Cryptocurrencies and blockchain have entered our lives from different areas, one of which has been NFTs. The surge in interest in NFTs reached its peak in 2021 and 2022. Since then, a contraction in volume and a decrease in security may have led to fewer projects attracting attention in the market. Despite all this, <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/unprecedented-transaction-fee-for-a-simple-bitcoin-transfer-shocks-crypto-community/" data-wpel-link="internal">Bitcoin</a> (BTC) and Solana (SOL) have overtaken the position previously held by Ethereum (ETH) and started to stand out in the market as the new preferred destinations for NFT distributions.

Looking back at the past year, three out of every four NFT projects launched in 2023 were on the Bitcoin or Solana networks. On the Bitcoin side, Ordinals Inscriptions have brought significant interest and sparked debates within the Bitcoin community. 
When talking about Bitcoin NFTs, it is observed that they are unique. The mentioned NFTs are actually stored on the blockchain instead of centralized databases. In contrast, most NFT blockchains keep the mentioned NFTs secured by centralized services, usually an image, preserved with a fixed hash identity. 
Elon Musk also made a statement on X (formerly known as Twitter) in recent days to share his views on the subject. 
On the other hand, if we talk about Solana, it was the low fees and better network performance that made the difference between it and its strong competitors. According to the 2023 Developer Report published by Electric Capital, Solana’s ecosystem showed growth in 2023 after a disastrous 2022, and together with Bitcoin, they strengthened their power in this field with 75% of all NFT projects last year.

On the other hand, Ethereum (ETH), which attracted attention with massive NFT projects in the past, seems far from its glorious days. Ethereum’s position in NFT distribution has fallen to historic lows in 2023, a year when Bitcoin and Solana rose to the top. 
According to data provided by Electric Capital, a total of 14,560 NFT distributions were carried out across three blockchains at the end of just 2023. It was clearly seen that there was a change in the trend during this process.

It can be said that the NFT sector, which was thought to have ended at the end of 2022, has made a brighter start to the new year with the resurgence led by Inscriptions and supported by networks like Solana, the star of 2023. What developments may occur in the coming periods continues to be a matter of curiosity.
