The non-fungible token (NFT) sector surged to a market capitalization of more than $9.3 billion as Ethereum-based collections increased along with the price of Ether.
NFT data tracker NFT Price Floor showed on Wednesday that the overall market capitalization for NFT collections had hit $9.3 billion, a 40% uptick from July. According to DappRadar data, NFTs had a market capitalization of $6.6 billion last month.
Ether (ETH), which recently pushed past the $4,000 milestone, has been a key driver behind the NFT market surge. At the time of writing, ETH traded above $4,600 and had a market capitalization of over $557 billion, according to CoinGecko.
Since many NFTs are based on the Ethereum mainnet, their sales and valuations are denominated in ETH. Because of this, bullish momentum of the crypto asset translates into higher market values and increased activity in the NFT space. At the time of writing, the top 10 NFT assets by market cap were Ethereum-based.

NFT market cap has surged 40% since July
CryptoPunks retains its spot as the top NFT collection by market capitalization. NFT Price Floor data shows that the collection is worth at least 526,900 ETH (about $2.4 billion).
In the last seven days, CryptoPunks had almost 4,200 ETH in volume, worth almost $20 million. During the week, the collection had 90 total sales, averaging at $217,331 per NFT.

Still, while BAYC leads in valuation, the Pudgy Penguins collection tops BAYC in terms of seven-day volume. DefiLlama data suggests that Pudgy Penguins had a volume of $8.7 million in the past week, while BAYC had $6.3 million.
In a Cointelegraph interview, Pudgy Penguins CEO and owner Luca Schnetzler (better known as Luca Netz) said the collection’s expansion into a physical toy brand saved the company from bankruptcy in 2022.
Since then, the collection has been a leading NFT brand, rivaling other blue-chip collections.
This week, blockchain company BTCS Inc. said it added three Pudgy Penguins to its corporate treasury.
