<p>The NFT Market is stabilizing thanks to solid and engaged communities with a healthy trading behavior. Usefulness of tokens now seems to take precedence over the notion of financial investment.</p>



<p>The first era of NFTs where profit and speculation reigned supreme seems over, and gradually a new page in the history of this technology is being written under the mainstream radar.</p>



<p>The next boom is beginning to take shape. There is still time to prepare for it, but get ready because this wave will most likely be even more explosive and impactful than the era of “NFT Collectibles”.</p>


The NFT market shrinks and enters into a stabilizing phase, also showing auspicious signs of a coming boom taking shape.

A massive 77% drop was observed in terms of USD traded between Q2 and Q3 2022 with a global volume of about US$1.7 billion in Q3 2022.

A net quarterly loss of US$450M is recorded for the first time ever.

A 84% decrease in profit at resell is observed during the period, for a total loss that decreased by 44% (US$326 million profit for US$783 million loss).

2022

Quarterly NFT Market Report


<p>The bear market has largely impacted the NFT market. For the first time in the history of NFTs, trading-related activities are no longer profitable. Despite a complicated economic context, NFTs continue to surprise, and we observe some strong trends around Metaverses and Utilities over the period, which tends to revitalize the markets. </p>



<p>With speculation in a tailspin, it looks like the industry has once again entered a building phase, away from the spotlight.</p>


A massive 25% drop was observed in terms of USD traded between Q1 and Q2 2022 with a global volume of about US$8 billion in Q2 2022.

A net profit of US$460M is recorded over Q2 2022, a significant decrease compared to Q1 2022 (US$2.3B).

Secondary market remains predominant with almost 80% of the volume of USD traded, in the meantime, primary market has constantly decreased over the period.

A 46% decrease in profit at resell is observed during the period, for a total loss that increased by 23% (US$1.8 billion profit for US$1.4 billion loss).

The market is more centralized than ever: More than 30% of the volume of USD traded over the quarter is distributed between projects that have been launched or acquired by Yuga Labs.

The bear market has largely impacted the NFT market. For the first time in the history of NFTs, trading-related activities are no longer profitable. Despite a complicated economic context, NFTs continue to surprise, and we observe some strong trends around Metaverses and Utilities over the period, which tends to revitalize the markets.

With speculation in a tailspin, it looks like the industry has once again entered a building phase, away from the spotlight.


<p>The incredible enthusiasm for NFTs led to tremendous growth of the NFT industry in 2021. The early days of 2022 mark a new era for NFTs, with many changes to the market.<br>Are we facing a bubble on the verge of bursting? Are the NFTs markets holding up despite the tense geopolitical situation surrounding the war in Ukraine?<br>The Q1 Quarterly Report 2022 presents the first detailed figures on the reality of NFTs markets.<br>This quarter, we had the chance to interview Shaban Shaame, a pioneer of Blockchain Gaming since 2014, who shares his vision and thoughts on the state of the industry.</p>


The general public seems to be losing interest in NFTs, if the search volume on Google is to be believed.
Collectibles are the predominant segment in the industry, far ahead of Art or even the Metaverses.

The resale profit volume is down 3% while the total loss volume is up nearly 50% compared to the previous quarter.
For the first time, some segments show a negative balance: Gaming shows a total loss of almost $50 million on the segment, which makes it the least profitable segment of the industry from a trading point of view.

With nearly $8 billion traded in the first quarter of 2022, the market cannot really be considered to have collapsed. We are seeing more of a form of stabilization, in line with the last quarter of 2021.
Conversely, the volume of sales fell by nearly 50%, with a very marked slowdown in the volume of buyers and sellers.
The great novelty of this quarter is undoubtedly the evolution of profitability in the markets. Making a profit in NFTs is no longer so easy in 2022...


<p>Every year since 2018, NonFungible.com publishes “Yearly NFT Market Report” which remains to date the most in-depth and comprehensive piece of research about the NFT Industry</p>



<p>These reports are designed for curious newcomers as well as experienced investors.</p>


Collectibles is probably the segment that is running out of steam in favor of Metaverses and Blockchain Gaming.

With over $5 billion in profit recorded in NFT trading, speculation is an integral part of this market. But this is a more complex activity than it seems...

Markets gradually became saturated with the issuance of millions of new NFTs. How have the markets reacted to this unbridled multiplication of assets?

The market boomed to over $15 billion for nearly 2 million active wallets.

"NFT" was declared word of the year 2021. This is not surprising given the exponential growth of the industry. Between unprecedented opportunities, excessive speculation and new economic models: where are we?

The 200 pages, 70 metrics and 15 interviews of this report have been designed to give you the most complete and up-to-date overview of the different facets of the NFT industry.

