Solana is the second-largest NFT ecosystem behind Ethereum, with an estimated market cap of $1.5b across its myriad collections. The Solana NFT space grew rapidly last fall on the back of rising collections like Solana Monkey Business, Degenerate Ape Academy, and Aurory. Solana offers faster, cheaper, and more energy-efficient transactions than Ethereum’s mainnet.
The Solana Monkey Business account tweeted, “We are setting sail monkees!” Meanwhile, Solana metaverse platform Portals tweeted that it “can't wait for Portals to be listed on OpenSea.” Meanwhile, Magic Eden—currently the largest NFT marketplace on Solana—simply tweeted, “bring it.”
