What Happened: The top 10 for the week included four new projects and saw a new record set for 24 hour trading volume by a new mint.

Otherdeed for Otherside minted Saturday as the latest project from Bored Ape Yacht Club parent Yuga Labs. The project sold out with 55,000 NFTs sold in the public mint at a price point of 305 ApeCoin APE/USD, or around $6,000.

The project’s demand led to huge gas wars and over $150 million in Ethereum ETH/USD burned Saturday night, including many people seeing failed transactions. At the time of writing, the floor price for Otherdeed is 7.2 ETH, or around $19,950.

The sales volume of Otherdeed broke a record just set by Moonbirds for most ETH in sales volume in a 24-hour period.

Bored Ape Yacht Club and Mutant Ape Yacht Club ranked second and third for the week and saw strong sales volume as holders of both NFT collections were able to claim a free Otherdeed this weekend.

Moonbirds ranked in fourth place and saw a sharp volume decline, but remains one of the top NFTs of the last 30 days and all-time for sales volume despite being relatively new to the space. It was also announced recently that Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian invested in the Moonbirds team

Perhaps the biggest surprise on the top 10 sales volume list is Okay Bears, a new Solana SOL/USD NFT collection of 10,000. Okay Bears had a mint price of 1.5 SOL and saw strong demand post-sellout lead to a floor price that topped the 150 SOL level before settling at 87 SOL at the time of writing, or around $7,671. Okay Bears are available for secondary sales on Magic Eden and also as one of the first Solana projects listed on OpenSea.

Akutars was another new mint for the week and saw strong demand, while also seeing problems with its contract, leading to a loss of Ethereum locked away forever.

Overall, the top 10 sales volume list saw four newcomers and only one of the previous six leaderboard projects having a week-over-week decline.

Outside of the top 10, Doodles saw a 95% jump in sales volume to rank 13th on the list. Ethereum Name Services, which also has its own token called Ethereum Name Services ENS/USD came in 18th place with a 4,248% increase in sales volume led by a rush to buy three digit and four digit addresses.

Adidas Originals also jumped 90% in sales volume to rank 22nd with the announcement of a claim for physical merchandise from Adidas AG ADDYY.