Yearly NFT Market Report

2021


<p>Data doesn’t lie, at NonFungible we analyze it and make the complex simple and freely accessible for everyone.</p>



<p>Our Q3 Report looks into Non-Fungible Token trends on the Ethereum chain. We use our data to provide an in depth analysis of the market backed with charts and analytics.</p>


Q3 of 2021 broke the $billion threshold by a long way, with almost $6 billion traded on the Ethereum blockchain alone. All indicators continue to show an upwards trend, with the number of wallets in use of both buyers and sellers increasing significantly.

Record USD volume for NFT sales

Unsurprisingly, the collectibles segment generated the most USD volume this quarter, undoubtedly stemming from PFP hype but also from the continual increase in the price of CryptoPunks and Bored Ape Yacht Club.

Market Distribution

The recent growth of the NFT industry has been almost unbelievable. In just a few short months, the $billion-dollar mark has been crossed in traded NFTs, followed by $billion per quarter and only then to be surpassed by $billion per month.

The market we see evolving today is a market that is growing at an exponential rate, with unprecedented liquidity but it is also even more of a speculative and volatile market than ever before.

The current market growth dictates that all investors and NFT stakeholders should pay extra attention as Triple-digit growth goes hand in hand with market instability, unrealistic expectations and potential disappointments.


<p>NFTs can be used to connect the real world and the virtual world, even more so when the real world community is already federated. For the sports industry, it was therefore very natural to develop projects around NFTs to be as close as possible to their community. Whether it&#8217;s Adidas, Nike, the NHL or Formula One, all these major brands have made a project or have taken a strong interest in the web3 environment.</p>



<p>One of the latest companies to join the big brands using the benefits offered by NFTs is the French company PMU. With the Stables project, the bet horsing company wants to create a privileged environment between its community and horse racing. But PMU wants to go beyond their own community and expand their world to what Web3 offers the best : a new audience, a new public and new horizons!</p>

<p>The <a href="https://www.pmu.fr/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PMU</a> is the European leader and n°3 worldwide in horse betting whose economic mission is to finance the French equestrian sector. Their experience in horse racing as well as their in-depth knowledge of this sector will be put to work in Stables.</p>



<p>The Stables project was created in partnership with <a href="https://321founded.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">321founded</a>, a French corporate start-up studio whose job is to create start-ups on behalf of institutions. And to achieve their goals, they have recruited talented web3 experts, professionals from the equestrian world and a video game studio.</p>



<p>Because yes, Stables will be a fantasy game that will use NFT in its gameplay using the Tezos blockchain.</p>



<h2>An Ambitious Horses Fantasy Game</h2>


<div class="wp-block-image">

<p>Stable<strong>s</strong> will be a fantasy game, meaning real-world elements will be used in the game for a more immersive experience. And since it is a fantasy game, several customization options will be available for your horses</p>



<p>Thanks to the use of 10 years of historical race data from the PMU, Stables will be able to create digital duplicates of already existing horses and stables. These doubles will be Stables&#8217; Genesis collection for the first drop.</p>



<p>Hundreds of attributes have been drawn to pixel-perfection by artists with an original and unique style all in 3D. For this first launch, minting at the drop will give you access to the Early Access Pack, which contains:</p>



<ul><li>Your NFT of course</li><li>Access to the alpha of the game</li><li>Bonus items&nbsp;</li><li>Some Stables Points&nbsp;</li><li>1 secret item</li></ul>



<p>From Q3 2023, it will become possible to virtually improve and modify performance and results charts. It is therefore at this point that the decisions will become more important and decisive for the strategy you intend to put in place to be the best!</p>



<h2>The Next Steps of Stables</h2>



<p>Stables is in a whitelist period, so we encourage you to follow them on their social networks and their Discord. By registering, you will receive a free Stables Pass (ntNFT) which will be your key to the entire Stables universe and the whole process up to the mint of your NFT.</p>



<p>The sooner you will be part of this community, the higher the chance you will have to be whitelisted this month. The Stables Whiteslist will open the 9th of January until the end of Q1 2023. The NFT drop will happen.</p>



<p>The game will be released in the third quarter of 2023 and international development is scheduled for the very beginning of 2024. Many surprises are therefore expected by this game with multiple promises!</p>

The equestrian sport industry continues to renew itself and innovate forever and are closer to its supporters. Today, the French company PMU announced an NFT project: Stables.

