Dear Bankless Nation,

Daily and weekly NFT volume levels have been uptrending over the past month.

*Haven’t seen that in a while*!

A volume snapshot is far from a comprehensive measure of the pulse of the NFT space right now, sure, but it does show some strength returning to the ecosystem here.

We’ll see if this renewed strength prefaces an even bigger year-end rally over the coming weeks. In the meantime thanks as always for reading everyone, here’s your latest weekly NFT roundup! ✌️
