Bored Ape and other blue-chip and premiere NFTs have been in a depressive state and down by more than 50% last month. BAYC has been robust and unassailable for several months despite the crypto market retreat, but the values are sliding now.
One of the apparent reasons for the decline is that Ethereum has also been down by 33% for the month following the Luna and UST stablecoin crashes. OpenSea trading volume has also suffered and has plunged by 40% for the past month.
The decline in the BAYC value is also largely attributed to the massive crypto crash that resulted in the waning of investor interest in all things NFT.
