During the last seven days, Polygon NFTs<\/strong> recorded a 20% increase<\/strong> in trading activity, surpassing Ethereum in overall transaction volume<\/strong>. According to industry reports compiling NFT sales<\/a><\/em> data<\/strong>, digital collectibles<\/strong> on the Polygon network<\/strong> reached a total of $22.3 million<\/strong> in trading volume. This figure accounts for approximately 24% of the total weekly NFT market<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Ethereum-based NFTs<\/a><\/em><\/strong> dropped to second place, generating $19.2 million<\/strong> in volume. Mythos Chain<\/strong> followed with $14.3 million<\/strong>, while Bitcoin-based NFTs<\/strong> ranked fourth at $14.1 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The driving force behind Polygon’s surge<\/strong> is the activity on Courtyard<\/strong>, a platform that enables Real World Assets (RWA)<\/strong> to be tokenized<\/strong> as NFTs. Courtyard specializes in digitizing popular physical collectibles<\/strong> like Pok\u00e9mon<\/strong>, basketball<\/strong>, and baseball cards<\/strong>. These physical cards are securely stored in vaults while their ownership is represented through NFTs<\/strong> on the Polygon blockchain<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buyers can trade these NFTs and, if desired, “burn” the NFT<\/strong> to claim the physical version<\/strong> of the card. This bridge between physical and digital assets<\/strong> has brought a fresh wave of collectors and investors to the Polygon NFT ecosystem<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the innovative model<\/strong> pioneered by Courtyard<\/strong>, Polygon NFT sales<\/strong> rose by 20%, overtaking Ethereum<\/strong> and becoming the new market leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
