Sales of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) took a hit this past week, dropping by 11.16% compared to the previous week. 
Data from cryptoslam.io <a href="https://www.cryptoslam.io/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.cryptoslam.io/" target="_blank" rel="">shows</a> that this week’s total sales reached $144.33 million, with Bitcoin-based NFTs contributing more than $49 million to this total. However, despite the impressive figures, the sales of digital collectibles on Bitcoin (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="">BTC</a>) fell by 14.65%. 
NFTs on Ethereum (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/ethereum/" target="_blank" rel="">ETH</a>) generated $41.55 million in sales, also down by 11.7% from the prior week. Solana (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/solana/" target="_blank" rel="">SOL</a>) NFTs, ranking third in sales, earned nearly $26 million, experiencing a modest increase of 5.73% this week. 
Per cryptoslam, the Polygon (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/polygon/" target="_blank" rel="">MATIC</a>) network registered the fourth-highest <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/nft/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/nft/" rel="">NFT</a> sales volume over the previous seven days, raking in $9.66 million. 
However, the figure was a 14.2% dip compared to what NFT traders on the blockchain had sold at the same point a week ago. 
Wrapping up the top five blockchains by sales volume was Immutable (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/immutablex/" target="_blank" rel="">IMX</a>), which recorded a respectable $6.49 million in sales. 
The amount marked a more than 8% uptick, making Immutable the only other network among the top five whose sales volume improved across the timeframe.
