Neutral
Di mixed signals wey land from week to week dey show say di market impact on NFT trading na neutral. Di first drop of 22.7% for NFT trading volume plus decline for major chains show say demand dey weak. But di 5.7% bounce back to $106 million mean say high-value collectors still dey active, even though di total count of buyers and sellers drop gbege. For short term, traders fit see small wahala as big drop for people wey dey participate fit make bid-ask spread wide and e go reduce liquidity. For long term, di return of volume — especially di jump for Mythos Chain — mean say institution or whale bros still get interest, wey fit stabilize price but e no too likely make sharp bullish rally happen without retail buyers join back.
