CryptoPunks lead November NFT rally with 47% floor price increase
Quick Take The floor price of CryptoPunks reached 37.3 ETH on Nov. 17, its highest level since May. The following is an excerpt from The Block’s Data and Insights newsletter.
The floor price of CryptoPunks reached 37.68 ETH on Monday, Nov. 25, its highest level since May. This marks a dramatic 47% increase from the 25.35 ETH floor recorded at the start of the month.
The NFT market has seen a notable recovery in November, but CryptoPunks has been the standout performer. While the broader NFT market has been on an upswing, CryptoPunks’ performance far outshines other popular collections.
By comparison, BAYC, Milady Maker and Pudgy Penguins have gone up by 7%, 34% and 28%, respectively, in the same period. On average, these competing collections have seen their floor prices rise 34.5%, notably lagging behind CryptoPunks’ 47% surge.
As one of the first major NFT projects, CryptoPunks remains a symbol of NFT culture and history. Their intrinsic value as "OG" NFTs positions them as solid blue-chip assets among older “whale” market participants and traders.
The broader market has also been fueled by a resurgence in optimism following Bitcoin’s new all-time high, and this renewed confidence has likely spilled over into NFTs, with high-profile collections such as CryptoPunks benefiting disproportionately from the increased attention.
Unlike some newer collections, CryptoPunks also enjoy relatively high liquidity and a strong secondary market presence, making them a preferred alternative asset during times of capital rotation.
