Although the NFT bubble has not burst yet, there is a continuous flow of capital into the crypto space. Besides this, the value of Crypto Punks and similar art collections has shot up.
The recent developments indicate that the fear, uncertainty and doubt regarding crypto seem to be rolling over now. There are reports of positive market signals in investment firms, besides a continued boom in non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Besides this, the nine-figure settlement by BitMEX has helped in easing the uncertainties even further.
