The NFT market closed the week with its strongest performance in months; Bitcoin recorded its highest weekly close since January at $78,500. The CryptoPunks collection climbed to 30.95 ETH (approximately $72,000), gaining 16.2%. Bored Ape Yacht Club surpassed the 9.65 ETH level with two rare sales in the last 24 hours – Gold Fur 121.9 ETH and Trippy Fur 49 ETH. This rally was supported by $813 million in net inflows into Bitcoin ETFs over the week.

The market gained momentum with broad participation; collections like Azuki, BAKC, Azuki Elementals, Otherside Koda, Meebits, and MAYC showed double-digit gains. With OpenSea's incentive programs ending, the real supply-demand balance kicked in, unleashing demand suppressed for years by farming activities on platforms like Blur, Magic Eden, and OpenSea.
