LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Dibbs, the world’s move to Web3, today announced a set of NFT tool data and insights after comparing trade volumes from OpenSea’s top 100 pools of all time with those over a 30-day period in Q4. By analyzing each collection to determine how tool types are evolving, the data revealed a growing interest in NFT tool types beyond PFPs, particularly content, events and distribution of rewards.
Today, content is the fastest growing tool for NFTs. 64 percent of NFTs have two or more tools, accounting for 73 percent of all trading volumes. As seen by the growing popularity of tools beyond PFPs, this data means that multi-tool NFT pools trade at higher values and faster than single-tool pools – which account for just 28 percent of trading volume. The data suggests that future collections will need to offer more tools to keep up with the competition.
Other interesting findings include a growing interest in NFTs that have both physical and digital tools. During the most recent period analyzed, more than 25 percent of NFT sales volumes have been for collections of both physical and digital tools, compared to 14 percent of all-time sales. This insight is consistent with a recent NFT Sentiment Report conducted by Dibbs using its own market data which found that 84 percent of NFT users would buy NFTs if they could be redeemed for physical items.
“Many think of NFTs as a one-hit wonder, where value has only been present in PFPs or other digital content-related opportunities, but in fact the NFT market is dynamic and fascinating in terms of the tools that are possible, and emerging up. It is more important than ever to fully understand the key drivers and trends that have the greatest impact on NFT sales and trading,” said Ben Plomion, Chief Marketing Officer, Dibbs. “OpenSea’s data supports that use cases for NFTs are emerging in the real world, and that general sentiment towards the market is improving as consumers see more NFT relevance and utility in both the physical and digital worlds. We’ve also seen similar trends across our platform, and look forward to seeing more tools unfold alongside the evolution of Web3 and the metaverse.”
As part of Dibbs’ analysis, the company was able to identify ten discrete NFT tools including: content, event access, merchandise, real estate, custom content, art, PFP, voting, games and rewards.
