Trailing behind BAYC, Ethereum’s Captainz and Cryptopunks collections occupied the subsequent positions.

The priciest NFT transaction belonged to an offering from the Bitcoin Burials collection, changing hands for a staggering $1.68 million. Following that, BAYC #1,734 fetched a cool $1.2 million, and Cryptopunk #8,531 commanded a price slightly over $1 million.
