The future of Flow Network came into doubt after the NFT blockchain had a meager $3 million in NFT sales in a month. Apparently, this is after having peak periods of $450 million in NFT sales within 30 days. In this article, we will explore how Flow works, its history of massive sales in the NFT market, and its future with the recent decline.
Understanding Flow Network and its Involvement in the NFT World
Flow is a blockchain-based decentralized ecosystem that offers many solutions for DeFi, NFT, and the broader crypto world. Within the Flow Network, there are many services and solutions for NFTs, dApps/DeFi projects, and blockchain-based games. Moreover, the Flow Network aims to provide a scalable environment and architecture for fast transactions.
NFTs and crypto games constitute a significant part of the Flow Network. Within their ecosystem, NFTs and other cryptocurrencies can be created and traded. Many solutions, such as Flowty, allow users to buy, sell, borrow, lend, and rent their NFTs within the Flow ecosystem.
Peak Times – $450 Million NFT Sales for Flow
In their peak times, Flow Network was one of the biggest NFT blockchains, competing with Ethereum for the top position in NFT sales, transaction volumes, and buyers. According to data from CryptoSlam, 2021 to halfway through 2022 was the biggest period for NFT sales, and the same applied to the Flow Network.
In fact, the network’s first double digital million-dollar NFT sales were in January 2021, when it made over $83 million. Indeed, the peak month of NFT sales on this blockchain came the next month, when they made a whopping $450 million in NFT sales. By March, this NFT blockchain had another $430 million in NFT sales.
The decline in Flow Network’s NFT Sales can be detected towards the end of 2022 by October when the NFT sales declined to $29 million after reaching a peak of $165 million that year. By June 2023, the total NFT sales were no longer in the double digits in millions after reducing to $7 million. One year later, the NFT Sales within this NFT ecosystem were a meager $3 million in a month. What could have led to this decline?
The Future of Flow Networks in the NFT Market
The future of Flow Network in the NFT market is very complicated, but many factors can contribute to a resurgence. First is the overall recovery of the NFT market. Flow Network is not the only blockchain suffering from the meltdown within the NFT market. Hence, the market needs to recover for Flow Network to benefit.
Secondly, Flow Network also needs to start looking to build new partnerships and collaborations. This could help revive investors’ interest. Strategic collaborations with major brands, artists, and content creators can drive new projects and increase visibility.
The third factor is the community. There needs to be a revival in the community if there’s any chance of having a resurgence with this NFT network. It should start community-building efforts, providing support, and fostering a sense of belonging among users and investors. Ultimately, it should also improve their technology. It should be at the forefront of scalability, speed, and security to stay competitive within the NFT market.
