With a remarkable trading volume of $18.2 million and an impressive 26.9% dominance in NFT sales, Polygon has solidified its position as the most prominent blockchain in terms of sales count.
This achievement is a testament to Polygon’s recent strategic decisions, as it has become the preferred choice for numerous Web 2.0 projects aiming to launch NFT initiatives at a low entry price. Additionally, Polygon’s ecosystem includes a multitude of games incorporating NFT mechanics, such as Planet IX, The Sandbox, and Oath of Peak.
Polygon has also emerged as the most popular blockchain in 2023 so far. The data from NFT Data shows that Polygon’s popularity went up from 23% in 2022 to 41% in Q1 2023. This has also attracted some notable industry players, including Nike, Reddit, and Starbucks.
