leading, with Solana in second place.
  • The entire NFT market has taken a huge hit.

Since the NFT craze peaked in January 2022, NFTs have fallen off a cliff. The market is a far cry from its peak of $17 billion in trading volume.

Despite these low numbers, there is a silver lining, especially for chains like Solana: they have maintained a high ranking in NFT trading, right behind Ethereum.

Solana lags behind Ethereum, ahead of Bitcoin

Despite the overall downturn in the NFT market, Solana has some good news. In August 2024, Solana ranked second in NFT sales with $78.8 million, compared to Ethereum’s $131 million. Solana also outpaced Bitcoin’s $59 million in NFT sales.

According to Crypto Slam figures, the number of unique buyers and sellers on the Solana network also decreased significantly, by 34.39% and 24.96%, respectively. The total transactions on Solana decreased by 48.48%, reaching just under 1.1 million. Despite the decline, Solana’s average selling price remained relatively stable at $66.62, slightly above the overall market average.

This resilience and second place in volume demonstrates Solana’s continued relevance in the NFT market. Its low fees and scalability make it an ideal platform for low- to mid-range NFTs. In contrast, an Ethereum NFT can cost users $70 in gas fees alone.

NFT Market Overall Declines in August

The overall NFT market experienced a significant downturn in August 2024, with sales dropping by 41.69% to around $374.2 million. Along with this decline, total transaction volume also decreased, dropping by 25.19% to just over 7.3 million.

However, the average sale price increased by 16.93% to $51, showing that while the number of transactions decreased, the value of each sale increased slightly.

Despite recent increases in average selling prices, the NFT market is still far from its peak. In January 2022, monthly NFT sales reached $17 billion, fueled by mainstream interest and speculative fervor. Given current trends, it is uncertain whether NFTs will ever reach those numbers again.

On the other side

  • NFTs are much more difficult to manage than crypto tokens. Unlike crypto tokens, they cannot be bought and sold on exchanges. Selling involves listing them on a marketplace, setting up an auction, and dealing with potential fraud.
  • Because each NFT is unique, they are much harder to sell, meaning they can be up for auction for months.

Why this matters

Despite the overall downturn in the NFT market, Solana’s high ranking shows its performance for complex DeFi applications.
