The secondary market for NFTs on Ethereum is currently being dominated by Hashmasks with 7250 ETH, or more than 12.1 million dollars, in trading volume in the past week. That’s more than all the secondary market trading combined, according to data from OpenSea.

With 12.1 million dollars in trading volume in the past seven days, Hashmasks is right behind market leader NBA Top Shot. The basketball collectibles did 12.7 million dollars in trading in the past 7 days according to data from CryptoSlam. However, NBA Top Shot works on the Flow blockchain, while Hashmasks has been created on Ethereum.
