Buyer Acquires Six CryptoPunks for $2.9 Million Amid NFT Market Surge

A buyer invested over $2.9 million in six rare CryptoPunks with the hoodie trait, signaling a resurgence in the NFT market.

The purchase occurred on OpenSea following a rise in floor prices across key collections.
In the past 30 days, CryptoPunks increased by 29% to nearly 51 ETH (about $190,000).
Pudgy Penguins and Bored Ape Yacht Club rose by 66.7% and 9.8%, respectively.
The buyer now owns 12 CryptoPunks after acquiring all of the selected NFTs.
NFT market capitalization grew by 66% to $6 billion, with CryptoPunks' market share surpassing 30%.
Despite recent gains, the NFT sector remains significantly below its 2021-2022 peak of $16.6 billion.
Several major marketplaces have closed or shifted focus due to declining trading volumes.
