The Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) non-fungible token (NFT) collection surged to the forefront of the market with a total of US$919,152 in daily sales on Wednesday.

BAYC ended DMarket’s near week-long streak of leading daily NFT sales, CryptoSlam data shows.

BAYC is the world’s second-leading collection in all-time NFT sales with around US$3.18 billion. It’s second only to Axie Infinity’s US$4.27 billion.

DMarket from the Mythos blockchain was pushed down to the second spot on Wednesday despite a small sales bump to US$698,815 from US$685,764.

Solana’s DeGods claimed the third spot in the daily rankings with sales of US$651,574.

Guild of Guardians Heroes on Immutable fell down to the fourth spot from the second spot for two consecutive days to open the week. It recorded US$532,034 in daily sales.

Mad Lads on Solana came in fifth with US$430,919.

Ethereum blockchain, where BAYC resides led all blockchains with US$4.74 million, a notable increase from the previous day’s US$3.28 million.

Solana was second with US$2.8 million, up from US$1.67 million the previous day.

Meanwhile, Mythos Chain is closing in on the US$500 million milestone, now just under US$6 million away.

Mythos was ranked fifth on Wednesday’s blockchain sales rank with almost US$700,000.

Right Place & Right Time (bitcoin hourly price offset)
Each day, a new composition for the Master is generated autonomously using a data feed of Bitcoin's last 24 hours of price action. Each hour's price programmatically controls rotation, scale, and position of a correlating layer. Astute viewers will surmise the day's price volatility simply by examining the artwork. While the daily image generation is the result of autonomous API calls, utilizing an algorithm the artist wrote, the artist has chosen to retain a control token. This token allows him to fine-tune variables associated with his algorithm, in addition to addressing aesthetic concerns within the life-cycle of the artwork. Layer state, alpha, hue, saturation, and brightness are elements the artist has retained control of in order that this artwork remain a living work-in-progress. An earlier iteration of this artwork was featured as a nightly projection mapping video on the face of the Daniels Fisher Clocktower, as part of ETH Denver 2020. Access to this and additional exclusive content awaits the master token owner at the artist's NFT Portal: https://collect.mattkane.com/minted-works/right-place-right-time-bitcoin-hourly-price-offset/
