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.

The Boy in Bed
You are not alone, little boy. Everyone is prone to some kind of darkness, Treating it like a childhood friend: "How could it possibly betray us?" We share similar stories of descent, Enjoying the illusions we made to cope, Distracting ourselves from the moments Of great awareness—we're running out of hope. We are being swallowed, one by one, And I beg the heavens to bring those illusions back. Our last stars are gravitating away, Leaving our psyche under attack. So please stay awake a little longer, young knight. There are familiar creatures creeping in. They all want your soul in aimless saunter, Like the fish that Jonah lived in. Look up and let's befriend Midnight herself, That perhaps she will calm us down. Don't make the same mistake I did, For I was deceived by a demon with a crown. Who would have ever thought that Our bedrooms could be a warzone? We are lost children of Ares, And our worn-out bed, our throne. Just a little more courage, young prince. Take on shapes like thick smoke, For in your sanctuary of a bedroom, The envious monsters outside, you might provoke. You're shielded and barriered yet vulnerable. You have refuge but not enough strength to fight, For you were tricked into thinking you're weak, By your bad dreams, night after night. See, open your eyes, dear one. Remember, you are not alone In this doomsday-like period Of isolation that no one could have known.