Stables: A New Fantasy Horse Game


<h2>Why Build Our HQ in a Metaverse?</h2>



<p>We&#8217;ve been dreaming about this building for a while! We started thinking about the idea of a place to welcome the public a few years ago but let&#8217;s be honest, the bull run slightly disrupted our plans. However, our ambitions and objectives have not changed:</p>



<ul><li>Have a place to find free information about NFTs</li><li>Be able to organize meetups to present our reports and answer questions directly</li><li>Organize AMAs</li><li>Exhibit different artistic works</li><li>Discussing the future of Web3</li></ul>



<p>Why Decentraland? Historically, this was the first project we were able to follow on our <a href="https://nonfungible.com/market-tracker" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Market Tracker</a>. Then, it is in our eyes the virtual world that symbolizes the laboratory of experiments that is the NFT ecosystem. It therefore corresponds to our identity to want to continue to build tools that are always as close as possible to our community, in a community approach.</p>



<p>That’s why we asked <a href="https://www.lowpolymodelsworld.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Low Poly Models</a> for their help to build the best building we could have ever imagined of. And additionally, our friends from <a href="https://dappcraft.io/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">DAPPCRAFT</a> created some nice <a href="https://events.decentraland.org/event/?id=9b802ea1-bee9-4d06-831c-aab5735b3c0b" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">emotes and wearables we’re going to give away</a> during this weekend!</p>

<p>While 2021 was surprising and incredible, we don&#8217;t forget that we&#8217;re still building the foundation for tomorrow&#8217;s web. What is called the &#8220;web3&#8221; is not yet precisely defined and it may take a few more years.

We've wanted it for over a year, now it's a dream come true: we have our building in Decentraland! Come and take a tour of the owner.

The NonFungible.com HQ in Decentraland is now open!


<p>One can hardly escape the Bored Apes-starred billboards scattered across Tel Aviv&#8217;s highways nowadays. One invites to the city&#8217;s largest museum, another to a &#8216;tomorrow&#8217; exhibition 5 minutes drive away; both for exhibitions of NFTs. Visiting one such, the view was scenic. An AI assistant was busy answering art enthusiasts bombarding her with &#8220;what&#8217;s all this NFT fuss about anyway&#8221; kind of questions. Van Gogh and Chagall, meanwhile, whose masterpieces hung a few meters away, seemed rather lonely. The takeover was striking.</p>



<h2>Not so long ago have art curators despised NFTs. Now they&#8217;re exhibiting them.</h2>



<p>Tel Aviv is no exception. NFTs are now sweeping the worlds&#8217; museums by the dozens. One critic says they&#8217;re &#8220;<a href="https://www.creativebloq.com/news/ouche-nft-exhibition-offf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">weird</a>&#8220;, another &#8220;<a href="https://jingculturecrypto.com/fotografiska-stockholm-somewhere-media-somewhere-ethereal/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ethereal</a>&#8221; (what a hilarious pun), all visit. In Seattle, Amsterdam, even Ukraine: NFT-designated museums are not something reserved for the Metaverse anymore. But more momentous is NFTs&#8217; acceptance as equals among already respectable, well-established, traditionally conservative museums. </p>



<p><a href="https://currency.com/paris-louvre-is-exploring-the-introduction-of-art-nfts" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Louvre</a>, <a href="https://www.moma.org/calendar/events/7416" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MoMA</a>, <a href="https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/rijksstudio/30942--jari-kettunen/collections/nft" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Rijksmuseum</a>, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/sep/24/british-museum-nfts-digital-hokusai-postcards-lacollection" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the British Museum</a>. Out of the world&#8217;s top 10 art museums, at least 6 have had their share of giving the spotlight to non-fungibles so far. Not only have they been exhibiting NFTs for a while now; they&#8217;ve also been busy minting them, including offering some very non-digital artworks for sale on the Mainnet. A recent New York Times article describing the current tide of interest among museums in NFTs, marked the final approval of this phenomenon&#8217;s existence.</p>



<p><br>Old-timers may remember it hasn&#8217;t quite been that way all the way long. &#8220;<em>NFTs are an embarrassment to the art world</em>&#8220;, read one headline at an art outlet. &#8220;<em>Think cryptocurrency is bad? NFTs are even worse</em>&#8220;, declared another, right before rhetorically asking &#8220;<em>Does anyone aside from tech bros think this is a good idea?</em>&#8220;. Another asked &#8220;<em>Why Does NFT Art Look So Bad?</em>&#8220;, and one more simplisticly announced &#8220;NFTs Are Terrible&#8221;. Some artists went further to pledge that NFTs Are &#8220;the Bane of Their Existence&#8221;. </p>



<p>Where this hate comes from is quite obvious. Gatekeepers will always shelter their castle from newcomers, even if their castle – conemporary art, in that case – is founded on priding itself for being revolutionary and inviting. Simply put, &#8220;<em>the NFT Craze Reveals the Artworld’s Snobbism</em>&#8220;, as Martin Herbert&#8217;s article in <a href="https://artreview.com/how-nft-craze-reveals-artworld-snobbism/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ArtReview</a> goes. Writing there too, <a href="https://artreview.com/why-the-artworld-loves-to-hate-nft-art-beeple-christies-grimes/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">J.J. Charlesworth answers</a> similarly in his &#8220;<em>Why the Artworld Loves to Hate NFT Art</em>&#8221; article.</p>



