NFT Sales Surge to $2 Billion in February—Highest Since Terra Crash
According to Decrypt, NFT sales volume skyrocketed in February to highs not seen since the onset of crypto winter last spring, according to data from DappRadar.

Trading surpassed a whopping $2.04 billion last month, up 117% from $941 million in January. Those figures make February the best month the NFT market has seen since last May when Terra’s implosion cratered the crypto economy and buried the then-red-hot NFT market in ice.

The surge, though, appears indebted almost entirely to a single, controversial source: Blur.”
Blur’s trading volume jumped over $1.13 billion in February from the month prior, a stunning statistic that accounts for almost all of the entire NFT market’s month-over-month gains. But the majority of that volume was generated by a small number of whales flipping NFTs back and forth and back again, to accumulate BLUR tokens through the company’s incentives scheme.

How Much Wash Trading Is Really Happening on Blur?
From an article on Decrypt, the Upstart marketplace Blur has risen to the top of the NFT world in recent weeks, vaulting ahead of longtime leader OpenSea through tokenized trading rewards. The cause of the surging trading volume has split opinion in the NFT space, prompting a notable Web3 analytics firm to discount much of the recent trading data from the Blur marketplace.
