The non-fungible token, or NFT, market saw a 7.68% boost in sales volume this week, hitting $109 million, with notable activity on Ethereum (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/ethereum/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ETH</a>) and Polygon (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/polygon/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MATIC</a>) blockchains. 
However, this uptick came against a backdrop of massively declining numbers of NFT buyers and sellers, which plunged by 68.00% and 67.78%, respectively.&nbsp; 
Interestingly, even as the number of market participants went down, NFT transactions witnessed a substantial increase, skyrocketing by nearly 21% to reach 2,435,539 trades, according to <a href="https://www.cryptoslam.io/" target="_blank" rel="">data</a> from CryptoSlam. 
Here’s a comprehensive look at the key events and trends that shaped the <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/nft/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFT</a> landscape over the past seven days.

Among the blockchains, Ethereum maintained its position as the leading blockchain for NFT sales, generating $32,711,790 despite the prevalence of wash trading. 
However, the battle to occupy the second spot heated up over the week. Polygon <a href="https://crypto.news/polygon-surpasses-bitcoin-solana-in-daily-nft-sales-volume/" target="_blank" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/polygon-surpasses-bitcoin-solana-in-daily-nft-sales-volume/" rel="noreferrer noopener">overtook</a> Bitcoin (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BTC</a>) and Solana (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/solana/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">SOL</a>) after seeing a 90% rally in its NFT trading volume.&nbsp; 
Data shows that Polygon’s weekly NFT sales surpassed the $24 million mark, with an additional $3.1 million coming from wash trading.&nbsp; 
What is worth noting is that Polygon’s improved showing came even as the number of NFT buyers on the blockchain dropped by a massive 78.98%. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-solana-bitcoin-drop-strong">Solana, Bitcoin drop</h2> 
Third was Solana, which sold digital collectibles worth $22.7 million. This figure is a 2% drop from what the network raked in the previous week.&nbsp; 
However, Solana’s wash trading figures went up by more than 32%, translating into a slight 0.37% improvement in the chain’s total NFT sales numbers. 
Additionally, despite a 70% plunge, Solana had the highest number of unique buyers among the top 5 blockchains at 88,090. 
Traditionally known for its store-of-value proposition, Bitcoin continued to fight for relevance in the NFT space.&nbsp; 
The network earned about $15.1 million in NFT sales over the week, a nearly 5% drop from the previous week’s figures. This saw Bitcoin drop further to the #4 spot in terms of weekly sales volume.&nbsp; 
However, it was still miles better than the fifth-placed blockchain, Mythos (<a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/mythos/" target="_blank" rel="">MYTH</a>), which registered sales worth $4.16 million.

The DMarket collection on Mythos topped the charts this week among NFT collections, generating $3,915,145 in sales across 166,053 transactions.&nbsp; 
While this performance marks a 3.83% drop from the previous week’s numbers, it still underscores the increasing appeal of Mythos Chain as a platform for NFT trading.&nbsp; 
The DogeZuki Collection on Solana also made waves, raking $3,038,960 from 71,566 transactions. Market watchers suggest the collection’s popularity could highlight Solana’s capability to attract high-profile projects and maintain high buyer engagement. 
Other notable collections included Base Ape Polygon, which recorded $2,809,791 in sales, and Froganas, also on Solana, with $2,759,532.&nbsp; 
However, the biggest jump of the week came from another Solana collection dubbed “Send it,” with sales skyrocketing by 1752.43% to $2,723,251. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-high-profile-nft-sales-strong">High-profile NFT sales</h2>

Additionally, fan tokens, which are a growing frontier in NFTs, also made a significant impact this week, particularly on the Chiliz (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/chiliz/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CHZ</a>) blockchain:&nbsp; 
<ul>
