OpenSea’s August Volume Blows Even Traditional Internet Marketplaces Out of the Water 

NFT marketplace OpenSea just completed a $3B month, according to data from Dune Analytics. That accounts for a near 10X of its previous high from July, when it hit $325M in volume.

OpenSea is far and away the leading NFT marketplace. According to Decrypt, the next largest platform is Axie Infinity’s marketplace, which did $820M in volume last month. CryptoPunks came in third, posting $667M in volume on its Larva Labs site.

It’s not just doing well for an NFT marketplace. OpenSea’s August volume matched 16-year-old Etsy’s entire second-quarter volume. The popular arts and crafts site did $3.04B in volume in Q2 2021.

eBay’s average monthly volume sits at roughly $7.3B. OpenSea would only need a 2.5X increase in volume to catch eBay.

Binance.com Added to Investor Alert List by Singapore Regulator  

The Monetary Authority of Singapore, the main financial regulator in that country, has placed Binance.com on its investor alert list. Its country-specific site, Binance.sg, is a separate entity and is not on the list. Last week, Binance.sg hired Richard Teng, the former chief regulatory officer of the Singapore Stock Exchange, as its CEO.

Binance.com has come under regulatory scrutiny and pressure these last several months, with multiple jurisdictions from Europe to Asia making enforcement actions or issuing warnings about the exchange. Additionally, its US entity, Binance.US suffered a blow when recently hired CEO Brian Brooks, also a former regulator, left within a few months. In an interview with Az információ ezen a héten, Binance.com CEO Changpeng Zhao, known as CZ, said, “regulators around the world are looking at crypto. and when they look at crypto, they do look at us first, given that we are by far the largest player in the market globally.”

In the interview, he also said Binance.US plans to go public within three years.