<p>But now a much tougher question arises: why doesn&#8217;t the artworld hate NFT that much anymore?</p>



<h2>Follow the Money</h2>



<p>Museums need money, and NFTs have money. If nothing else, it is this primal need that explains museums&#8217; interest in engaging with NFTs, needless to say minting them. Far from a win for NFTs, this could easily count as another cynical exploitation of them; of which the NFT community is rightfully wary of after seeing too many brands joining at highs and leaving at lows. Except it is actually one of the most striking, unequivocal wins the NFT community has ever known.</p>



<p>The very promise of NFT in regards to art is, and always has been, to make it economically viable; to make it profitable. These are not mere words: art has long had a hard time finding funding, receiving it either from oligarchs, nouveaux riches or governments, but always in search for a better business model. NFTs vow to end this search. Some artists welcomed them, and quickly saw their gamble proven right. But the artworld as a whole has clearly been reluctant to adapt, mostly preferring the old and familiar rather than the new and unkown. </p>



<p>And then come the museums, the &#8216;temples of art&#8217; as one once said. And even if with few praises to the NFT community; even if hesitantly, warily, far from wholeheartedly; even if as a mere tool for lining their pockets – they join the NFT revolution. Probably absentmindedly, perhaps against their own will, the museums have proved what has been clear to web3 savvies but less so to artists themselves: that NFTs solve art&#8217;s money problem.</p>



<p>Using NFTs, making money off of them, as cynical as it might be, the museums are doing NFTs a greatest service: they are realising their promise. The temple of the artworld – the same artworld that used to disregard NFTs – is now embracing them. Could there be a sweeter win?</p>



<h2>Vive la révolution NFT</h2>



<p>It is not just the money, though. The only thing museums – non-profits, at the end (though ones in desperate need for budget sources) – crave even more than money, is visitors. Despite being elitist and highbrowed at times, their mission statement is nonetheless being visited by the public. That they are exhibiting NFTs means – as intuitive as it is – that the public loves NFTs, or at least is very curious about them. And when the public goes to the museum, it wants to see NFTs there. </p>



<p>Thus NFT goes to the museum. But beyond all the utilitarian motives, beyond the needs and hidden interests, lies one truth NFT&#8217;s acceptance to the museum necessarily means: that the artworld finally views it as art. No vocal, enraged article or anti-NFT petition could ever dispute the fact that NFTs are now  exhibited next to Chagall and Van Gogh&#8217;s paintings. That they have made it to the temple of art.</p>



<p><strong>The importance of this approval – as marginal and anecdotal as it may first seem – cannot be overstated</strong>. Entering the museum means showcasing NFT&#8217;s benefits for the artworld at their most striking, having the upper hand in the public opinion, and being regarded as artistically worthy. Entering the museum means entering the heart of art. It is more than another proof that NFTs are here to stay; more than another battle won over the desperate gaurdians of the artworld. It is the victory.</p>

<p><strong>For creators</strong>, Unlock provides simplicity. Unlock gives them a JavaScript snippet which lets creators embed locks on their own websites that restrict access to people who have the right key. A lock is just an “access control list”: the list of consumers who are allowed to access their creation (because they own a key). It makes adding a membership layer to your website, or even to a single article, just as easy as embedding an ad.</p>
<p><strong>For users</strong>, Unlock provides consistency. Up until now, subscriptions have been totally chaotic, with hundreds of different approaches, requiring you to keep a collection of accounts — and passwords! — to access all the things you care about. There’s no intelligent way to connect them together, unless you’re the platform that controls the network. The blockchain allows Unlock and creators to know only who has access to what, and nothing more.</p>


Ʉnlock is a protocol for memberships built on a blockchain.

<p>Skullys are reward-based digital collectibles featuring uniquely designed ghost pirate skulls on the Ethereum blockchain. Collect your favorite Skully and embark on a hunt for the loot. The location-based service (LBS) game allows players the ability to perform geo-flagging tasks to earn booty in the form of PO8 tokens. PO8 tokens can be redeemed for additional game accessories to unlock new powers, increasing the earning potential of each individual Skully. Geo-flagging is a feature allowing players to use real-time geo-data from a mobile device or computer to &#8220;check in&#8221; at various locations such as restaurants, coffee shops, stores, concerts, or anywhere on the go. Players are allowed a minimum of 3 times per day to geo-flag, and each flag pin must occur outside a 800m radius from the latest pin. The higher in ranking the Skullys moves up, the more geo-flagging opportunities will be available within a wider geographic area.</p>
