Since the beginning of this year, the performance of mainstream NFT trading platforms has been quite impressive. According to platform data, they have accumulated over $60 million in revenue since January, with the NFT market contributing nearly $19.5 million, and token trading performing strongly, generating over $41 million in revenue.

In terms of trading volume, the figures are even more remarkable. Token trading has reached nearly $5 billion in transaction volume, while the NFT sector is not lagging behind, with a trading volume of about $2.2 billion. What does this indicate? Market activity is on the rise, with both tokens and NFTs moving forward, showing that investor enthusiasm for Web3 assets remains.

Looking at the revenue structure, the contribution from token trading is significantly higher, reflecting current user preferences for liquid assets. However, the NFT market continues to grow steadily, indicating that the fundamentals of digital collectibles and virtual assets markets are still intact. How far this trend can go depends on future policies and market sentiment.

NFTs are still alive, this rebound is definitely not just a flash in the pan... The tokens are just wildly sucking blood. --- Wait, is the 2.2 billion NFT trading volume really that optimistic? Feels like there's a lot of water in it. --- 50 billion tokens vs 2.2 billion NFTs, that gap... NFTs still have no hope. --- The key still depends on policies; good data is meaningless. Once a policy is announced, everything resets to zero. --- Wait, is this income data double-counted? Thinking about it carefully, it doesn't quite add up. --- When the market goes up, they say the fundamentals are good; when it goes down, they say it's just a correction. This kind of rhetoric is really impressive. --- Liquidity assets are in high demand, which makes sense. NFTs are still in Dreamland.

Tokens are really impressive, with a $5 billion trading volume crushing NFTs. It seems everyone still prefers trading coins. Digital collectibles are stable this time, but their popularity is clearly not as high as last year. $60 million in revenue sounds like a lot, but when broken down, tokens are actually the real cash cow. A single policy statement can ruin everything—that's the fate of Web3. NFTs are still around; they're not dead, but there are no new tricks. It's all just repeating the story of harvesting the leeks.

The digital collectibles wave has really bounced back, but it still depends on how the policies are promoted... Token trading outperforms NFTs, indicating that everyone still prefers liquid assets. 60 million in revenue sounds good, but is it really enough? NFTs need a new narrative to make a comeback. How long can this market last... who knows. With a trading volume of 5 billion, how much of it is artificially inflated? The market recovery is real, but FOMO will only last at most three months. NFTs are not dead yet, but they are definitely much quieter. Web3 investors' enthusiasm is being sustained by policies. Tokens and NFTs rising together—looks impressive, but what’s the reality?

According to the database, tokens make up the majority of the $60 million revenue... Hmm, shouldn't the $19.5 million from NFTs also be postponed to announce the exact figures? Both legs are walking, but no one can say which leg will stumble first. Let's wait patiently for the bloom.

Looking at this data? To be honest, token trading completely outperforms NFTs. People just want quick turnover, who still cares about digital collectibles? Policy fluctuations can cause a downturn at any time. If this market trend can last until Q2, that would be considered good. However, 60 million is indeed somewhat interesting; at least the market hasn't completely died out.

$5 billion trading volume? I just want to know how much of that is real demand, and how much is wash trading and volume manipulation... I'm skeptical about NFTs; they should have already cooled off, yet they're still trying to hold up the fundamentals? Token trading is the main course; as long as there's hype, who cares about policies? Wait, is this data real? The last time I got rug-pulled, the platform's data was also hyped like this... Market activity is picking up? Probably just the people who got liquidated are becoming active again. Walking on two legs? Looks like both legs are running away, haha. If they really push upward, it all depends on who ends up holding the bag in the end. How far can this run? It all depends on whose wallet is deeper.
