Interest in NFT-focused altcoin projects hits 10-month lows
Rarible, Ethereum (ETH), Tezos (XTZ), and Flow (FLOW) are innovative NFT markets. Meanwhile, the global crypto recession has pushed interest in NFTs to levels not seen since early October 2021.
In the last six months, interest in searches for NFTs has dropped sixfold globally.
Declining interest in NFTs
According to a DEXterlab report on July 21, crypto users are not as interested in NFTs as they were a year ago. DEXterlab conducted a survey in the form of Twitter polls in July to understand the current state of NFT adoption. The research shows how many people who have never bought NFTs want to do so in the future. While 26.6% of respondents said they would consider buying one, 31.7% of crypto enthusiasts claimed they would never buy an NFT.
Also, the results show that 17.1% of individuals purchased their first NFT in 2021 or earlier. However, searches for “NFT” keywords also dropped significantly in 2022. Statistics in particular show that there are more first-time arrivals this year than in 2021. 24.4% of respondents say they purchased their first NFT in 2022.
