There was a time where there was only the Etherium Chain to compare with. That too wasn't too long ago, once people saw the kind of money flowing through it. First, came greed then deepened desires and since blockchain is nothing more than cryptograpy, whatever that goes in-between are codes that dances with the nodes which in all practicality an expert programmer or a backyard coder could sexed it up.
Thus it is imperative that we take a hard look at the available marketplaces and what they are offering. Of course besides the three primary market places whom everyone knows are the ones that the old money, tech money, and people with trust funds in their good name go too. I would not be able to cover all as there are dozens of market places that kept on mushrooming as though the spores were aching out of Hugh Hefner's loins. Today, we will be picking out a few from each popular chain and we will numeralize them in order to make sense of it all. The numbers that we will be looking into is only number of visitors. Not sales, because we're not going into that part just yet.
I would like to be as unbiased as possible and it is for this reason. I choose the first list that I could find. Fortunately, I found this list created by influencer marketing hub.
Super Rare - 2,700,000 Visitors
Foundation - 2,300,000 Visitors
Myth.Market - 8,300
Wax.atomic - 8,800,000
Bakery Swap - 939,000
Knownorigins - 209,000
Enjin Marketplace - 331,000
Portion - 21,000
Solanaart - 1,800,000
Binance NFT - 174,600,000
I basically added Solana and Binance because they are a Marketplace not to be missed and at some point, not in too distant past, it was considered an NFT underdog. Another place I did not input is Air NFT and Gate NFT which in my opinion would be the next upcoming marketplaces to look into. Gate because they have Supermega insane rich chinese who loves gambling.
With this, I conclude the second part of the nft industry. For those who are keen to look deeper into the NFT market, I urge you guys to head to nonfungible.com and download their quarterly report. Always, invest like a pro, and always look at the numbers before investing.
If there are any honorable mentions that I missed out. Please feel free let me know in the comments below and feel free to comment on how else we should assess a marketplace aside from its visitor numbers.
