All 40,000 of Reddit's second-generation NFTs sold out almost instantly, which is interesting considering that the first generation, which came out in July of this year, could not sell for weeks. While Reddit's NFT floor price ranges from $10 to $100, the total market capitalization of digital avatars on the popular social network is $113 million. The most expensive of such NFTs costs $18,146, and the cheapest $29.
This is just the beginning
It seems amazing that Reddit manages to sell out tens of thousands of NFTs in a few hours in such a "depressed crypto market" as well as collect 3 million holders. Nevertheless, according to experts, this is just the beginning, given that the monthly audience of Reddit is just over 50 million users.
Thus, according to analysts, Reddit has all the chances to become one of the leaders in crypto adoption, which will not be surprising, given that the social network has already become a cryptohub on a par with Twitter.
