What Happened: Mutant Ape Yacht Club topped the sales volume list once again. The project from Yuga Labs was one of three from Yuga to appear in the top ten, with Bored Ape Yacht Club ranking second and Bored Ape Kennel Club ranking tenth.

Doodles continued its hot start in 2022 with another triple digit gain in sales volume from the previous week.

PhantaBear and Bored Bunny were new entrants on the list this week. PhantaBear is a collection of 10,000 NFTs that double as a membership to Ezek Club. The collection has a floor price of 7.5 Ethereum ETH/USD.

Bored Bunny recently launched and has a floor price of 1 ETH. The collection of 4,999 NFTs sold out in 17 minutes, according to their OpenSea listing. Bored Bunny is seeking to “build the strongest community and project around NFTs” and counts Floyd Mayweather and David Dobrik as holders.
