Notorious NFT trader Pranksy made the two biggest trades this week
An NFT trader first acquired CryptoPunk #6275 for $3.9 million, only to sell the same CryptoPunks NFT asset one day later for $5.1 million. Even though Loot turned out to be the biggest story in the NFT space last week, the biggest NFT flip happened with punk #6275. Of course, Pranksy made this trade.
Pranksy, an anonymous NFT trader, first acquired CryptoPunk #6275 for 1000 ETH, only to sell the same NFT a few hours later for 1320 ETH. The avid NFT trader and influencer made $1.2 million, probably in an effort to cleanse himself from the taint of the fake Banksy NFT he acquired last week. This put punk #6275 on the first two spots of the weekly Top 10.
In third place, we find Bored Ape #7090, which changed hands for $2.27 million last week. The rest of the chart is filled with Fidenza artworks and Autoglyphs.

Loot: the biggest story in NFT collections
With more than $205 million in trading volume, the Loot for Adventurers NFT collection has become the number one NFT product. It keeps both Axie Infinity ($151 million) and Art Blocks ($93 million) behind, while making a big impact.
DappRadar wrote a guide about Loot last week, as it spawned a wide variety of side products. Over the weekend Bloot, an independent project adding a comedy element, launched as well, generating $25.9 million in trading volume. Furthermore, Loot derivatives like The N Project and Extension Loot both made it into the Top 20.
