CryptoPunks saw 40 units change hands for a total of 1,309 ETH, valued at approximately $3.58 million. This volume accounted for 40% of the collection's total trading activity for the month of September.
On the Solana network, the Boogles collection recorded 10 sales in September, totaling 8,700 SOL, which is valued at over $1 million. Notable participants in these transactions included WhiteWhale and FOMO co-founder Se Yong Park.
The Zcash-native project zkSnarks debuted with a blind auction on September 18, selling 8,000 NFTs at 1.5 ZEC each. The auction raised roughly $17 million, while secondary market trading volume for the 10,000-piece collection exceeded 5,000 ZEC.
