Daily sales volume of NFT collection CryptoKitties to August 3, 2024
Sales in CryptoKitties - one of the oldest NFT collections available - unexpectedly went up in early September 2021 as NFT trading soared during that time. Originally from 2017, Dapper Labs' collectible on cartoonish cats with randomly generated traits were the first NFTs created on the Ethreum blockchain using the ERC-721 token standard - a common standard in 2021 - and eventually led to another big NFT project: NBA Top Shot. The sudden interest in September 2021 is said to focus around the first 100 CryptoKitties - the so-called "genesis" line - after a popular NFT collector tweeted he purchased a pair of those.
