Solana has recently hit its all-time high of 10k unique daily NFT buyers, surpassing its peak in September.

We can track NFT wash trading by analyzing sales of NFTs to addresses that were self-financed.

Meaning they were funded either by the selling address or by the address that initially funded the selling address.

Analysis of NFT sales to self-financed addresses shows that some NFT sellers have conducted hundreds of wash trades.

We have two upcoming webinars for institutional investors and family offices.
