Over the past 24 hours, the non-fungible token (<a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/bybit-provides-nft-ticket-marketplace-for-robbie-williams-virtual-concert-more-top-nft-news.htm">NFT</a>) market sales volume has slightly decreased, less than 2%, to $35,310,744, with several big developments making NFT news rounds. 
Buyers are up 8%, sellers 3%, and transactions 9%, <a href="https://www.cryptoslam.io/">according</a> to CryptoSlam. 
Most of the top 10 collections by sales volume are up – and significantly so. 
The largest increase was recorded by CATS BRC-20 NFTs, jumping 4,876% in a day to the 10th place with $582,800. 
Speaking of <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/uk-police-seized-1-77-billion-in-bitcoin-from-chinese-investment-fraud-more-crypto-news.htm">Bitcoin</a>-based NFTs, <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/bitcoin-ordinals-will-play-a-pivotal-role-in-2024-more-top-nft-news-2.htm">Uncategorized Ordinals</a> are in first place with a sales volume of $2.77 million, having gone up 98%. 
And when it comes to Bitcoin, it is very close to <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/vitalik-buterin-discusses-challenges-between-crypto-and-ai-warns-tread-carefully.htm">Ethereum</a> today: the former’s sales volume is $10,778,162, while the latter’s is $11,127,275. 
While Bitcoin narrowed the gap between it and the throne-holder Ethereum, it widened it compared to <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/solana-price-prediction-as-sol-transaction-volume-reaches-record-high-1-trillion-adoption-rising.htm">Solana</a>. 
The two have been in <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/top-nft-news-today-25-january.htm">a battle</a> for second place for a while, but Solana currently has nearly half of Bitcoin’s volume: $5,772,470. 
Today in NFT news: Doodles partners with the luxury watch brand G-shock, Art Blocks acquires the Sansa marketplace, and card-battling sci-fi game Parallel nears its open beta launch.

The team has also <a href="https://opensea.io/collection/space-doodles-official">created</a> Space Doodles, described as “spaceships for your Doodle.” All Original Doodles receive a free ship, it added. The ship can launch into space “where it will sync with its pilot and establish attributes like “bladder management”, “piloting ability”, and more.” 
Meanwhile, the collection is up 25% over the past 24 hours to $423,746, <a href="https://www.cryptoslam.io/doodles">per</a> CryptoSlam. Over the past week, the volume is up 204% to $7,108,330. Sales, 30-day chart. Source: cryptoslam.io
