NFT remains the dominant sector on Ethereum and is responsible for most of the transfers on the network. This is according to the newly released Coin Metrics State of Network report.

NFT token transfers beat that of other spaces

Non-fungible tokens have been trading at all-time highs for the past few months despite the general downtrend in the crypto market. In addition, since July 2021, NFT transfers on the network have surpassed Stablecoins and all ERC-20 tokens.

LooksRare, which launched on Ethereum in early January, posted over $2 billion in trading volume within the first 30 zile. Even the Coinbase NFT platform, which is yet to launch, already has more than 2.4 million people on the waitlist.

The interest in NFT isn’t limited to retail investors. Several institutions like Adidas, Nike, Mercedes, and others have released limited NFT collections as they seek to make their mark on the metaverse.

Demand for Bitcoin on Ethereum blockchain wanes

However, the current market pullback has affected other sectors significantly. One of the affected is the DeFi space, where the total value locked had scăzut below $200 billion this year.

BTC and ETH active addresses both dropped about 8% week-over-week.

However, since the start of this year, the inflow of wBTC on DeFi has mirrored the decline of the wider crypto market. While the inflow more than doubled last year, we are yet to witness a level of sustained inflow in 2022.
