CoinGecko: NFT trading volume will drop by $14.5 billion month-on-month in 2023

According to a report by CoinGecko, NFT transaction volume in 2023 will be less than half of that in 2022, dropping from $26.3 billion to $11.8 billion, a decrease of $14.5 billion. The dashboard of Dune Analytics shows that the transaction volume of OpenSea, the leader in the NFT market, exceeded $2 billion for 9 consecutive months between 2021 and 2022, but shrank to about $170 million in December 2023. Rohan Handa, the NFT director of Mysten Labs, said that the decline in the field was caused by poor macroeconomic conditions and notable collapses, which weakened the public and investors' confidence in the unstable crypto industry.
